What if Rudy's "Insurance" files (re: Biden...)

...are a threat to Trump because they show that nobody named Biden did anything wrong? Trump wouldn't want that info to come to light, now, would he?

Also, the so-called "RICO File" could easily implicate Trump.

Rudy has spent a bunch of time around Trump.

Who could spend a lot of time with Trump and not witness a crime?

Rudy is not a great lawyer but he is a lawyer. He'd know a crime if he saw one as a past prosecutor - particularly if it could be used as blackmail to save his butt.

I think Rudy's problem is that Trump can take Rudy down too - even if Trump goes down. And that Putin could weigh in if he was really needed.

He would have to have had enough sense to get something compromising on Trump just in case this happens. He may have a brief recording of Trump saying something very incriminating.

What sort of a file shows that someone didn't do anything wrong?

Like.... explain what that would even mean.

It's a list of all of the crimes in the world along with evidence that the person in question never committed them?

Let's take a simple example. You, for instance. If I said, "Send me a file which shows you haven't done anything wrong" what would be in that file?

Negative results of Biden/Burisma investigation requested by Trump campaign. Something like that.

starts telling the doctors at the asylum that she's noticed something weird about that dude in the basement guy who always wears a Napoleon hat and insists on being called "Emperor Jesus"

The doctors are polite and try not to say anything that might start another one of her manic babbling fits
