Trump has a long history of stoking violence against prosecutors, police officers, Democrats, the FBI, the Department of Justice – anyone who fails to worship him in the way he believes he should be worshiped.

While President, Donald Trump believed the FBI, the Attorney General and the Department of Justice existed not to serve the American people but to serve him. He apparently still believes that – and he's directing his rage at federal workers who are merely upholding the law. "How dare they oppose me! Off with their heads!"

I never understood why Trump had so many advisers when he was President. He never listened to them. He has always said and done whatever he wants. He continues to say and do whatever he wants – and he is growing increasingly deranged, demented and delusional.

Trump asked for a "special master" to oversee the Justice Department's review of the classified documents removed from Mar-a-Lago, documents which shouldn't have even been at Mar-a-Lago. On September 1, Florida district court judge Aileen Mercedes Cannon will hold a hearing to determine if Trump's request will be granted. By the way, Cannon was nominated by Trump and confirmed by the Senate in 2020.
Justice Department says Trump's request for special master would impede criminal probe
USA TODAY, Aug 30 2022
Justice Department officials told a federal judge late today that the appointment of a special master to oversee a review of documents seized from former President Donald Trump’s Florida estate earlier this month was "unnecessary" and would impede the government's investigation into Trump's handling of classified documents, along with an ongoing national security risk assessment.
In a lengthy rejoinder to Trump’s request for an independent screener, prosecutors also refuted claims that the former President had cooperated with authorities in the months leading to the unprecedented August 8 search. Justice officials asserted that Trump's lawyers prohibited investigators in June from viewing the contents of boxes inside a storage room "to confirm that no documents with classification markings remained." Two months later, FBI agents descended on the property where they discovered 11 sets of classified documents among the more than 20 boxes removed from the property.

The Department of Justice filed a 36-page brief detailing the classified documents taken from Mar-a-Lago on August 8. It included a photograph – taken at Mar-a-Lago – showing many of the documents. During a June 3 visit to Mar-a-Lago by the FBI and DOJ officials, Trump's attorneys said all the classified documents had been returned and there are "no other records stored in any private office space or other location at the premises." Of course they were lying.

Trump had more than 700 pages of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago. He insisted they were his. They weren't. He insisted he "declassified" them. He didn't. He insists he's protected by "executive privilege." He isn't. He is no longer an "executive." He's an ex-President..
