MSNBC's Kyle Griffin wants to know if Republicans slamming Merrick Garland will apologize if the Trump/nuke docs story is true

The Left has found a new Trump claim to push almost as hard as “Russia collusion,” and it’s come by way of this story published in the Washington Post:

FBI searched Trump’s home looking for nuclear documents and other items, according to people familiar with the investigation https://t.co/kbfLiO2veE

— The Washington Post (@washingtonpost) August 12, 2022

This is another one of those “sources say” stories, and you know how true those often turn out to be.

Classified documents relating to nuclear weapons were among the items FBI agents sought in a search of former president Donald Trump’s Florida residence on Monday, according to people familiar with the investigation.

Experts in classified information said the unusual search underscores deep concern among government officials about the types of information they thought could be located at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Club and potentially in danger of falling into the wrong hands.

So it took the DOJ/FBI over a year and a half to realize Trump took these super sensitive documents when he left office and was keeping them at his private residence at Mar-a-Lago? Also you’ll notice that the story says the FBI “sought” certain things but doesn’t say they were actually found.

In any case, MSNBC producer Kyle Griffin wants to know if Republicans will apologize if the story turns out to be true:

If, in fact, Trump had classified documents relating to nuclear weapons, will Republicans who cried foul recant? Apologize? Admit jumping to conclusions? Face consequences?

The question could also be asked another way: Will Democrats apologize if the story isn’t true? (We already know the answer to that.)

This you? Did you recant, apologize, or admit that you jumped to conclusions? https://t.co/Sr4SWpeHb9 pic.twitter.com/b9KoM061vR

Oh son, that's a yuge "IF."

Sort of like the Russian collusion hoax.

Feel me?

Have any Democrats or in the lib media apologized for pushing the Steele dossier and “Russia collusion” as fact? That is, of course, a totally rhetorical question.

By the way, Trump has called Merrick Garland’s bluff when it comes to the release of documents the FBI took from his home.
