Re: Why Were Documents At Mar A Lago In The First Place?
Except this post doesn’t do that. It simply asks why NARA treated the Trump administration differently than it did the previous five administrations, apparently in violation of the very Act it uses to accuse Trump of malfeasance.

Not really:
Washington — Since the indictment charging him with 37 federal felony counts was unsealed last week, former President Donald Trump and some of his allies have repeatedly mischaracterized a law known as the Presidential Records Act, according to legal experts and the federal agency charged with preserving White House records.
"Under the Presidential Records Act, I'm allowed to do all this," he wrote on Truth Social after the indictment was revealed, referring to his decision to retain dozens of boxes of documents and other material from his time in the White House. He repeated that claim in a speech in Georgia over the weekend, calling the charges a "fake indictment."
Former Trump attorney Tim Parlatore also misconstrued the law last week, telling CNN that outgoing presidents are "supposed to take the next two years after they leave office to go through all these documents to figure out what's personal and what's presidential."
Those assertions prompted a public rebuke from the National Archives and Records Administration, or NARA. The agency released a statement detailing how presidential records are meant to be handled.
The PRA requires that all records created by Presidents (and Vice-Presidents) be turned over to [NARA] at the end of their administrations," the Archives said.
NARA also refuted Parlatore's assertion, saying that there is "no history, practice, or provision in law for presidents to take official records with them when they leave office to sort through, such as for a two-year period as described in some reports."

"Obama took 33 MILLION documents when he left the White House and he stores them in an old furniture store. When Archives complained he said he was going to digitize the records and return the digitized copies to Archives.
Here is a 2018 letter from the Obama Foundation admitting it has classified documents, and that they are stored in a facility that does not meet security standards (see page 2, #7)."
SIX YEARS LATER he has yet to digitize, or return, a single record.
And yet NARA hasn't issued a single complaint nor requested that the DOJ investigate the ex-President.
