Whether Kash is honest or dishonest isn’t the point. The point is that we don’t know if he was honest or dishonest. That’s what makes his statement useless. It can’t be used to determine if those documents are classified or not.You’re quite verbose. Seriously, you need to drive for brevity.
Kash saying it doesn’t make it so. On that we agree. But I don’t believe there is any fair basis to say that Kash is dishonest.
I don’t care why they may or may not choose to believe it. Their belief doesn’t constitute evidence.
And the government damn well knew what documents (which are all labeled and recorded) said. Your contrary claim is make believe.
Your argument about the immediacy issue is wordplay. The point remains that there was no rush and no perceived need for any rush. And you can’t point to any such alleged need.
And no, the government didn’t know what documents were retained by Trump. The record keeping for these documents was clearly substandard.
National security is the reason to get the documents back. As for a rush, they really didn’t rush given they started asking for these documents early in 2021 and didn’t raid his house until late 2022.
You claim that they just needed to wait longer for ongoing negotiations, which is clearly wrong given that Trump’s lawyers claimed that they had resolved the matter by turning all his documents over.
