    The data, for example, could help show whether Trump personally approved or sent a fateful tweet attacking his vice president, Mike Pence, during the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol.

      I’m more interested in if they find evidence of communication with his Russian handlers

        communication with his Russian handlers

        I think this would be a hilarious read. Imagine his handlers giving specific instructions on policy or public statements only for those same handlers to tune into the nightly news or parlor and seeing him go “off script” on some crazy self aggrandizing rant completely torpedoing the careful narrative Russia was trying to construct.

        How many times did his handlers have a meeting and say “ffs why can’t this asshole just stick to the script! God damn! Okay, lets see what we have to work with to fix this. Also, find out who the hell gave him a Sharpie!”
