Our Commode in Chief may no longer be on the seat of power, but he occupies the headlines daily.
Axios reported this week that Donald Trump routinely flushed White House documents down the toilet, in violation of the Presidential Records Act, which requires their preservation.
Aides regularly found the papers clogging his personal toilet.
Trump, of course, pronounced the story "fake."
But I think the story holds water. Far too many White House aides saw this Super Bowl to doubt it.
If Trump were half as smart as Richard Nixon was, he'd have called the White House Plumbers to fix things.
The Washington Post called called Trump’s action a "wrenching testimony to his penchant for wanton destruction.”
I agree wholeheartedly with The Post, as I agree with Harvard historian Heather Cox Richardson's assessment of Trumps' document dump.
"The idea that he was flushing so many documents that he periodically clogged the toilet seems a commentary on his regard for the American people."
Trump promised a "Great America;" but he dealt us a royal flush.
