Fact 2: Nowhere in the indictment does Special Counsel Jack Smith discuss classified documents at Trump's Bedminster, NJ resort
Fact 3: This was never going to be Trump's word vs. whoever made the recording. Trump had multiple staff in the room at the time this meeting occurred.
Conjecture: this is going to turn out to be exactly what Trump claims it is: him showing off newspaper clippings and magazine articles that were obviously not classified. Clippings and articles based on leaks claiming Trump was about to 'wag the dog' and start a war with Iran to try to hold on to his presidency. And Milley and the MIC courageously stepped up and thwarted him.
Jack Smith's SCO leaked this audiotape to build public consensus against Trump to try to boost an already extremely weak case headed for trial in August.
If Smith does not demonstrate to Judge Aileen Cannon's satisfaction that he intends to introduce evidence at trial that Trump was exposing classified material he wasn't allowed to have at this meeting in Bedminster, NJ?
She's gonna absolutely fucking shred him for this leak.
This is just my opinion.
The documents revealed in this audio will turn out to not be classified. It will turn out that it was a trap set for a suspected spy to see how fast and what route the information got back to Iran. If it was a trap, the evidence was documented. Trump and the whitehats don't make mistakes.
The trap likely succeeded, and the traitors are now demanding Trump show them the rat that was caught. They just don't know what they're asking for yet.
Right. Have they not learned their lesson(s)?
I agree. They laughed every time they mentioned the classified status and Trump seemed to be really emphasizing the word. It sounded to me that the document was obviously not classified.
Cates is wrong here. Look at paragraph 6 starting on the second page. Two incidents at Bedminster are discussed.
I think his conjecture is off as well. The staff and interviewers in the room have probably already testified to the grand jury
Well it's evidence already turned over to Trump's lawyers.
Also there are strategic reasons, this audio could have come from Trump's lawyers.

No document, no case.
they're just throwing shit at the wall and hoping it sticks. They're desperately hoping for a convincing lie that people will believe without proof. I feel that this is how the pulled so much bullshit in the past.. the " wrap-up smear " kind of leaky investigation. The investigation has nothing solid so they leak bullshit to the press and the public attention justifies their further investigation.
Well it's not working so well anymore, look what happened to Alvin Bragg.
Is shred him like a more strongly worded letter or tweet ?
