Wasn’t it weird that Trump was publicly obsessed with toilets, showers, and water pressure? This week we learned where part of that obsession might actually come from. According to details from a new book by The New York Times’ Maggie Haberman (which she learned about during the Trump administration but decided to save for her book), Trump had the habit of trying to flush many of his documents.
According to the Presidential Records Act, all presidential communications need to be saved and documented, but this is a policy that is enforced by no one and never has been. Still, some level of rigor towards sensitive document disposal is a pretty standard practice at many offices.
In the Trump White House, an engineer needed to be called multiple times because the pipes were so full of documents Trump wanted to be rid of. In hindsight, this makes a lot more sense why Trump had the low flow Obama toilets replaced with ones more suited to Trump’s liking when they first moved in. Document flushing and racism!
