The President is apparently fit for office, even though:
We have also considered that, at trial, 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.
Even goes so far as to throw Trump under the bus, to defend Biden because apparently it doesn't matter about holding the documents in an insecure space for decades, but giving them up when asked.......... :
Principles of Federal Prosecution. \Ve have also evaluated ·'all relevant
considerations" in aggravation and mitigation, as outlined in the Justice Manual, and
determined that on balance, these factors do not support prosecution of Mr. Biden.:1
Historically, after leaving office, many former presidents and vice presidents
have knowingly taken home sensitive materials related to national security from
their administrations without being charged with crimes. This historical record is
important context for judging whether and why to charge a former vice presidentand former president, as Mr. Eiden would be when susceptible to prosecution-for
similar actions taken by several of his predecessors.
With one exception, there is no record of the Department ofJustice prosecuting
a former president or vice president for mishandling classified documents from his
own administration. The exception is former President Trump. It is not our role to
assess the criminal charges pending against Mr. Trump, but several material
distinctions between Mr. Trump's case and Mr. Biden's are clear. Unlike the evidence
involving Mr. Biden, the allegations set forth in the indictment of Mr. Trump, if
proven, would present serious aggravating facts.
Most notably, after being given multiple chances to return classified
documents and avoid prosecution, Mr. Trump allegedly did the opposite. According
to the indictment, he not only refused to return the documents for many months, but
he also obstructed justice by enlisting others to destroy evidence and then to lie about
it. In contrast, Mr. Eiden turned in classified documents to the National Archives and
the Department of Justice, consented to the search of multiple locations including his
homes, sat for a voluntary interview. and in other ways cooperated with the
investigation.
