Those documents are NOT legally his, but the upcoming indictments will be ALL his!

Now if only someone would indict Trump and move the United States toward conviction against Trump we'd all rest easier. Thanks.

"These are mine", he has the mindset of a child, a young child and he has many followers who think the same way...wow.

[animusadvertere]

Sure, it has confessed repeatedly for years. And yet the American “Justice “ system is too weak to do anything about it. Not even Italy would put up with this level of corruption. Pathetic.

"They were mine". So the documents were not planted. Got it. Thanks for clearing that up Donnie.

[MLIOGJXNUYAT]

The confession also removes the "The FBI planted them" defense.

[larryfoster]

Lol did he just hand them witnesses along with a confession. If he doesn’t go to jail for treason or idk the espionage act then we should all be free of charges

"Donald Trump confessed."
Indeed he did.
Trump has the right to remain silent.
I, for one, I'm so glad he has waived that right. Keep talking, Donny boy.
By all means, keep talking.

[BjornAgain]

Ha ha...
The glee in Lawrence's eyes while he tells the story.

He has been confessing to a multitude of crimes for years and yet the justice department has done nothing !

[shoveitupyoura]

It was HILARIOUS to see how quiet the crowd got!! They had "deer in the headlights"look on their faces!! They truly didn't know what to do!! They had HUH?? look, didn't know if they should clap, but they just kinda sat there, making the few claps he got even more noticeable and HILARIOUS!!He tried soo hard to back pedal, instantly.."It wasn't a crime, wasn't a crime.." OMG, LITERALLY ROTFL!! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣BUSTED!!

[alhiggins]

It's LITERALLY a crime for him to possess top secret government documents at his home.

[Opus]

He confessed...

Lock him up already!

[allenparker]

Enough ... they obviously fear this man.

Christina Bob should be in legal jeopardy... I believe you could make the case that she at a minimum intended to mislead and the lawyer who prepared the document didn't want to sign knowing that the statements given were false. Why else have the document re-written? You have have two people conspiring/colluding to make false statements in a certified document. Worse yet they are lawyers trying to be savvy by signing a document in which they know they lied and using language to try and maneuver around these false statements. As a legal system prosecutors need to hammer home to a judge, what was the intention and was there colluding to make false statements and were the false statements made to benefit their client's ability to illegally retain Top Secret documents. Gotta pursue this stuff. Anyone else would go to jail for this and at a minimum the both of them should loose their licenses.

[kurtisengle]

If only we had a justice system. We could do something about this.

[Phase]

Can we put him on trial and then in prison and be done with him. I am sick of the "man".

[avaspielberg]

Funny, One doesn't see his children standing by his side (anymore?)

[billybegood]

When I was in the Air Force, I had Top Secret clearance and worked in a classified documents room. I GUARANTEE that if I had taken a SINGLE PAGE home with me, I would have been in jail in less than 24 hours.

He’s said the documents were his several times since the FBI raided Mar-a-lago
