Trump’s Pigpen Theory of the Presidency has no legal basis. He believes that some cloud of Art. II power/norms/follows him after he leaves office: executive privilege, power to declassify, immunity from prosecution. It doesn’t. He’s no different than the dude who works at Walmart

But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.”

@goldengateblond

if there isn’t a hall of fame for quotes that aged poorly then this alone justifies its creation

"Short of the nuclear codes being written on these documents," said @DanaPerino earlier today, "I really don't understand how a document could warrant this kind of warrant."
