 Florida man Charlie Cooke is with us again, and he's got thought on football and his governor. James comes out as pro-"the" and anti-peasantry; Peter still likes what we used to call chivalry.

Now, five months later, we find out the real crime is that Trump forgot to store his documents under the little known and under-appreciated Corvette exemption clause of the Espionage Act.
