Trump -- (lack of) intelligence/personality (disorders)

The idea that those notes detail planning for the Jan 6 debacle, planning to overturn the election results, or other incriminating plans would explain why he would not return them and has fought so hard to claim they are his.

This seems unnecessarily speculative to me. First, as a mob boss, he knows never to put criminal plans in writing. Second, in the unlikely event he broke that rule, those papers would have gone into Mark Meadows’s fireplace.

Occam’s Razor is sufficient to explain his retention, in my mind. (“They’re mine, they make me feel important, you can’t tell me what to do.”)

IMHO, Trump is a lot smarter than you give him credit for.

Never underestimate the intelligence of your opponent.
