Judge's 'soup-to-nuts' ruling showed how guilty Trump is in docs case: ex-Trump attorney

A lawyer who worked for Donald Trump's White House says the 45th president is guilty as sin and it's all spelled out in a ruling from last year — before the case virtually went to sleep in U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon's court.

Ty Cobb appeared on CNN's "Out Front" on Wednesday to weigh in on the federal criminal case accusing Trump of hoarding the documents and obstructing the recovery of them by the feds.

On Wednesday, Special Prosecutor Jack Smith's team bludgeoned a motion to dismiss the case by Trump's defense team as a "garbage argument" brought by the former president's body man and co-defendant Walt Nauta (along with Mar-a-Lago property manager Carlos De Oliveira) alleging vindictive prosecution.

Trump along with Nauta and De Oliveira pleaded not guilty to the charges.

“Real people have to decide these issues,” Cannon exclaimed on Wednesday.

Yet as she considers the claim, Cannon has snailed along without addressing how the classified evidence at issue can be used at trial and refuses to calendar the case for trial.

The earlier Trump ruling also included a footnote suggesting Trump consciously violated the law when an unnamed witness scanned and saved confidential documents onto a super PAC laptop.

"She should read that opinion because it takes it from soup to nuts and makes it very clear how guilty the president is in this case, which has been laid out so clearly," Cobb said, and even assigning the ruling as reading material by Cannon so that she can see for herself.

"To be sure, the government has not provided direct evidence that the former president deliberately retained, or was even aware of, the particular classified-marked documents located by his counsel at Mar-a-Lago in December 2022," reads the document filed by U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell.

However, she scolded Trump's defense for being aloof to the presence of the stacks of banker boxes decorating his Mar-a-Lago palatial home in Palm Beach, Florida.

Howell wrote: "notably... no excuse is provided as to how the former president could miss the classified-marked documents found in his own bedroom at Mar-a-Lago."

"She makes it very clear that the evidence is really overwhelming," Cobb praised. "And to the commission of crimes and Trump's attempt to use his own lawyer as an instrumentality of the crimes by hiding documents from him and moving documents out of the storage facility so that when he searched it — he would not find the classified documents."

The post-search documents were initially discovered after Trump's former lawyer, Timothy Parlatore, arranged for a sweep of Trump's properties to make certain there were no other sensitive documents.

That move came on the heels of a 2022 Justice Department subpoena mandating Trump to return the critically sensitive records.
