And Trump showed the highly classified documents to people who DID NOT have a 'need to know'.
I worked at the Pentagon and held a Top Secret clearance. Trump is in deep shit.
If there's no proof of that, it makes no difference what you think he intended.
But that doesn't matter. There's enough there to send him up the river for a long, long time.
A long, long time.
Trump is fucked.
Was she really all that wrong folks?

'Would it be better if we just told them we don't have them?'
'This is a top secret document, I shouldn't be showing this to you'
I can't wait to hear the explanation from the right wing nutters.
Isn't Charleton Heston dead and rotting in his grave? Very appropriate meme for a dying Republiclown party.
What i look forward to the most is that Trump really needs to take the stand and make the case himself to the jury, since his entire defense is based on his beliefs.
No defendant is forced to take the stand but this case almost uniquely requires Trump to do so to have a defense. Otherwise the laws will just be read into the record and there will be no statements of Trumps beliefs (heresy) if he is not the one making those arguments and trying to convince the jury it is a 'reasonable'.
Trump on the stand under cross examination is any lawyers dream. He will end up with 150 perjury charges by the time they are done with questioning him and even if he got off on these charges, he would then stand trial for all the perjury.
But almost certainly he would make the prosecutors case stronger ("that is Marla"..."she is not my type") while also getting 150 new perjury charges. I hope they allow camera's in so we can watch the case live.
Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene alleges the Department of Justice has committed “37 counts of election interference” by charging Trump 37 times.
Texas Senator Ted Cruz called the charges “an assault on democracy”. “This indictment is garbage. This is a political attack,” he said on his personal podcast.
Utah Senator Mitt Romney, who has repeatedly feuded with Trump in the past, released a scathing statement. “Trump brought these charges upon himself by not only taking classified documents, but by refusing to simply return them when given numerous opportunities to do so,” he said.
Arizona Congressman Andy Biggs tweeted "We have reached a war phase. An eye for an eye".
