Trump resisted requests to return stash of documents at Mar-a-Lago, saying 'it's not theirs, it's mine,' NYT reports

Trump pushed back on requests to return documents, calling them "mine", several sources told NYT.
A report said Trump's lawyers tried in vain to have them returned. Many were later seized by the FBI.
Under US law, all White House records belong to the government, not the person who was president.

Former President Donald Trump railed against attempts by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) to retrieve a trove of documents, saying "it's not theirs, it's mine," according to The New York Times.

That is the response that several advisors told the paper that Trump gave to White House counsel Pat Cipollone and his deputy Patrick Philbin.

Trump is correct Ron, it's his. The worker is worthy of his wages.

Since you believe Trump is right, do you think that High Top Secret Documents should have been at Mar largo?

A good example of what belongs to Trump are the letters from Kim Jong-un. Trump was the man that had the courage to shake the man's hand and have a dialog. Not Obama, not Biden. If Trump were President still, America would still be safe from Kim Jong-un. But we're not Ron, and you think Trump doesn't deserve to keep the correspondence for his trouble? There's a court decision that sets the precedent that he DOES.

Top secret documents Steve is what I�m talking about. Do you believe that top secret documents belong at trumps Mar-a-Lago Ranch?

Well Ron, are those "top secret documents" about Crossfire Hurricane?

Let�s try again. Though he hasn't made an official announcement, it's a pretty sure bet that Donald Trump will be making a third bid for the presidency in 2024. Apart from a few bumps in the road � like dealing with those unexpected guests at Mar-a-Lago � his post-White House life has been spent dropping hints about running again. Trump has also been busy campaigning for state and federal government candidates who would be strong allies if he were back in office.

Do you believe these words are true?

Ron, the documents belong to Trump.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Saturday, August 20th 2022 at 8:59AM

What are you talking about? The topic is about Trump running for The Office of The President of The United States of America and NOT what belongs to Trump. WOW!!!

That's a great subject Ron. Start a blog about it why don't you.
