Just like Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden is extremely careless but not a criminal or so we are told. Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report makes it clear that Joe “willfully retained and disclosed” highly classified materials. Because he’s president, Joe can’t be charged with anything. Even if he wasn’t president, he still wouldn’t be charged. That’s because Joe is so old and confused that a conviction would never happen.
Biden won’t be charged
Nobody is really surprised that Joe Biden isn’t going to be charged with a single thing, after improperly handling classified documents.
Even so, the victory doesn’t taste as sweet to Democrats as it should, because all the things Joe was allowed to get away with mean Donald Trump is allowed to do them, too.
It wasn’t an accident, Hur determined. Joe Biden “willfully” retained and disclosed highly classified materials. He hung on to “documents about military and foreign policy in Afghanistan and other sensitive national security matters.” He’s not being charged, though. Neither is anyone else.
So Joe Biden is old & cognitively impaired (8 yrs ago) according to special prosecutor Hur, that’s why he won’t be charged for leaving classified documents all over the place.
However, he’s still 100% ok to lead the free world & hold the nuclear football!

When Robert Hur’s report came out, on February 8, everyone started calling it “a harshly critical assessment of Biden’s handling of sensitive government materials.”
As Washington Post notes, “the findings will likely blunt his ability to forcefully condemn Donald Trump, Biden’s likely opponent in November’s presidential election, over a criminal indictment charging the former president with illegally hoarding classified records at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.”
Since there’s nothing wrong with a little document mismanagement among former presidents, it’s really no big deal. Biden is going to face Trump in November, whether he likes it or not.
retained by mistake
Even though a trail of classified documents followed Joe to Penn Biden Center, his Delaware home and the University of Delaware, most were retained by “mistake.” The ones which weren’t a mistake had to deal mostly with Afghanistan. Then, there were Joe’s personal notebooks.
He kept them with him everywhere he went and considers them his personal property no matter what the law has to say. Hur’s allowing him that privilege.
When Joe heard the news he was thrilled. He set down his bowl of ice cream to issue a statement. Biden relates that he’s “pleased” the special counsel had “reached the conclusion I believed all along they would reach — that there would be no charges brought in this case and the matter is now closed.”
The ‘Special Council’ has ruled Joe Biden cannot be charged in the ‘Classified Documents Case’ because he's not mentally fit to be tried?

It’s pretty easy to have confidence in no charges when you’re immune from it as president. What he didn’t say is that he’s glad the Special Prosecutor found so many helpful loopholes for Donald Trump to use responding to those same charges.
The main reason Hur leveraged for his failure to prosecute Biden is Joe’s “limited memory.” Joe told all our secrets to his ghostwriter and showed him the paperwork to back it up.
“Given Mr. Biden’s limited precision and recall during his interviews with his ghostwriter and with our office, jurors may hesitate to place too much evidentiary weight on a single eight-word utterance to his ghostwriter about finding classified documents in Virginia, in the absence of other, more direct evidence.” Wait, there’s more. “We have also considered that, at trial, Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” Who’s entrusted with the nuclear launch codes.
