Trump was never briefed on what among his papers could not be taken, and he didn't pack/move the papers himself. He had returned 15 boxes already. His lawyers had met with agents. He was not there/destruction not imminent. Even Nixon was not raided. pic.twitter.com/ujHMfHvK3K

I’m no Trump fan. I want him as far away from the White House as possible. But a fundamental part of his appeal has been that it’s him against a corrupt government establishment. This raid strengthens that case for millions of Americans who will see this as unjust persecution.

Raiding a former POTUS home by the FBI HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE!!!
The FBI executed a search warrant at the Mar-a-Lago estate of former President Donald Trump on Monday as part of an investigation into the alleged mishandling of White House records, including potentially classified material, according to two people familiar with the matter.
The Florida raid, which one of the people said took “hours,” resulted in the seizure of paper records, according to one person familiar with the development, who also noted that Trump attorney Christina Bobb was present during the search. It was a historic step by the Justice Department and FBI to investigate the residence of a former president, who is battling an increasingly complex thicket of legal threats. No former president — particularly one who is openly considering another bid for the Oval Office — has faced such a public law enforcement action, which immediately led to calls among his allies for recriminations and even the elimination of federal law enforcement agencies.
“They even broke into my safe,” Trump himself said in a lengthy statement decrying the FBI search and comparing it to Watergate. Trump, who was the first to confirm the FBI action, said in a statement that his resort was “under siege, raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents.”
“After working and cooperating with the relevant Government agencies, this unannounced raid on my home was not necessary or appropriate,” Trump said
“This is some third-world bulls*** right here,” the popular conservative commentator said on Fox News. “Let me say it again: third-world bulls***. I mean every world of that. I don’t care that it’s cable news.”
FBI search was related to Trump’s handling of presidential records, including classified documents, after leaving office, sources told CNN.
