Biden, Trump and two very different classified document scandals, explained

At first glance, both presidents appear to have similarly bungled the handling of documents - but here's how the two cases differ

The discovery of classified documents in offices used by Joe Biden's thinktank and in a locked storage unit in a garage near where the president keeps his Corvette may not be a criminal matter, but it does appear to have taken a political toll.

With a new Reuters/Ipsos poll on Thursday finding that Biden's approval rating, which had risen at the end of 2022, was back down to just 40% - near the lowest level of his presidency - many Democrats are smacking their foreheads, fearing Biden has done exactly what his expected 2024 opponent, Donald Trump, was under investigation for doing.
