“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg says she is done hearing about President Joe Biden’s handling of classified documents in comparison to his predecessor.

During a segment of the show on Wednesday, Goldberg blasted former President Donald Trump for his handling of classified documents and alleged effort to obstruct the government’s attempt to retrieve them.

“I don’t want to hear people talking about, ‘Well, Biden did it.’ Biden was not the president, y’all. He was the vice president, which means that… the president had to have to declassify it, that was Obama at the time,” she said.

She added, “OK? Let’s just be clear about what’s happening.”

To a certain extent, she has a point. As president, with access to some of the nation’s most sensitive information, Trump had a duty to protect classified information. And the indictment alleges he acted incredibly recklessly and kept highly secretive information in insecure spaces.

He then allegedly obstructed the government’s effort to retrieve those files.

Perhaps Trump will produce some piece of paper that shows he actually declassified the documents before he left office and everything was actually legal. Although if such a document existed, he presumably would have revealed it already instead of claiming documents may have been planted.

And there is still the issue of it probably being unwise for him to allegedly take information on nuclear programs and attack plans to Mar-a-Lago even if he did declassify it.

However, Goldberg’s comments are a bizarre dismissal of Biden’s handling of classified documents.

The documents in Biden’s possession came from his time as vice president and a senator when he did not have the power to declassify the documents — as Goldberg noted.

And the fact he had documents from his time as a senator would suggest he had somewhat of a habit of improperly taking documents he had no excuse for taking and storing them — some in his garage — for years.

That does not quite seem like the defense or excuse Goldberg thinks it is since he is currently responsible for protecting highly sensitive information again.
