Why is this case even going to trial. Trump isn't denying that he had documents. His argument is that he had the right to have them based on the Presidential Records Act. The issues are: does the Presidential Records Act permit the President to keep and maintain documents, if the Presidential Records Act does permit Trump to have the documents, can the Espionage Act be used to circumvent the Presidential Records Act when there is no espionage and was Jack Smith lawfully appointed and could he bring the case in the first place (Ed Meese brief). These are all legal issues that should be decided at summary judgment and BEFORE anybody worries about what box moved where. All of these cases are the same. They have serious legal issues that should have been resolved before even looking at the facts. I cannot understand how these bogus cases have gotten this far..

Walt Nauta is indicted for moving boxes - not destroying them - without knowledge that the FBI had even issued a subpoena. Joe Biden’s ghostwriter destroys evidence that Biden provided him classified documents. He’s not indicted. This tells you everything you need to know.
