An audio recording in which Donald Trump appears to acknowledge keeping a classified document after leaving the White House has been obtained by US media.

In the recording, the former president is heard riffling through papers and saying: “This is highly confidential.”

    Exactly. Mike Pence and at least one other also, except that theirs was accidental and they are fully cooperating with the investigations. It doesn’t seem to matter how much or how blatantly Trump does illegal shit, he’ll always be right in their eyes. I guess that’s what happens when the only information sources you believe are also the largest purveyors of untruths on our planet.

      There’s that, absolutely, but I also think a lot of folks making the argument that Biden did it too don’t actually believe the argument — it’s just empty words they can use to shift the argument away from Trump.
