But Trump himself? Is an imbecile. I mean literally, his intellectual capacity is equivalent to a child. He obsesses about details which may as well be imaginary (remember duct tape women & vicious Mexican cars?). He MOST DEF does not remember what was in 33 boxes = 91,665 pages
On the Extortion file, it is highly likely Trump remembers one or two main 'faults' of any potential target he can remember, of his current or potential enemies. What is sexual preference of #LeningradLindsey Graham for example. But the REST of Extortion files no. Won't remember
As to 'did FBI get all files' - quite plausible no, if they now 18 months later recovered 11,425 documents beloning to USA (about 79,975 pages) I would promise some are missing. BUT FBI had MULTIPLE informants inside Mar-A-Lago and decided NOT to even search Trump other homes
The US Government knew EXACTLY what classified documents are at large, as of 21 January 2021, and who had taken them from Trump Admin. I am confident, the actual secrets were monitored closely, but Trump was given the chance to go criming himself to espionage, but without damage
My very specific confidence comes out of that DOJ action of NOT searching Trump other homes. Remember Giuliani? This same DOJ searched Rudy's home, AND his office, AND his 18 phones. They KNEW Rudy had evidence of crimes on all those. But same FBI asked only 1 warrant for Trump
I am very confident that FBI knew, from multiple sources - at least 5 and possibly as many as 12 near Trump - who were 'civilians'. I expect MORE rats are from Trump US Secret Service detail (would make sense). I am very confident, FBI kept US secrets safe from enemies
Coming back to the question.. it is quite likely there are thousands of pages of US governemnt documents lost, and/or in homes of various Trumpomobsters etc. But those would not be the 325 classified documents that Trump stole. I expect at least MOST of them have been recovered
As to last point. Trump being panicky? Agree 100%. That tells us Trump is in fear. He did NOT make copies for himself. If he did not NEED to get those files back (or to get to see them) he would be laughing on TV about how this is a witch hunt, & those documents were meaningless

I've told you that the fastest path to take Trump to prison is the NY Tax Fraud path (= Weisselberg Path). In it Michael Cohen was convicted
Allen Weisselberg just pleaded guilty
Trump kids go to trial next year
And Trump in 2024
This is the CIVIL part, with criminal charges next
So please understand. NY Tax Fraud (Weisselberg Path) is the FASTEST way to take Trump to prison. And as NY AG Letitia James runs a 'fast track' in this case, even then Trump will be tried last, his kids tried next. & this means Trump own trial is likely in year 2024. Civil trial
The NY AG has already told us in court filings, that there were crimes also she found - out of the 2 million pages of fraudulent financial records she has that caused Trump accountant Weisselberg to flip. So yes, this NY civil case WILL RESULT in criminal charges on Trump too
Remember this moment three weeks ago? Trump went silent for about a day. It VERY rarely happens, and essentially always that turns out to be horrid news for Trump.
Think back over past 3 weeks, what has been worst news for Trump? Yes, this Special Master gambit has misfired catastrophicaly - BUT that is not news that happened TO Trump. It is Trump stupidly damaging himself. AND it builds on Espionage-A-Lago. That spygate 'news' was from Aug
What's the other horrid news for Trump? The NY Attorney General lawsuit that will terminate Trump businesses AND costs him $250 million (money that he does not have) AND had referrals to IRS (millions more to pay) AND has CRIMINAL referral
I was struck by the proportion of PERSONAL documents in files FBI took from Mar-A-Lago. It is VERY small, considering 13,000 documents:
87% US government owned documents
vs
13% Trump own docs incl his taxes, medical records etc..
So consider 13,095 documents in total seized from Mar-A-Lago under legal search warrant by FBI
11,425 of those documents belong to USA. Will not be subject to any client-attorney privilege etc
Only 1,670 of the seized documents were personal docs of Trump. That's quite little
When I think of those 1,670 documents that did not belong to USA, we know it included financial records and/or taxes that Trump was hiding from New York, against a subpoena. It is a crime. Those records will be given to NY (and other tax authorities like IRS)
What was Trump's serial financial fraud about? It was a pyramid scheme to sustain an illusion that Trump is a 'Billionaire'. Trump used his name to borrow money, bought bad properties, claimed them to be worth more than they are, then borrow more money to buy more bad properties
Trump is caught, because NY has the double accounting by Trump's accountant of 40 years, Allen Weisselberg. So they can PROVE all this
Let's start. In real estate, you measure size of the property, square feet, acres etc. Trump claimed larger area than he actually owned
Trump would also count as usable areas which he was not allowed to develop. For example areas with zoning restrictions, where part were not in his control (he'd still include it as his) or massively exceeding the number of units he had a licence to build
So Trump's gambit of the Special Masterbater went horribly wrong
His Magapuppet judge, Loose Cannon: Come On Aileen, did give Trump the Special Master
And DOJ even accepted 1 of 2 judges Trump nominated for it
What happened and... why this ploy?
Special Master Thread 2/
Ignore ALL Trump or his Propaganda parrots said on TV
The reality is in court filings
Even Trump (attorneys) knew Trump will NEVER get the 103 Classified Documents returned. So why that major - and costly - legal maneuver? Trump wanted 'something'
Special Master Thread 3/
The Special Master instructions filings tell us what was the plan by Trump & attorneys. They asked Trump attorneys to be allowed to review the 103 classified documents - in a secure room, Trump even hired highly-paid new lawyer with Top Secret clearance
How's your war going in Ukraine? Did I misunderstand? Wasn't it supposed to last 3 days. It's been like 7 months?
I'm miserable. NY caught me in decades of tax fraud. Hannity tricked me into explaining my method of winning by thinking. Could you just call me
My Sweetest Trumpy-Pumpkin
Daddy's a bit busy with this war in Ukraine. My incompetent army lost the battle of bloody Izyum & is now retreating in fucking Kherson
I'm so gonna send 300,000 more soldiers to go & die in Ukraine. And I'm not going to give them any modern weapons!
Dearest Chairman Kim Jong-Un
My people are deserting me. Senator Thune said that I can't declassify documents by just thinking it! And now the FBI took the love letters you wrote me. The Special Master won't return them to me!
