How Trump’s handling of secret documents led to the FBI’s Mar-a-Lago search.
Trump’s representatives said they believed the matter was closed, and that all documents had been rendered. After the search and the rendering of documents in June, one of Trump’s lawyers signed a document indicating Trump had no more"responsive" records, which cited four sources with knowledge of the document. NBC News has not independently seen or confirmed the document.
“President Trump has great care for the importance of presidential records and presidential record keeping, so much so that both himself and his representatives have spent nearly two years painstakingly working with appropriate entities to ensure any items improperly moved by the General Services Administration were appropriately returned,” Budowich said in a written statement.
When Trump first took office, his administration had a loose system for controlling the flow of paper to and from the presidentaccording to former White House officials who spoke on condition of anonymity, citing the federal investigation. He was getting documents that didn’t go through the national security process or any other.
“We had something approximating a process,” this person said, speaking on condition of anonymity because of the ongoing criminal investigation. “He’s a total pack rat, keeps all sorts of stuff.”
