Poking through the even more extreme websites, the story is that Trump wanted to get indicted SO THAT he could reveal he’s been president this whole time and indict Biden.— Raffi Melkonian (@RMFifthCircuit) June 10, 2023

It won’t surprise me if “the resistance” is like five random dudes.
These people are thick and deluded but (and maybe this is silly to think) after 1/6 the vibe among law enforcement is probably “fuck around and find out” on the streets, not just months later in court.

one thing is that the jan 6 prosecutions have really spooked them, now whenever you see a call for violence theres people immediately accusing the person of being a fed, which doesnt mean no ones going to try anything just that the public rabble rousing organizing that led to jan 6 is in a tough spot

I’ve been thinking that the vigorous prosecution of Proud Boys and Oath Keepers is also having the positive effect of ramping down on organized political violence that could be causing mayhem no and in the run up to the elections.

idk it's still kind of a mystery, given his strange deferential relationship with Putin and Kim Jong Un plus the very shady looking deals Kushner got it wouldn't surprise me if he's just straight up selling government secrets. but also Trump is the one guy who might just take this stuff because he thought it was cool, or maybe out of bitterness, I know for most people it wouldn't matter but in this case I think it will

“It's not theirs; it's mine,” several advisers say Mr. Trump told them.

Occam's razor in full effect. Why did Trump take them? Because he is a selfish, shortsighted, self-obsessed moron.
― Josh in Chicago, Monday, 12 June 2023 16:17 (ten months ago) link
what's really funny is Trump was reported as frustrating all the records people when he was in office, because any time he's finished with anything, it was reported he'd habitually crumple up whatever it was he was reading and throw it in the trash. so someone's job was to fish things out and uncrumple them because there are rules about presidential record retention
presumably he needed as many documents as possible because he's wrecking them after waving them around and bragging
― mh, Monday, 12 June 2023 16:25 (ten months ago) link
The example in the indictment was Trump using the documents to prove that deep state people (i.e. Gen. Milley) were lying about him in the press.
