I like your interpretation. I hope Garland is ready to lead the charge.

I don’t see how they can challenge it in Court at all. Seems to me that Trump has no standing as he is not the president or in charge of the Executive branch and personnel and exercises no control of the documents. They aren’t his, they’re ours.
I just wish this piece of garbage was locked up in the most miserable two bit prison imaginable for the rest of his miserable life.

TFG wouldn’t be the one challenging, it will be the subpoenaed parties, and they very much do have standing since it’s their bodies being considered for the hoosegow.

You’re making the unwarranted assumption that Bannon has done absolutely nothing since leaving the White House. And Bannon is counting on folks believing that nothing he did outside of the White House could possibly be relevant.

There is plenty of time to pass a new law stating that convicted felons cannot run for federal office. In many states felons cannot vote yet they can run for president. Furthermore, former office holders who are convicted of crimes committed while in office should lose all benefits.

Ex-presidents get a say in what the National Archive should release, and they can take the executive privilege claim to court if the current guy decides it should be released anyway.

President Biden has determined that an assertion of executive privilege is not in the best interests of the United States, and therefore is not justified as to any of the documents
The only secrets Trump has pertain to his own crimes. And, yes, plural, myriad, incessant, endless, perverted… stop me, somebody…

That would get abused faster than you can say “Gavin Newsom convicted of a felony. In Texas, where he’s never set foot.” Also, it would take a constitutional amendment. The supreme court has repeatedly ruled that only the constitution may define qualifications to be president.

That seemed wrong, but then I checked the US Constitution. I had thought that there was a clause where a candidate needed to be “a qualified elector” – that is, eligible to vote – but it isn’t in there. That wording may be peculiar to New Mexico.
The good news? Trump will probably not be able to run from here.

Guess TFG only has Former Executive Privilege; i.e., he can go pound sand.

Which of course is on the list of things that made it so important to assure they had a supermajority on the SCOTUS before trying Operation End Game.

Upon the expiration of the 60-day period (excepting Saturdays, Sundays, and legal public holidays) beginning on the date the Archivist provides notice under paragraph (1)(A), the Archivist shall make available to the public the Presidential record covered by the notice
A former President or the incumbent President may extend the period under subparagraph (A) once for not more than 30 additional days (excepting Saturdays, Sundays, and legal public holidays) by filing with the Archivist a statement that such an extension is necessary to allow an adequate review of the record.
So, though it’ll probably be moot due to courts taking more time, at minimum an ex-prexy can delay release of docs by 90 business days, or 18+ weeks.
