> It is very common for some records to need to be returned during and after a presidency. It is NOT AT ALL common for presidents to refuse those requests. THAT is the difference.
We agree here, although it has nothing to do with my argument. Keeping the documents is the crime, not refusing to give them back.
No, refusing to comply with the records request is what was so unusual. You’re trying to pretend like it was normal. It very much was not. That’s why Trump is facing charges and Biden is not. Trumps investigation was well founded, and Bidens was political fodder for your side to create a false equivalency. But again, you don’t care. This is all just window dressing. The right doesn’t care about due process or justice anymore. This is all just theater while your side calls for bloodshed. You’ve gone mask off, you don’t have to pretend anymore. Be yourself! Admit that you’re thirsty for a dictator or a king.

Now you just have me wondering if you really know how to read 🤣 Is the claim that refusing to comply with records requests is normal in the room with us right now?

Nope! It was because "It would be difficult to convince a jury that they should convict him — by then a former president well into his eighties — of a serious felony that requires a mental state of willfulness"
