So, if he (Trump) didn't do it himself, and he was unaware of what was taken then is he criminally responsible for wanting to hold on to the 35-40 or so documents , which at least one time and maybe later he had the legal right to keep and control. Is this worthy of a criminal complaint against him versus Biden who had ...no ...rights to any documents as a Senator or a Vice President?

Trump will almost certainly file a motion to dismiss on the basis of selective prosecution. What's interesting is this whole thing may have been the the DOJ's plan all along: don't charge Biden even though you know you should because you have him dead to rights - this gets them out of having to take aim at a sitting President - but do it in such a way that a judge almost HAS to throw out the OTHER case you have going against the guy you ALSO have a strong case against but might win anyway.

If true, a tip of the cap to the DOJ.
