Former President Trump had a very tumultuous time last week as his home at Mar-a-Lago was raided by the FBI.  There they seized 11 sets of classified documents, some that were labeled top secret.  Latest reports say that in his final days in office, he was so preoccupied with trying to overturn the election, that he failed to properly prepare to leave the White House leaving aides to just throw everything into boxes.
