Jonathan Turley: Why was Joe Biden surprised?

Jonathan Turley: "It's a problem because it can be a crime.Now, it is true that the unlawful possession or removal of classified information has tended not to result in major prosecutions,but they have resulted in criminal charges.More importantly importantly, we've seen how there was this rush for not just prosecution, for me repossession as the Mara Lago scandal began, but also people who claim that the President, even if former President, even if he pleaded to a misdemeanor, should be barred from office.

So all of those arguments are obviously applicable here.There are differences.There hasn't been an allegation that there were false statements made or obstruction.We don't know a lot of the facts.We don't know if this is the full extent of these documents.The President's answers also are rather baffling.Why was he surprised?In order for documents to be removed, when you leave office, someone has to request it.Usually the vice president or president.It was in his office, his working office.We also know that he was working on a book that talked about Ukraine, Iran, some of the countries that were mentioned as the subject of these documents."
