Serious question- isn't destroying public records a crime?

1. Just add it to an already long list.

[Wounded Bear]

2. Indeed it is...

[lagomorph777]

3. Yup

[Mr. Ected]

4. Except for breathing, eating and his daily personal habits

Everything this man does is either a crime or done with criminal intent.

He's like a cartoon villain.

5. It's worse

there is a specific law about Presidential Records passed after Nixon that TFG violated repeatedly.

But we don't want to play politics by upholding the law, do we?

6. They're not charging him with sedition, there're not going to bother him over something so small.

The guy is going to walk, just like Mueller didn't want to tip over the apple cart, DOJ doesn't have the gumption to go after him.

10. Unfortunately...

you're 100% correct!

[spanone]

7. So many crimes...

really, sooo many.

8. That's my understanding, what we've all been reminded of repeatedly, but apparently.....

he's the exception to our laws. he can violate women, children, and all of our laws with impunity.

Where's my evidence for such claims you ask?

The Psychopath is crime'ng every hour of the day, often out in the open.

9. Tearing it in half isn't destroying it

They put it back together and the committee has it. So it wasn't destroyed.
If they were shredded, however...

11. Some were supposedly torn into very small pieces.

[AZSkiffyGeek]

13. If the committee has it, it wasn't destroyed

It's bending the rules pretty far, but Trump seems to know just how far he can go without breaking the law, and skirts that line.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

14. Yes, this is a crime

There are so many crimes that TFG can be charged with that it is not funny
