Abstract

In an unprecedented move last night, FBI agents raided Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, searching for classified documents that the former president may have illegally taken after leaving the White House. In this Q&A, Thomas Gift explains why the raid matters, what the response has been from Trump and his supporters, and the potential implications for the 2022 midterms.
