Allow me to add 1 conservative media source. The past 2 days I’ve posted CNN and NBC. When Sandy Berger was told by the National Archives that documents were missing, HE LIED! The Dems tried to cover for the Clintons and Berger, saying he only had “copies of documents” and all the originals remained in the governments’ possession. Will similar standards be applied to Trump? We should all remember that Berger was trying to prepare for the 9/11 commission. Does your reasoning for having the documents, change how we should judge or criticizes people who have classified documents? Berger admitted that twice in 2013, he removed classified anti-terror documents by putting them in his jacket, his pants and in a leather case. Apparently this was a “mistake”; I’m guessing these documents accidentally fell into his pants?
