I dunno, but I don't think it got in the official report like it did for Biden.
And the argument isn't "Biden took the documents home because of Alzheimers". The argument is "Biden took the documents home when in control of his faculties, but his Alzheimers was too far gone for him to be prosecuted."
I'm asking you about Trump. Is he mentally unfit to be president now or was the prosecution actually politically valid?
And I notice you still haven't addressed the differences between the two cases. I've found most people of a certain political persuasion never do because it's too inconvenient for their narrative.
In one case, a guy was asked to return documents the authorities knew he had, he didn't and then had to be served a search warrant to retrieve them.
In the other, a guy found documents himself, told on himself and consented to a voluntary search to look for more.
Mens rea is an important variable to the chances of conviction. Juries can easily be convinced that honest mistakes happen; especially when the person who made the mistake turns themselves in.
