Donald Trump has repeatedly called for lengthy jail sentences for those who he claimed mishandled classified information

(CNN)Former President Donald Trump has repeatedly called for the lengthy jailing of opponents of his who he claimed mishandled classified materials.

CNN's KFile reviewed comments from the former President, dating back to his first presidential campaign in 2016, from speeches, interviews and comments made on social media.

The former President is in potential legal jeopardy after the Justice Department's search of his Mar-a-Lago residence last month retrieved more than 100 classified documents, with the DOJ alleging that US government documents were "likely concealed and removed" from a storage room at the Florida resort as part of an effort to "obstruct" the FBI's investigation. More than 320 classified documents have now been recovered from Mar-a-Lago, the Justice Department said, including more than 100 in the FBI search earlier this month.

Speaking in 2016 about the government's decision not to charge Hillary Clinton with crimes related to their investigation into her handling of classified material and use of a private email server while she was secretary of state, then-candidate Trump repeatedly promised that his administration would strictly enforce all rules regarding classified material.

This whole "CNN is the new Fox News" meme seems off to a bumpy start.

4. The problem that many of us have,

is the in your face lies when there is incontrovertible and well publicized evidence to the contrary and allowing that stuff to take over the airwaves. And it seems from some reporting that CNN is conceding and going to allow this in order to get MAGA to visit them.

5. Their lurch to the right is ot a myth

6. Trump change the law concerning that into felony

But if you never arrest him in the 1st place what difference does it make

7. Your one article pales in comparison to the multiple firings...

...and change in tone from those that have not been fired, all of which have been posted on here already.

And I wouldn't be surprised if Andrew Kaczynski gets the axe sooner or later as well, with this well documented and reported shift in direction that CNN is taking, regardless of how much you want to put your head in the sand and ignore it.
