Like most things, it didn’t become a real story until 2016.

Bill will have a mysterious storage unit fire that will drive conspiracy theories for decades, but nothing will be found.

But only if the political environment was the same, or similar, then as that of today.

I suspect he’s learned to be paranoid and already did the search and return before a very loud public announcement was required to pacify the deplorables … in the electorate and the press.

Joe has been handling this better than most…and his persona demands much more control than a person like Trump does.

Biden unleashing a fraction of the verbal immaturity of Trump would have been a story in itself.

It has never been about just having overlooked documents in the (what must be) massive amount of documents that a President moves out after a Presidency (especially an 8 year stint). It has always been about Trump being in possession of any sensitive information that he would be suspected of selling or giving in exchange for favors. None of the other Presidents have given cause for this kind of concern.
And we have yet to find out if Donnie did sell or trade any of the information. We may never know unless agents disappear, or we are cyberattacked by China in ways that tie to the documents that were in his damn desk drawer.

Every part of his presidency was approached knowing he’d be held to a different standard.

I expect this is no exception.

Moreover, Republicans were already on about locking HRC up over classified docs. No way Obama’s team didn’t pay special attention to that on their exit

The former is unfortunately seen as more serious than the latter.

The current House majority has a role in this, but so does the public’s lack of understanding.

This right here ^. Trump was refusing to believe that he lost, thus he wasn’t ready to move on, or out.

And again it wasn’t that he had papers, it was he denied having them, he played games about giving them back.
