I don't have a good memory, so maybe you can help me.

Which former president brought props (and fake props at that) to an official press conference?
And which one brought in people to cheer and applaud?

All of them.

Every press conference is a full blown photo op, and there are TEAMS of people whose only job is optics.

If tRump really DID sign a number of documents as claimed - notwithstanding what Fake News says, - then it should come as no shock if some assistant optics coordinator ran and got a pile of papers and folders to add a visual to the narrative which the photo op/"press conference" was staged to sell. Whether tRump really signed such documents is known to neither of us at this time - I'm not accepting your source as authoritative, and i suggest that you are foolhardy if you do, given what you know or ought to know.

Seriously? Are we supposed to act like this is normal?

Absolutely normal - 100% in keeping with every precedent.

As I said before, if it was a democrat, we'd have a 102 year old *** granny who "din gitta vote!" on account of those racist voter ID laws. Same **** - a prop, to push a narrative.
