“Donald Trump’s fight to claim personal ownership of his presidential records is about more than history β it is, legal experts warn, an effort to build a permanent legal shield against any future investigation that might seek access to documents from his time in office.
A Justice Department opinion quietly released in April declared the Presidential Records Act of 1978 unconstitutional, arguing that the law β enacted after Watergate specifically to prevent presidents from controlling or destroying evidence of their official conduct β limits the “constitutional independence and autonomy” of the executive branch. The opinion, written by a Trump loyalist in the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel, would give Trump sole control over which records survive and which are made public.”
