The Twice-Impeached Guy who lost the last election by a landslide doesn't believe in obeying the laws of this land.
Some of the Trump White House documents that were handed over to the House Select Committee on Jan. 6 by the National Archives and Records Administration were reportedly torn up and taped back together.
Three sources familiar with the records told The Washington Post about the state of the administration documents, which the National Archives confirmed to the newspaper.
In a statement to The Post, the National Archives said that documents turned over from the Trump White House “included paper records that had been torn up by former President Trump."
“White House records management officials during the Trump Administration recovered and taped together some of the torn-up records," said the agency. "These were turned over to the National Archives at the end of the Trump Administration, along with a number of torn-up records that had not been reconstructed by the White House.
*********************
The Presidential Records Act requires that all records created by presidents be turned over to the National Archives at the end of their administrations.
Notes made by the president are not his to destroy. They belong to the Federal government. Destroying those notes is against Federal law, for which Trump could and should be prosecuted.
