FBI Raids Mar A Lago

Probable cause. Can even rely on “hearsay information”.

Thank you for your input but can you answer my question?

What’s with the obsession of fantasizing Trumps downfall?

What’s with the obsession of fantasizing Trumps downfall? Feel like I’ve seen a million versions of it.

Not an obsession but...

Some feel Trump deserves everything that is coming at him. Look at it as the light version of "Celebrate the death of those you feel deserve to die".

That would be election deniers.

Makes sense

[aygart]

That would be election deniers.

True. Many of them are the same ones who did that in 2016.

[TimT]

That would be election deniers.

They come in all shapes, sizes, & beliefs.

[CountValentine]

Makes sense

If you have people running on the right and winning saying they would not have certified the last election and thinking that makes sense then you don't need to answer if you are an election denier. 

[CountValentine]

True. Many of them are the same ones who did that in 2016.

Just about the whole R Arizona slate is election deniers. Never seen that before that I remember.

[yuneeq]

Not an obsession but...

Celebrate his defeats and troubles. But fantasizing about it seems unhealthy to me.

[CountValentine]

Celebrate his defeats and troubles.

That is what is going on or do you think people wake up thinking about him? 

[aygart]

That is what is going on or do you think people wake up thinking about him? 

There are definitely some people who wake up thinking about him.

Thank you for your input but can you answer my question?

I answered you. It says there’s probable cause to believe a crime was committed & that a search will reveal…

What constitutes probable cause is up to the judge.

Obsession?  Not exactly.  I save that for chocolate.
Not thinking about Trump's downfall at all, rather about the documents. 
The comments thus far have followed Trump's telling of the story, with its focus on criticizing the DOJ, FBI, the WH, the Democrats, the search/raid, bemoaning how Trump has been victimized... everything except the documents.
I thought it would be interesting to pivot the conversation to the documents themselves, to hear some original ideas from those who've been following the news for the past few years think might be so crucial that it would warrant this sort of intervention.

You know there were a bunch of D lawmakers who didn't vote to certify the results in 2016, right? The very same ones who decried R lawmakers as being treasonous for doing the same in 2020.

I think it's a recipe for Pareve Cholent that Hillary Clinton gave Trump in a printed email that they're after.

Thanks for the clarification.

Then put them in the ED class. Which Secretary of State didn't certify or said they wouldn't?

I expected to hear something from FBI/DOJ by now.

Garland to make a statement shortly.
