Besides, I have pointed out in the past that Republicans and the DOJ investigated Hillary's emails for over a decade many times in the past. There is a clear record in this forum of me saying that, so any reasonable person would conclude I merely misspoke. As usual, I'm more than willing to let anyone who cares make up their minds about my intentions.

Yeah, you've got some really strong credibility there to call out anyone else Water Boy.

Yeah, that's not what I said. As usual, you {Rich} have a significant reading comprehension problem.

Jim, you really need to better understand the differences and the false equivalency between the Trump investigation and Hillary's emails:
https://abcnews.go.com/US/fbis-trump-investigation-hillary-clinton-email-probe-heres/story?id=89069046
and:
"A key difference between the two":
"Bradley Moss, a Washington-based lawyer who works on national security cases, said the cases of Clinton and Trump are significantly different."
“Trump took properly marked hard copy classified documents from the White House, shipped them to Florida, and stored them in an unsecured location at his residence,” Moss said."
"The presence of classified information in Clinton’s emails was less obvious."
“The e-mails were never marked as classified because these were communications from unclassified government accounts,” Moss said.
"When classified information was clearly involved, Blanton said Clinton’s “briefings were on a different system, a classified Blackberry that was managed by State Department IT people.”"As for the personal emails that Clinton erased, the FBI said its investigation might have found some of them. Overall, the agency said it was reasonably confident that there was no intentional misconduct."

Maybe I should just refer to you as pretzel boy!  

And yes, he did call 10s of millions of Americans traitors.  

Anything else??

Here's my problem with your first comment - probable cause does not equal guilt. You don't get arrested when a search warrant is executed for a reason. I realize the following statement is devoid of any political common sense, but why should Trump be treated differently than any other person? If ANYONE had secret documents improperly, they would get a call/knock on the door from the FBI. Hillary did, they just chose not to pursue a case. BTW I'm not defending Clinton having her own server and it was a serious offense in my opinion.

My own guess is that Trump is just an idiot and wanted these things for his own amusement, never thinking anyone would care about it. I 100% agree that if he's prosecuted for an infraction that really had no or little consequence, it would be catastrophic and they should drop the entire matter and essentially reprimand him for improperly handling sensitive information - LIKE WHAT HAPPENED TO HILLARY. Unfortunately, this idiot is so careless, he might have taken stuff that goes way beyond harmless, but only the Gov knows - Trump is too stupid to know of course.

Er, ah,  not only did he take the classified material and leave it haphazardly laying around, as per the FBI photos of it released today, he also claimed that he returned it via his lawyer's signed claim to that effect. That's not all he did, and the rest is just as serious, but I wanted to clarify your statement.
