Umm, whose Government is it, Mr. Trump?

donald-trumpObama has already set a high bar about being the worst Administration in the openness and transparent department – and now Trump wants to recreate it as Act 2?

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump said he would try to prevent inside accounts of a Trump White House from leaking out years later.

In a wide-ranging interview with The Washington Post published Saturday, Trump said he would want high-level federal employees to sign nondisclosure agreements. “When people are chosen by a man to go into government at high levels, and then they leave government and they write a book about a man and say a lot of things that were really guarded and personal, I don’t like that,” Trump said.

Sorry, that’s not how it works unless you worked for the NSA, CIA, or other places where national security could be put at risk.  Sorry Donald, FOIAs are the law of the land – even in the Oval Office. You can do what you want as a private entity but there are rules and laws about what is secret and what isn’t – no blanket NDAs.
