Letter: Not about Trump or Biden, but security

Posted January 21, 2023 12:00 am

Please help me make sense of the political double-talk about classified documents. According to Democrats, Trump did wrong because he deliberately put classified documents in his home and resisted efforts to retrieve them. Biden did nothing wrong because he was forgetful, confused, had no idea where he put the documents (in multiple inappropriate places) and said "Oops! Take them back!" Which is worse?

This is not tantamount to Biden forgetting where he parked the presidential limousine at a shopping mall. The President is not allowed to drive a car or go anywhere by himself while in office. What security is there for highly sensitive classified documents?

This is not the fault of Trump or Biden. It is a problem of a lack of security. They both did what they were allowed to do.

Biden vs. Trump in 2024? God help us! Let us pray for a candidate to arise who is worth voting for!
