I Understand Why Cohn Stole Those Papers From Trump's Desk - But.....

isn't that scary in and of itself that a WH staffer can do such a thing. In the wrong hands and for the wrong reason - this could be a disaster for a good president (not Trump).

I wonder how Trump will process this stealing of papers off his desk? Do you think that Trump can have Cohn arrested for doing this?

No doubt he simply moved them to another place within the White House. Out of Donnie's sight but still clearly on government property.

Donnie could, of course, fire him. Or rather, have someone else fire him as he can't seem to even do this by himself....

The mere fact that Cohn could change policy simply by hiding a document shows that Trump doesn't have even have the competence of an average intern.
