Karl Rove, who served as a senior adviser to former President George W. Bush, said on Friday that former President Trump did not have the authority to take presidential documents with him to his Mar-a-Lago residence when he ended his term.
“Why he was holding on to these materials when he had no legal authority to do so under the Presidential Records Act is beyond me,” Rove, a Fox News contributor, said during an appearance on the network.
Rove’s appearance came shortly after a federal magistrate judge approved the release of a redacted affidavit used to convince him to approve a search warrant for Trump’s Florida residence.

Rove is not now and never was a MAGA American!
Then that must also apply to all living and former President, including the 39,000,000 documents 0Bama has in his possession, right?
Snake in the grass. This is Rove’s final play.
Maybe now Fox will stop having him on like he’s some strategy genius for our side.
‘Sore loser’ perfectly describes this fat bastrid & the entire Bush cabal.
Oh, Rove knows, he just ignores anything that gets in the way of pushing his deep state agenda.
Likely on Rove's advice.

This guy is a walking disaster! Him and Frank Luntz have got to be the biggest idiots anyone listen too.
Retards could come up with more coherent political optics than this “architect”!
Karl- the team player.
Go away doughboy. Rove was the original open borders RINO.
In principle, yes, but Trump is not known for his knowledge of federal laws, and even less for respect of legal procedures observed by politicians. People advising him were also not the best and the brightest. So anything is possible here.
“I forget her all the time because I never watch her.”
That’s so funny ‘cause I was thinking, “What’s that dumb blonde’s name on Fox who loves Bush so much?” I’d forgotten her name, too. Just recalled the “dumb blonde” part.
When she was on The Five (maybe she is; I don’t know), she would expound on some subject but use malapropisms, incorrect grammar, etc., and Gutfeld and Watters would crack up while I was.

Rove helped kill the America we knew. It became evident in the Obama Administration. It became glaring when Obama sought his second term. Rove and his ridiculous white board. Too many things to name. I began to loathe him and the “Compassionate Conservative” GW Bush.
I’m so disgusted with everything.
“So anything is possible here.”
The enemies of Trump decided to do something that has never happened in Presidential history. They deserve nothing but mocking ridicule, moving forward.
The raid on Maralago is unprecedented and should be looked at with extreme skepticism by everybody.
This is a continuation of the ‘Russia Russia canard’ that was given great importance by the GOP establishment. They went with the bullshit back in 2017 and now some of them are backing the current anti Trump bullshit.
The Republicans that back this harassment of Trump are getting smaller & smaller as a group.
In other words most of Free Republic isn’t “buying what they’re selling.”

G1.
Piglet is a snarky little man.
But a 2012 federal court ruling involving a dispute with Bill Clinton declared that presidents have the “sole discretion” to decide which of their presidential records are personal and that such decisions can’t even be challenged by a federal court. The only remedy is a civil procedure in the Presidential Records Act in which the National Archives and an Attorney General seek to force the recovery of disputed documents. A challenged civil procedure does not allow a court ordered raid.
