Make this make sense?

News broke late last night and into this morning of the bombshell 36-page court filing that was released by the United States Department of Justice, pertaining to the August 8th, 2022, FBI search and seizure warrant raid that was executed by federal agents against Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago compound that he now calls home in his post-White House days. DOJ officials revealed in the brutal new filing that they uncovered a corrupt plot to purposely obstruct their investigation into the discovery of highly-classified government records that Donald Trump stole from the White House and blatantly mishandled when he moved said materials to his Palm Beach estate.

But it wasn’t just revelations regarding the depths of Donald’s corruption that were tucked into the new DOJ documents. Included in the DOJ court filing, that accuses Trump and his team of intentionally relocating and hiding materials that were subject to their search, were damning photos from the early August 2022 FBI search and seizure warrant raid against the former president’s Palm Beach country club, where he had stashed and hidden the documents and materials he was never supposed to possess. Among those bombshell pictures were photos that showed numerous documents — many of which were clearly marked as “Top Secret” — haphazardly strewn across the floor of the Palm Beach, Florida, mega-mansion.

At first glance, people were rightfully focused on the haphazard mess of clearly classified materials that were clearly seen in the new photo. The general topic is so hot right now that even Trump himself has responded to the picture, seemingly attempting to blame FBI agents for scattering the materials across the mansion’s floor.

However, if you take a closer look at the newly released photo, it’s one particular magazine cover that Trump seemed to intentionally hold onto that piqued our interest — a framed image of a TIME Magazine cover that’s about as unflattering of Donald Trump as it gets.

Business Insider reports on the photo:

The cover, which appeared to be placed in a gold frame, was from a March 4, 2019 edition of the publication. It showed 15 of Trump’s Democratic challengers at the time — including President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris — peering into the Oval Office at a nervous-looking Trump who is seated in his chair.”

The photo is unsurprisingly making its way around social media like wildfire:

TIME has personally confirmed that by the time Donald Trump’s presidency came to a humiliating and tumultuous close, he had been featured on the cover of their magazine a total of 35 times — almost none of which were flattering to the then-president, such as the cover that featured a cartoon rendering of Trump’s face melting and another that showed his putrid hair on fire.

So far it’s unclear as to why Trump held on to a framed copy of this particular TIME Magazine cover. But it certainly speaks to his neverending ego, doesn’t it?
