Exclusive photos: Trump's telltale toilet

[demmiblue]

Remember our toilet scoop in Axios AM earlier this year? Maggie Haberman's forthcoming book about former President Trump will report that White House residence staff periodically found wads of paper clogging a toilet — and believed the former president, a notorious destroyer of Oval Office documents, was the flusher.

Why it matters: Destroying records that should be preserved is potentially illegal.

Trump denied it and called Haberman, whose New York Times coverage he follows compulsively, a "maggot."

Well, it turns out there are photos. And here they are, published for the first time.

1. Ewww

2. Maybe if we're lucky, he'll take the same kind of "escape route".

And do us all a favor.

5. Winner of the day!

[lastlib]

17. Flush 10 to 15 times....

Make that 10 to 15 times 10......

[Tanuki]

3. Gives new meaning to the term "document dump."

[Sanity Claws]

4. At least the water is clear

and not filled with no.1 or no.2

8. I think those are harvested, encased in clear resin,

and sold to his worshippers as paperweights. ($128.95 + S&H at the "Send Me More Money" website.

6. Ummmm, Maggie, one of the editors is fact checking your sources...

…did they understand you correctly to say TRUMPS TOILETS 🚽 ?

[James48]

7. Hahaha!

A low flushing “Al Gore” water-saving toilet is the key piece of evidence!

9. I call fake on those photos.

The handwriting is too legible, and a Trump toilet would be twice as wide as a normal one.

You wouldn't expect a hippopotamus to be able to defecate into an empty soup can without making a mess, would you?

[Marcuse]

11. It could be Putin's handwriting.

[FailureToCommunicate]

18. Yes. Doesn't quite pass the **sniff** test...

Sorta unlikely White House toilet seats are cheapo plastic from a big box store.

(Unless the Lard-Ass-In-Chief kept breaking the good ones.)

10. In the photo on the left it looks like...

the piece of paper reads "Qualipro." Here's what I get when I google "Qualipro"

https://www.controlsolutionsinc.com/quali-pro
"Quali-Pro® has been a leader in the development of innovative and post-patent formulations, offering professionals the industry’s widest array of active ingredients. Quali-Pro provides solutions for lawn care professionals, sports turf managers, and golf course superintendents that are backed by university research and a dedicated staff of professionals."

14. I read that as "Qualified I ..."

Maybe "qualified immunity."

“Qualified immunity balances two important interests—the need to hold public officials accountable when they exercise power irresponsibly and the need to shield officials from harassment, distraction, and liability when they perform their duties reasonably.”

[Manfred Arcane]

21. What you say makes more sense...

I didn't notice the beginning of the "D" near the right hand side of the paper.

[Historic NY]

12. Toilet paper stuck to his shoe twice.

13. The pens he uses would withstand water, but wouldn't even heavy paper be more tattered? These

pics appear too pristine for a clog regurgitation.

[allegorical oracle]

19. Hmm... WHO thinks to enter a bathroom just after the POTUS exits to photograph the toilet?

A friend or a foe?

[SergeStorms]

15. I don't think Trump even used them for "#2"....

I think these were just document disposal units. Trump would never plant his gargantuan ass on a toilet that wasn't gold plated.

Besides, like a 4 year old that isn't potty trained, Trump just changed his diaper. Like a poster above said, he probably saved his soiled diapers and sold them to his cult, or they'll be cataloged and saved for the smallest building ever constructed, the Donald Trump presidential library.

Mr. Malignant Narcissist would never sit on anything not having gold on it somewhere. 😒

16. Stefanik?

Sort of fitting her name would be in trumps shitter.

[infullview]

20. This can't be T***p's toilet

It's not gold
