Photos Reveal Documents Trump Flushed Down Toilet at the White House

Photos of documents that former President Donald Trump flushed down a toilet at the White House have been released.

New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman shared the photos with Axios and posted them to Twitter.

“Trump denied flushing documents as president, as I learned during reporting last year for CONFIDENCE MAN. A Trump White House source recently provided PHOTOS of paper with Trump’s handwriting in two different toilets,” Haberman tweeted.

She added, “On the left is a White House toilet, the word ‘qualified’ and a capital I visible. On the left, a toilet from a Trump trip overseas.

”In another tweet, Haberman noted that “under the presidential records act, documents generated by and sent to presidents are to be preserved by the office.”

She continued, “Trump’s habit of ripping paper that had to be taped back up was known; his habit of discarding them was not.”

Trump spokesperson Taylor Budowich issued a statement to Axios responding to the report.

 “You have to be pretty desperate to sell books if pictures of paper in a toilet bowl is part of your promotional plan,” Budowich said.

The statement continued, “We know … there’s enough people willing to fabricate stories like this in order to impress the media class — a media class who is willing to run with anything, as long as it anti-Trump.”

Earlier this year, Axios reported on excerpts from Haberman’s book detailing the incidents where papers were found clogging a toilet in the White House.

"New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman"

I wonder which Trump-hater Haberman had to sleep with, or give gifts to, in order to get that photo. She wouldn't be the first reporterette to trade sex in exchange for a story, photo, or book.

Until they have an actual photo of him doing something wrong then I’ll consider.

Those weren’t turds from Trump. They were turds from Biden after he mistook the morning report for his breakfast.

Those democrats are getting so desperate. Why would anyone who could simply put documents into a brief case and take them with him spend hours flushing paper down a toilet?

A man who was one of the biggest landlords and hoteliers in New York for many years would not be able to bring himself to throw copier paper down a toilet. He has doubtless paid many an expensive plumber’s bill. Trump would not take a chance on despoiling any part of the White House or its lawn to get at a bad clog.
