To refresh his memory so he can tell people about it?
What is the punishment for disclosing the confidential material that he is reviewing? And what punishment would a “normal” person face? If the answers are anything like the punishment Trump faced for violating a court-mandated gag order, I suspect he will talk about these confidential documents, and punishment will consist of a harsh tone and finger wagging. And don’t be fooled, to the wealthy (or to those receiving large sums in political donations), a monetary fine measured in thousands of dollars is just that: a harsh tone and finger wag.
IDGAF if he’s the former president. IDGAF if it were Biden, Clinton, or the most liberal/Democratic person in existence. If they break the law, if they break court orders, punish them equally.
I get that this is required for disclosure of evidence rules in our justice system, but it still feels a little backwards. We’re trying you in court for violating classified documents handling rules, so we’re going to let you look at classified documents.
He’ll be living out his days in a secure facility before too long.
