It’s been great fun watching the left spin the findings of Special Counsel Robert Hur. The NY Times led the way calling it “unequivocal legal exoneration.” That is totally false. Hur proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that Biden committed multiple felonies. He willfully and knowingly mishandled, retained and shared classified information. Any and all claims of Biden’s innocence hinge completely on his being senile. Hur did not say Biden was a “sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” He said“Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” And as I said, THAT is why he chose not to bring charges. It almost sounds like Hur knew Biden might be faking it. And hey, Biden roundly denied his memory was failing. This could all be cleared up with the release of the recordings of the interview.
And there’s the genius of Hur’s actions. It sets the stage for invocation of the 14th Amendment.
Equal Protection refers to the idea that a governmental body may not deny people equal protection of its governing laws. The governing body state must treat an individual in the same manner as others in similar conditions and circumstances.
Here’s former acting Attorney General Rod Rosenstein asserting that you can rob a bank and escape charges as long as you cooperate with the authorities.

That’s complete BS, of course. Cooperation is not exoneration. The case for cooperation comes at sentencing, not at arraignment. Biden committed the crimes. Period.
At next opportunity, Trump’s legal team should demand that all charges against Trump be dropped.
