Donald Trump has denied claims that he had clogged his White House toilet with a massive dump (of papers).Claims that the 45th President clogged his toilet with papers after the toilet appeared to have been flushed have been strongly denied by Trump.Staff in Trump's White House reportedly discovered papers blocking the president's bathroom form time to time, and believed the president was tearing up papers and trying to flush them away.Reports from Axios cited Maggie Haberman's latest book, Confidence Man, as a source for the clogged papers which Mr Trump has dismissed as "fake news".A statement was released by the former president and alleged toilet clogger, saying: "Also, another fake story, that I flushed papers and documents down a White House toilet, is categorically untrue and simply made up by a reporter in order to get publicity for a mostly fictitious book."The claim from Haberman's newest book comes after officials allegedly took 15 boxes of presidential documents from Trump's Florida residence instead of transporting them to the National Archives when he left office.Claims that the former president has violated the Presidential Records Act have been voiced after Trump removed documents from Mar-a-Lago instead of submitting them to the archives when he left office.Reports in The Independent also suggest that White House staff often had to gather pieces of torn up documents and tape them back together. A former aide, Omarosa Manigault Newman, claims to have seen Mr Trump eating paperwork in the Oval Office.Speculation over the missing Mar-a-Lago documents have sparked potential legal trouble for Trump's potential 2024 re-election bid.
