Why did Trump take top Secret Nuclear documents?

Probably just to piss off the feds, he is the ultimate troll after all, he loves the attention as all trolls do. It’s their fuel.

pretty much every US president when their term is up, just disappears into the ether, odd speaking engagement or charity lunch. Trump is on TV giving his jaw some exercise every few days… nonstop practically.

google ‘Donald trump interview’…the borefest of a human is all over the place.

Why did he take them ? I mean imo he did it because he’s never been told no in his nearly 80 years of life and that’s fine to a point when he was just a private citizen but when you’ve done what you like, how you like it all your life, with little to no consequences for your actions, then it’s not really a surprise that’s it’s come to this because he felt he could.

To clarify: the search warrant receipt that his lawyers signed showed a single box of TS/SCI (Top Secret material and Secured Compartmentalized Information, which is beyond top secret classification and is physical, inventory-controlled, airgapped intel) which was reported to be about 11 different articles of various things they can’t even otherwise confirm for reasons of national security but for which the media has anonymous sourcing suggesting it is nuclear weapon secrets as well as US spy and informant payrolls. Many military watchers are assuming signals intelligence too, which would reveal things like what secure communications the US is capable of decrypting and intercepting across the world. Information that, if leaked, could result in the immediate death of spies or informants, the damaging lost of signals intelligence sources, or even upend the status quo on Mutually Assured Destruction doctrine which, nobody needs to be told, is bad.

For the moment we have no concrete proof of what SCI was taken and, ideally as regard the US, we will never have it confirmed. But DOJ has a 98% conviction rate and they wouldn’t raid TFG without having him dead to rights - either because informants at MAL tipped them off directly, or they accidentally returned some TS/SCI to the national archives earlier this spring (which was reported) or, even scarier potentially, they might have seen the TS/SCI leaked out in the wild since Trump left office.

Wanna bet: he took a US top secret spy satellite photo of Mar a Lago? It would be so on brand of him. It’s not like he hasn’t leaked our spy sat capabilities and resolution etc. before. Perfect for his vanity, a lovely space-view of his “beautiful home”

Don’t discount the possibility they WERE photocopies. Which would be a dead to rights situation. Making copies of TS/SCI? Snowden did this.

One has to be quite simple minded to think that "Trump had taken multiple boxes of top secret documents relating to the US nuclear weapons program and kept them at his golf resort."

He would have to be complete crackhead to keep incriminating evidence on his laptop and then willingly hand it over to total stranger...

Oh nevermind, that is different story. Yeah, is he a crackhead to keep "nuclear weapons program" documents in his safe? Trump's safe is boring. I would be more interested to see what was in Epstein's safe.

But Hunter Biden/Jeffrey Epstein seems to be the gist of it

Fox: “Judge who signed warrant had ties to Epstein case”

Fox: “here to talk about Trumps political persecution please welcome Alan Dershowitz”

…

imagine he was arrested .. be unbelievable

Because his handlers asked him to.

Everyone wants their golden parachute when they get kicked out of a job, trump was lining his pockets

No?

Well, Biden's laptop supposedly held a lot of "evidence" about whole family shady dealing not to mention juniors drug and hookers escapades but somehow nothing happened to anyone... Epstein's safe also rumored to be stuffed with video and pictures of his visitors engaging in some shady business with his underage "friends and employees" - nothing of that ever seen light of the day... Now Trump's cellar supposedly holding boxes of nuclear weapons documentation, someone even mentioned nuclear "codes"...Throw in Loch Ness monster for good measure which supposedly exists according to latest "news"...

This all show how most of the public is gullible and lap up every craziness spouted around because "if it was in the news it must be true" :)

Investigations happen because of evidence, there is nothing yet to be seem from a credible source about this supposed laptop with evidence . Still yet to hear anything but whataboutery from the right in defence of trump potentially trading top secret documents with adversary nations

Given trump's well documented inability to fill a venue, I doubt that's a bread winner for him. And he doesn't have much to say bar the debunked stolen election, the longevity of his speaking circuit wouldn't be great

It's not like he's getting a percentage of the box office on those kinds of speeches. It's a set fee for speaking at private dinners and gatherings. Considering Trump got more votes than any other Republican presidential candidate in history, I'd say he'd be able to get enough offers to speak for big money to make it worth his while.
