A week after his second post-presidential arrest, this one for his alleged mishandling of classified documents after leaving the White House, Donald Trump turned to Fox News host Bret Baier on Monday to make the case for why he should lead the country again. But he ended up essentially confessing to the crime of which he’s accused: stealing and sharing top-secret government information.
Before that, however, Baier pressed Trump to explain why he kept the boxes of classified materials at Mar-a-Lago and refused to comply with government requests to return them, as described in his new felony indictment. In between dismissing the case as “the document hoax” or accusing other presidents of illegally hoarding their own sensitive documents, Trump offered the bizarre explanation that he couldn’t give up the boxes to authorities because they also contained… his clothes.
“Like every other president I take things out,” Trump said. “In my case, I took it out pretty much in a hurry. People packed it up and left. I had clothing in there, I had all sorts of personal items in there. Much, much stuff.” After a brief digression to call his former attorney general Bill Barr a “coward,” Trump reiterated, “I have got a lot of things in there. I will go through those boxes. I have to go through those boxes.

I feel like I’m watching a Shakespeare play with this dude FFS.
He is everything I hate about myself and everyone all forced into a big dramatic reenactment on the world stage.
He’s the Juice™️
I laughed out loud reading his quote aloud.
“Much much stuff”
As a non American I cannot wait to see him behind bars both to not be able to fuck with world politics and to finally stop hearing about his delusional fucking ramblings.
Over half of us Americans feel the same way
Unfortunately him being convicted wouldn’t get rid of him from the media perspective.
It be the first time any president in this country went to prison over crimes committed while in office. They will milk that to death and we will be getting sound bits from him in prison for long time.
Our only hope is he fucking dies and then maybe then we won’t have to hear about him anymore. I just hope that once done with him they go after the rest of the family.
