    Flushed Office Papers Clogged Trump White House Toilet: Book

    A new book about former US President Donald Trump‘s time in office claims a White House toilet would become clogged after attempts to flush office papers, Axios reported Thursday.

    The forthcoming book “Confidence Man,” by New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman, says that “White House staff periodically discovered wads of printed paper clogging a toilet, and believed the president had thrown pieces of paper,” according to an exclusive. preview by Axios.

    Trump is already under investigation for taking 15 boxes of documents from the White House to his Florida residence. The National Archives, which has jurisdiction over the preservation of presidential documents, says Trump also had a habit of tearing up documents, some of which have already been taped together.

    The book, based in part on Haberman’s post-presidency interviews with Trump, reports that the Republican has told people he remains in contact with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. Letters sent by Kim to Trump during his presidency — “love letters” as Trump described them at the time — were among the documents brought to his Florida residence.

    Trump issued a statement denying he had broken presidential filing laws and said he had complied “without conflict and in a very amicable manner.”

    “Furthermore, another false story, that I flushed papers and documents down a White House toilet, is categorically false and simply made up by a reporter to gain publicity for a largely fictional book,” he wrote.

    Haberman’s book will be published on October 4. The veteran Times reporter has been keeping tabs on Trump for a decade, and for a long time he had access unmatched among journalists to the real estate mogul-turned-politician’s inner circle.
