The politicians who defend the loathsome man who tried to overthrow our republic during 2020 and 2021 and who lives in absurd ostentation in the gaudy "club" pictured below are in for some distasteful meals, in my opinion.
FBI Director Christopher Wray (appointed by Trump) or Merritt Garland (famously cautious) and a federal judge (uniformly careful), I'll betcha, approved a raid on the monstrosity below. And I'll betcha they had excellent convincing and timely information that evidence of a crime exists there. As the Lincoln Project folks have written, there is no judge in this country who would OK such a raid unless there is extremely strong evidence to support that decision.
Donald Trump, who has frequently behaved more like a Mafia don than a businessman OR a president, cannot be expected to voluntarily and openly cooperate with authorities when he feels threatened. He often demonstrates reckless disregard for precedence, the truth, morality, or law. And he is documented to have previously destroyed documents. No wonder it took a raid rather than a simple request or even a subpoena.
