My phone rang off the hook as soon as the news hit. According to reporting from The Washington Post, internal White House phone records turned over to the House Jan. 6 committee included a gap of seven hours and 37 minutes. A lot can be said in 457 minutes.
Comparisons to the 18.5-minute gap in a crucial President Richard Nixon recording were immediately obvious to me. After all, I was the prosecutor who cross-examined Nixon’s secretary, Rose Mary Woods, about how that gap came to be. And I am not the only one to make that connection.
Those similarities — and the differences — are illuminating as lawmakers continue to battle apparent obstruction in their investigation of the events leading up to and during the Capitol riot.
First, Nixon’s gap seems — based on my experience and other experts — to have been a deliberate erasure. Is Trump’s? We don’t have enough evidence to say for sure yet, but the missing chunk certainly appears deliberate.
It is often said that Nixon’s cover-up was worse than his underlying crime. The reverse is potentially true for Trump. Trump’s records gap is 25 times as long as Nixon’s, but his alleged crime could be incalculably worse.

Don’t confuse people with the facts.
More BS; media wets their panties at the very thought.
Adam Schitt will fill inthe gaps. He always does
Yep. See Tagline.
The punishment for malicious political lies must be death.
I have no doubt that some swamp creature created the “gap”, trying to resurrect the bogeyman of Nixon. The left is absolutely terrified of Trump and what he represents.
I could imagine him not wanting to talk to people that day.
It is unusual, I guess. But the possible scenarios are not all nefarious.
Someone send granny Jill yesterday’s news clippings. To the corrupt deep state’s great deep disappointment the whole gap thing has been explained and is another nothingburger.
Was shown to be bogus the other day.
Today, there are no wiser heads. Just throw everything against the wall and hope something sticks - there is no penalty if it doesn't.
Exactly!
I can see them now planning the news haunts each day. Did you dream last night about something the Trump’s did?!!! If no one rises to the bait, everyone gets a happy pill for tomorrow.
Why is this story running two days after it was debunked?
*Was shown to be bogus the other day.*
What does that matter? Their viewers won’t know that, and won’t find out from NBC.

Republicants have to stop playing defense. Go after braindead. There’s a ton of stuff to nail this bastard on. Get the impeachment drumbeat going for starters at least.
