Trump Trouble Leaves ‘The Donald’ Cornered!

Donald Trump is facing so much Trump Trouble these days that it’s probably a safe bet to assume life inside TrumpWorld is an undesirable and chaotic mess.

Top News Today :
Over the summer, the House Select Committee investigating the January 6th insurrection crafted a master class of a case against Trump and several of his minions regarding their roles in the Capitol Hill riot. The FBI just raided Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida in search of classified documents stolen from The White House. A gang of Trump/MAGA sycophants made threats against the lives of US Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI agents as retribution for the Trump raid. On Friday, a judge unsealed the FBI search warrant, revealing that Donald Trump is suspected of espionage. Trump’s decision to plead the fifth during a NY State civil case is about to backfire on him ‘bigly.’ Oh, and the mole who sold out Trump and told the FBI exactly where to look for the stolen documents is an anonymous member of Trump’s exclusive inner circle.

Yes, the proverbial shit has hit the fan in TrumpWorld and Trump appears to be painted into a corner he likely can’t escape. So, buckle up, folks, and hold onto your hats as we dive into this boatload of the latest Trump Trouble.

FBI RAID

When Merrick Garland ordered the unprecedented FBI raid on Trump’s private home, he did so legally by convincing a federal judge that the raid was not only necessary but urgent. He even made sure to obtain the required search warrant. Since then, Republican lawmakers and MAGA minions have thrown a collective hissy fit over their beloved Donald Trump being subjected to such a raid.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene announced she will initiate articles of impeachment against Attorney General Garland. Republicans took to conservative television shows to berate the Justice Dept. for daring to search the home of ‘The Donald’ over a few trinket souvenirs Trump may have taken from The White House. Additionally, Garland and members of the FBI have received a historical number of death threats for staging the raid.

Republicans barked that Garland needed to explain his actions AND that he needed to unseal the search warrant and reveal precisely what he was after. Interestingly (and unexpectedly for Republicans), Garland did exactly that.

ESPIONAGE

In a surprise move, a judge unsealed the search warrant and revealed the depth of the Trump Trouble, including potential violations of the Espionage Act and obstruction of justice laws.

According to POLITICO, Trump possessed documents that were marked “TS/SCI,” which indicates one of the highest levels of government classification. Or, in other words, Trump didn’t merely take a few unimportant trinkets from The White House. He stole classified documents (which were improperly stored at Mar-a-Lago) that could jeopardize national security. This equates to a crime of espionage.

So, exactly how did Merrick Garland find out about the stolen documents AND their exact location at Mar-a-Lago? Read on…

A MOLE IN THE HOLE

According to The Wall Street Journal, an anonymous person (only listed in federal records as Person CI-1) who is said to be a member of Trump’s most trusted inner circle “told investigators there may be still more classified documents at the private club” and where to find them.

Yes, the Trump Trouble has since evolved into what must surely be sleepless nights for ‘The Donald’ now that he realizes a trusted friend or perhaps even a member of his own family dropped a dime on him to the feds.

“So much paranoia in a mole hunt, no one to trust, so much to do, so much to lose, so many walls closing in so fast,” said former deputy assistant FBI director Peter Strzok.

It “might be Melania,” Trump’s 3rd wife, Strzok said. Or, it might be son-in-law and former advisor Jared Kushner. Too bad for Trump, but he simply doesn’t know.

Whoever the mole is, this person knows all and has been singing like a canary to the feds. Since Trump is a stickler for loyalty and has absolutely no idea where the leak is coming from, he is certainly feeling the pressure mounting and the walls closing in on him. He is also very likely paranoid by not knowing who he can or can not trust from now on.

ALTERNATE FACTS

As expected, ‘The Donald’ and his minions have attempted (but failed miserably) to change the narrative of this latest Trump Trouble.  

Republicans dared Merrick Garland to unseal the search warrant as they painted a picture that the raid was “extreme” and “unnecessary” over a few unimportant items. Interestingly, these Republicans have since gone silent now that the warrant has been unsealed and Trump appears guilty of threatening national security by hoarding classified documents under a charge of espionage.

At one point during the past few days, Trump and his people hoped to argue that the found documents were actually planted by the FBI agents since Trump’s lawyers were prevented from witnessing the search in real-time. However, that argument went poof once Trump himself revealed that he watched the entire search on closed-circuit security cameras on the property — which would negate any accusations of planted evidence.

“We knew that Donald Trump would try to gaslight the entire country and try to psychologically destabilize the minute this raid happened. We knew he would immediately start lying and they would immediately try to tell an alternate narrative of why it’s happening and why it’s really happening,” said Lincoln Project co-founder Rick Wilson.

“But, look, they’re always like crabs in a bucket down there in Mar-a-Lago. They’re always fighting with each other. They’re always competing with each other and they’re always looking to protect themselves. So someone is protecting themselves in a pool right now,” Wilson added.

This latest Trump Trouble is not only a lot all at once, but is also incredibly damning and damaging. Could this be the real beginning of the end of Donald Trump?
