Trump time and again rejected the advice from lawyers and advisers who urged him to cooperate and instead took the advice of Tom Fitton, the head of the conservative group Judicial Watch, and a range of others who told him he could legally keep the documents and should fight the Justice Department, advisers said. Trump would often cite Fitton to others, and Fitton told some of Trump’s lawyers that Trump could keep the documents, even as they disagreed, the advisers said.

It is really hard to comprehend that millions of people think the guy who should lead our nation was told by his attorneys if he gave back the documents everything would be clear, and instead said, nah, I am going to trust the TV guy in a shrunken shirt and take on the DOJ and their 96% conviction rate.
