Grabbed
Chris Downes
On 8 August FBI agents raided Donald Trump’s luxury estate Mar-a-Lago and removed 33 boxes of files. The former president had been storing official documents, which he claimed were ‘all unclassified’, from his time in the White House. Chris Downes compares the removal of documents from Mar-a-Lago to Trump’s admitted habit of ‘grabbing’ or kissing women without waiting for their consent.
