Because obviously the thing to do if you have a server (and the servers were all actually virtual machines, so there was never a physical box), is not to destroy it, or wipe the disk, or hide it somewhere.
Oh no, it makes way more sense to physically ship the thing halfway around the world. Right?
After all, it’s not like there’s any way of making a copy of information on a computer or anything.
Oh man, I just had a great brainwave. Some say the Qanon stuff started as a prank being played on conspiracy theorists and they just ran with it. I don’t know, but it sorta seems plausible. So why not concoct the next goose chase for them to waste their time on, and hopefully it’ll reach Trump’s ears like this Crowdstrike nonsense did. How about instead of the DNC’s server full of evidence, it can be like the NOC list. A master directory of all the Deep State operatives and Soros Shills. Or whatever. The best part is, we actually name it “The Macguffin.” Can you just imagine 45 going on the air or calling all these foreign leaders asking for help in tracking down The Macguffin. Priceless.
In terms more familiar to Zelenskyy: The server is inside an egg, in a duck, in a hare, that nests in a hollow log, that floats in pond, found in a forest on the island of Bouyan.
