Sleepy Don is definitely not behaving like an innocent person.

One of the White House’s more unusual boasts is that Donald Trump is “the most transparent president in history.” It’d be easier to take the claim seriously if the public had gained access to Trump’s tax returns, the Jeffrey Epstein files, the rationale behind the president’s recent MRI and the video of border czar Tom Homan allegedly accepting a bag full of cash from undercover FBI agents (to name just a few things). But to date, these have all remained under wraps. This list is still growing: This week, Trump argued that former special counsel Jack Smith’s final report in the classified documents case should never be made public. A Politico report noted that previous special counsels have written reports that were provided to Congress and made public, “even when they have included damaging findings about the incumbent administration.” But in the classified documents case, which led to 37 felony counts related to Trump’s alleged mishandling and withholding of sensitive records, there’s been no such disclosure. To be sure, Smith and his team submitted their findings earlier this year, but the president and his lawyers want to keep it hidden indefinitely. This effort might very well work out for Trump, since his legal team made its appeal to U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon, the Trump-appointed jurist who has earned an unfortunate reputation as a relentlessly biased conservative. In October, House Republicans announced plans to bring Smith to Capitol Hill to answer lawmakers’ questions. The former special counsel replied that he’d welcome that opportunity, but only if the public were allowed to watch the proceedings. If the prosecutor’s findings are kept hidden by a federal court, however, there may be very little to talk about at a congressional hearing. Don't forget Trump fought so hard to hide the Epstein files. You know who doesn't try to hide things and rig elections to further bury things? Innocent people.
