The Spin

Anti-Trump narrative

We may finally be witnessing Donald Trump being held accountable for his actions. While Trump's continual excuses sound like raving hysterics, the former president will soon realize that the rule of law also applies to him. It's extremely clear that Trump took classified documents and refused to return them — and opportunities for escape are becoming evermore scarce.

Pro-Trump narrative

The continued targeting of Trump over this is ridiculous, especially because there’s another special counsel currently investigating Biden’s possession of classified documents from when he was vice president. In fact, every president since Reagan has been found to possess classified documents, yet none of these other former officials are being attacked and investigated like Trump.
