Donald Trump kicked off his weekend in panic mode over Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigation into the former President's hoarding of classified documents. Trump repeatedly defied requests to return the papers, so eventually, the FBI raided his Florida resort, Mar-a-Lago. But Trump claims that was an illegal act (it was not illegal).

And Lumpy doesn't think it's fair that Attorney General Merrick Garland named Robert Hur, a Trump appointee, as special counsel to investigate whether President Biden improperly handled classified documents. And, of course, Trump called Jack Smith a "thug."

"Page 1: What Biden did was wrong, but he was given a reasonable and stable Special Counsel who is sane, inclined not to make waves, friendly with RINOS, and is not known as a flame-throwing lunatic or a Biden hater," he wrote. "What I did was RIGHT, Secured documents in a secured place, lock on the doors, guards and Secret Service all around, security cameras working. Mar-a-Lago is essentially an armed fort, and was built that way in the 1920's, with High Walls & structure to serve as the Southern W.H."

"Page 2: I was President of the U.S. and covered and protected by the Presidential Records Act, which is not criminal and allows and encourages you to talk to the NARA, which we were, very nicely, until the FBI, who it is now learned has been after me for years without pause or question, RAIDED Mar-a-Lago, a stupid and probably Illegal thing to do," he continued. "As President, I have the right to declassify documents, Biden did not. Special "Prosecutor" Jack Smith, however, is a Trump Hating political Thug."

"Page 3: The Boxes Hoax Case against me should be dropped immediately," he added. "I have done nothing wrong!"

You can't make this stuff up. I think Trump would only be happy if a writer from Breitbart or Don Jr. were named as Special Counsel to investigate Biden's handling of the documents he immediately turned in upon discovering that they were on his property.
