FBI Raid Went Through Melania Trump’s Wardrobe: MAGA Twitter is Incensed

We heard that the FBI was looking for documents. Apparently, the FBI wanted to be really sure that it had everything, and-or it was looking for something beyond documents. Because according to Fox News, the FBI went through Melania Trump’s wardrobe.

That isn’t all that odd. But it is also telling.

It is 100% normal when searching a residence for a specific item to go through every square inch of the home, though usually, the item is a computer or drugs, something that can easily be hidden in a frozen pizza box in the refrigerator, so the police or FBI have to be very thorough. For the FBI to go through Melania’s wardrobe, the warrant would have to be general enough to allow a search of the entire residence. The information sought could be kept in a thumb drive or something rather small, or be so important, so critical, that the FBI would think of even the most unlikely of places to become… likely. Or, it didn’t happen and the information released came from a source inside Mar-a-Lago attempting to gain sympathy.

All of the above are possible. It is also possible that the FBI didn’t retrieve all it was looking for. It is conceivable that Trump hid the documents so well that the FBI will eventually release the precise location in which they were found, and it will be very clear that whatever was hidden so carefully that Trump knew to hide them because he knew he wasn’t supposed to have them and worried that there might be a search for the items and put the documents in a location that he believed they would be impossible to find.

The problem is that many people have the same thought when it comes to hiding items and the police know those locations. Regardless, the MAGAs are going insane while the Left giggles in delight. Trump is finally being treated like the criminal that he is. 

The other possibility is that the FBI agents were looking for something beyond the classified files. You have to admit, a pocket in a Melania rain jacket, perhaps the “I Don’t Care, Do U?” one, would be appropriate.

When the FBI serves a search warrant, this is how the process works. There is nothing unusual about this. It is just that it sounds so intimate, and it hits people a little harder because Melania and Trump don’t seem that close, so it’s jolting to hear that the wardrobe was searched.

MAGAs are going nuts:
