Why is she still in possession of those documents? Hopefully they’re all about yoga, and weddings.

I’m not sure documents from the campaign (before Trump became President) could be protected under executive privilege.

It’s Reuters, so it’s not possible to know yet to what extent this report is factual.

What could she possibly have that mueller has not been all over anyway? These documents are not covered by executive privilege. Now, will linsey do the same to the hillary campaign? Yes, that was a joke.

Indeed - how would Mueller have not already had these documents.

Looks like a ploy just to generate more headlines for the press to run with it like something new had been learned.

Maybe she saw the pending transfer of Mueller to likely dbe murdered in Rykers Island Jail as a pretty strong warning to cooperate with the thugs..

Campaign documents would not be under executive privilege. Sounds like she is threading the needle here.

Oops, I meant to type Manafort, not Mueller going to Rykers, and please ignore the “d” before the be.

I’d LIKE to see Mueller sent to Rykers.

She never was too bright in my opinion. She had no business anywhere near the White House.

Out of over a million documents the WH turned over to “Bob”, could this Hicks drip be holding some hot numbers “Bob” has never seen? Bull hockey!

“Sounds like she is threading the needle here.”

A woman scorned? I don’t think so. It’s been too long. Why now?

I’m not sure Congress has the authority to compel documents not relating to Government Oversight. If the Congress thinks they have the authority then Trump equally has a right to claim Executive Privilege. And, yes, why is she still in possession of 2-3 year old campaign documents?

President Trump trusted her and spoke highly of her, so obviously you know her much better than he does.
