- There IS a key difference between the way Trump handled classified information & Pence & Biden.
All three improperly had info. But once that was discovered, reports suggest that Biden & Pence turned it over to the government while the indictment suggests that Trump did not.
He’s being charged for the stuff he held onto after the government asked for it back…not the initial taking of the documents. Legal experts suggest if he simply would have complied, there wouldn’t be any charges.
The question remains: why was it so important to hold onto them?
