I think they are going to give him a pass.

Is that cynical of me?

Hey Skipper, Seaman shmuckatelli took a briefcase full of secret message traffic to his apartment in town which he shares with two civilian roommates. He said he had mishandled them and he is sorry. should we give him a pass?

When we mishandle a phone call we hang up, cringe, and wish we had phrased our words a little better.

The definition of mishandle is "to deal with something without the necessary care or skill." That sounds like a flub.

Mishandling classified documents is a federal crime and a violation of national security.

Using the term mishandling is accurate and does not bode well for him. Honestly, I think this is going to be what finishes Trump. It won't be election tampering. It won't be inciting an insurrection. It's this.

Four weeks a month and how long before that were they told the doc's were missing ? Good question but it w
will never be answered.

So, 28 months and counting

Jan 2022 - May 2022 the National Archives was negotiating with TFG to recover the documents 'inadvertently' in his position. At most there was a two months delay.

his own purposes regardless of the effects on the USA.

My view is 76 months and counting. Maybe even before he became #45.
