    Please provide anything supplementary stating the desire to remove it was a political one. Cocaine does not belong at the White House. I concede due process should be followed and storing it for 7 years securely was probably the better option, but you’re just making assumptions for what is also a very reasonable stance.

    All signs that this was political in the NYPost article here are conjecture. What do you have that’s concrete?

      Reminds me of the timeless Ronald Reagan quote:

      A few months ago I told the American people I did not trade arms for hostages. My heart and my best intentions tell me that’s true, but the facts and evidence tell me it is not.

          Ronald was an amazing man. You can disagree with him politically and still say he was an interesting man. I personally agree with his politics but I admire most his sense of humor. I wish more presidents could have his sense of humor.

        He did. You want to know something wild? Israel supplied arms to Iran as well I was just a kid during that war but now that I’m older, we supplied both sides which is insane.
