Impossible. Not going to happen. If you've been following the news lately, you can see the man is unhinged. Everyday he says something stupid or self-incriminating. Yesterday, I read he's attacked his his former White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany. He claims she understated his poll numbers to Ron DeSantis by calling her "Milktoast" and many conservative republicans are saying Trump's comments have become insane, pathetic and unacceptable. Some have called his last attack “a canary in the coal mine” moment for the former president.
Last week, he claimed if elected, he will change the constitution.
Oh? I wasn't aware presidents had such powers.
He's still bumping in the night over what is and what should never be regarding documents taken from the White House. The lies exceed the truths. I read his attorneys have briefed him on the possible outcome of the investigation.

When Trump left the White House, he took documents that should have been turned over to the National Archives. Months of back-and-forth and a subpoena got some returned. Somewhere along the way, his lawyers said all the documents were returned, but they had wrong information. The FBI conducted a search to get the documents back and If you recall, Trump went on social media and in the news complaining about how the search was conducted.
Maybe you one of the ones who sided with Trump, not only for the way the search was conducted but that he had rights to keep the documents in question. That search was about 9 months ago.
We're not done yet.
I heard some things today that are news (to me) where some of the Mar-a-Lago staff revealed they were instructed to do a dress rehearsal of moving boxes a day before the search and at least one of Trump's attorneys was present for the search.
I didn't pay attention to the second part, which is more significant.
While Trump claimed it was a surprise, it appears Corcoran, one of his his legal advisers confirmed the date with FBI when they could meet to pick up the documents.
Did Trump know or did he not know the date they were to arrive for the search?
We do know he was away and It was stated he was watching via the surveillance cameras.
So far, none of this is looking to be in favor of Trump. At the CNN televised meeting he admitted to having the documents and believes he has the right to retain them.

E. Jean Carroll won her defamation suit against Donald J. Trump where the court ordered him to pay nearly $5 million. During the trial he was posting offensive comments about the woman despite the judges warning. My opinion, was the judge should have given a demand and not a request. That way, he could have been found in contempt and a night in jail would have been a clear message... they could have picked him up at the airport on his return from his Scottish golfing trip.
Right after the court decision, like nothing happened, he again defamed Carroll in a televised town meeting and again after in a rally. Obviously, he hasn't learned to STFU and on Monday, Carroll's lawyers amended the lawsuit, seeking at least $10 million more in a court filing that seeks to hold him liable for additional remarks he made
after the verdict.
How many more times...

What was it, last week when Donald J. Trump attended the CNN Town Hall meeting and stated he was allowed to take classified documents when leaving the White House?
Apparently, that wasn't a good thing as his lawyer Tim Parlatore, announced a few days later that he's leaving the team.
Trump remains under federal investigation for mishandling classified documents as he left the White House in January 2021.
Personally, I think they are dragging this out...
How much more proof is the government looking for?
I'm curious if Parlatore will get paid for his services.
