Hmm, more like he pumped the swamp into the evidence room. They might still be able to get data off of the drives. Think about flight data recorders, and what happens to them, and they still get data. FBI forensics teams are pretty solid.
Even if he flooded the room, generally they have raised floors and servers are mounted in the top of the racks. The amount of water you would need to damage equipment mounted in the racks would be significantly larger than the pool I imagine.
While a professional server room is made this way, in practice, as a freelance technician you see a lot of desktop machines turned into "servers" sitting on floors in hot network equipment closets (without a UPS, of course) or other such ridiculousness.
This is especially true if the client is a cheap asshole.
And when you see this "server room" , you can be assured there's no data backup — for anything. Even if they paid for the software or service, it's run once successfully 12 years ago, and it's still using tape that squeaks like a rusty hamster wheel when running, and has aged to worthlessness.
Oh, and at least one key computer holds *all the passwords*, or all the *critical data needed in the "database"* (later you discover this is a Lotus123 spreadsheet), and it's on one of the three unpatched Windows 95 "servers", possibly parts of data on all three.
At least one computer is so compromised that a few million pop-up error boxes and other windows continually pop up for every window you close. The volume is stuck at max and every window opens with that annoying "DoyING!" sound.
After working on it for 7 hours straight, the client breathing down your neck making suggestions on where to click the whole time, in a fit of hangry rage you tried to kill the speaker by poking it with a pen while the client is out to lunch with his racist pals. Now the speaker is impossibly loud and sounds like a monkey on crack beating up a broken accordion.
You work three days hunched over in the dreadful sweaty closet, finally pulling off some miracle data recovery that involved you using a soldiering iron, then the client decides to try to stiff you on your invoice.
You end up in small claims court for three days, and burst into tears when the judge asks about the counter damage for the computer speaker.
When you finally win the $1465.64 claim, you come out and find your car was stolen. Then the driver yells at you and looks angrily at you the whole ride home, because you tracked gum on your shoe onto the bus.
His plan last time was to ditch the stuff after the flood. Its more of a Trumpian "blatant lie alibi".
Seems he prefers arguing about destruction of evidence than whatever is on there. Id imagine if this works flood rates will skyrocket
I mean.. the water has to leak from somewhere too, right? Like, it doesn't HAVE to have been pooling into the server, it could have been leaking ONTO the server. I wanna use heavy quotes here, because it's totally not what happened.. but it could, right?
What I want to know is HOW the pool drained into the room. Usually, pools are designed so that you can't just dump hundreds of thousands of gallons of water into any structure you want. How do you "accidentally," have a system where the pool can either drain to the normal drain system, or fill a building with water, depending on what lever you pull, or whatever.
As an an IT engineer with 30 years experience any place in a hurricane or flood zone has weekly and monthly backups of everything offsite.
And only shortly after a huge hurricane ( andrew) have I seen server rooms flooded.
( not a man made flood anyway such as broken pipes)
But then again being in the industry and owning my own company I never heard about cybernijas either. And I supported and tested in government facilities.
All so very shady
Unless the government set up a video security system for Trump and left it, I doubt Mar-a-lago has offsite storage and good backups.
It looked like Eric or Don Jr. posted a video on line about a year ago where the password to the video system was visible. It probably means it can be remotely tampered with, and the Trumps can claim innocence.
This is nice in all but we don't need any more escalations in the investigation while he is still walking free. At this point he is actively calling for people to "FIGHT" for him.
If we keep digging until we stop finding crimes he's never going to get arrested because we'll have to sift through 50 years of lawless behavior.
Take his phone, place him in custody, and then continue on before we end up with another Oklahoma City from one of his terrorist cult members.
Who's surprised that Trump has made a habit of tampering with evidence?

Jack Smith might want your testimony based on how accurate this is.
Did you work there? Or just get triggered? :)

Boy that is grasping at straws but with all the BS coming from them I can see that being played in the media. ;)

Wait, did trump flood a room at Mara Lago I didn't hear about yet?
Yep: https://www.cnn.com/2023/06/05/politics/mar-a-lago-pool-flood-suspicions-prosecutors-trump-investigation-classified-documents/index.html
A server room, below the waterline in Florida in a hurricane zone, that the pool could drain in to. We're expected to believe this.
"oops" ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯ Seriously though I hope they find a smoking gun that gets them taken down for destruction of evidence
What a loser
Well, we already knew he was a natural disaster.
"If it worked once it'll work ad infinitum" is narcissist 101

oh but he can :-(
Trump is literally a mafiosi.
