Earlier this week, special prosecutor, Jack Smith, it was revealed, had subpoenaed the
Trump organization as part of his investigation into the ongoing documents scandal.
And that of course, is Donald Trump taken classified documents, yada, yada.
We know the rest of that.
This is a massive move, right?
Because on the surface, if we're looking into why did Donald Trump have these classified
documents down at Mar-a-Lago, and of course in a storeroom offsite, how does the Trump
organization play into this?
Right?
It's an organization based at a New York City.
Trump's got the documents down in South Florida.
You know, the Trump organization didn't take the documents.
So what on earth could Jack Smith be looking for at the Trump organization related to classified
documents?
It doesn't make any sense until it all starts to make complete perfect sense.
What Smith is likely looking for is any evidence that would suggest that Donald Trump traded
any classified intelligence in exchange for cash or business deals.
That's why he wants those records from the Trump organization.
Here's how that scenario likely could have played out if Donald Trump had these documents.
And we know that his little son-in-law, Jared Kushner, was still traveling around the globe,
you know, trying to work out these deals, getting money to come in, but that's Kushner's
company.
But there's no reason to think that Trump's own children couldn't have been doing that
same thing for him or Trump himself.
He travels the globe.
We know that he has their phone numbers.
It doesn't even have to be a travel thing.
You could've talked to him.
He could've said, listen, I got some info here.
You want it?
Yeah, we want it.
Well, I know you do, but you know, what I want is I wanna build a Trump tower over in
your country, but I can't get the permits for it.
I can't get all this clearance.
I need some, some incentives to do that.
So you scratch my back.
I scratch your back.
So that is a scenario under which Donald Trump could have traded classified information for
special privileges for his business.
Now, I'm not saying this happened again, all we know is that a subpoena was issued.
I'm laying out potential possibilities for what could have happened.
I'm not saying any of it did.
These are just things that could have taken place.
So please don't say that I'm accusing him of any of this.
I'm laying out what the special prosecutor could be thinking.
The real, uh, real question is why, how would, how would Smith know about this?
Well, I'm glad you brought that up because here's the thing.
As you recall, Jack Smith recently has been talking to a lot of employees at Mar-a-Lago.
You know, I mean, we're talking about not people that are personally Donald Trump's
aids and assistants.
No, no, no, no.
I'm talking about the housekeepers.
He's talking to this wait staff at the restaurant at
Mar-a-Lago.
He is talking to every single individual person there that may have information about what
Donald Trump did.
These are people who are basically the fly on the wall type people.
Donald Trump thinks he can say whatever to whoever while these people are standing around
because they're insignificant to him.
So if you have a waiter that may have overheard Donald Trump telling somebody, yeah, you know,
we just got this great deal.
All I had to do was fax them a couple of these documents, it was wonderful.
Then that server could have gone and told Jack Smith that, and that may be why Jack
Smith started to focus on these individual, you know, lower totem pole type people.
And here's what would happen if anybody did overhear those kinds of conversations.
Or if they saw Donald Trump at the club meeting with a foreign dignitary, you know, going
behind closed doors.
What Jack Smith would then be looking for in order to see if anything happened, is he
would look at the date which the individual said this meeting or conversation took place.
So let's say for example, Donald Trump meets with a, you know, uh, Saudi, uh, Emirate on
June 1st, and that's what the employee told Jack Smith.
Jack Smith would now look through the Trump Organization files to see if there was any
kind of massive movement, you know, in terms of investments coming into the company, investments
going out of the company to that particular country following that meeting.
So anytime after that date, that's what Smith is likely looking for.
To see if the Trump organization financially benefited from Donald Trump, you know, may
be promising documents.
And again, we don't even know that he did promise documents, and we don't even know
that these scenarios I'm laying out are the ones that happened.
Like I could just be totally off base.
And even if the things I'm saying did happen, getting the evidence that Donald Trump actually
did share the classified information, we may not ever be able to get that evidence if it
went to a foreign country.
And they're just like, Nope, we didn't get it.
So even if the things I said did happen, we may still not ever be able to actually prove
that they happened.
Jack Smith had his, has his work cut out for 'em.
A and again, no matter what it is about, I can promise you one thing subpoenaing the
Trump organization as part of the document scandal is a much, much bigger deal than
we all realize.
