Treasonous Left is trying hard to turn a minor presidential records dispute into a national ordeal.

Clinton, unlike Trump, did not have the power to declassify top secret documents, and the elite shrugged off her careless handling of them.

  • Now, liberals are demanding a criminal trial against Trump because he did not follow the exact protocols for doing so, and this is a sufficient reason for a nation-roiling criminal trial.

Even if one were to grant for the sake of argument that Trump did deviate from classification protocols, he is at worst guilty of the same sloppiness that FBI agents and Justice Department officials exhibit every day.

  • Implicit in all of the harrumphing over Trump's behavior is that the presidential benefits of the doubt given to his predecessors don't apply to him.
  • Even as president, he couldn't exercise the most basic executive powers without endless coverage treating his mere possession of such power as a scandal.
  • Beneath this latest sham controversy lies the same outrageous claim of an undemocratic elite - that Trump should never have had the power to declassify documents in the first place.
