When Donald Trump invited his longtime White House valet, Walt Nauta, to join his post-presidential political operation in August 2021, he was hiring a body man with serious baggage.

Weeks before Nauta—a Navy enlistee stationed with the White House Presidential Support Detail since 2012—traded Washington, D.C. for Palm Beach, Navy officials had escorted him off of White House grounds, reassigned him to a new post, and docked his White House security clearance in response to accusations of fraternization, adultery, harassment, and other inappropriate sexual conduct, including “revenge porn,” two people with direct knowledge of the matter told The Daily Beast.

Only the "BEST" people. If he gets a second chance it will be only the "WORST".

TDS is still Trump derangement syndrome for Dems and their likes no matter how you try to spin it
Trump is 10x better than Biden in my book

That book is worth more than your brain

Fraternization- he was romancing military personnel junior to his rank.

Adultery- sex out of wedlock. Not a crime in the civil system, but against military good order and discipline.

So he was having sex with other military personnel and when they dumped him posted their mutually made sex tapes.

If you believe the daily beast. Quoting unnamed “sources with knowledge”


Does it sound like something Trump would do? No. He has NDA’s and lawyers to try and prevent revenge porn…

But I certainly see the cadlike behavior similarities and find the comment mildly humorous.

Of course, I do believe informing someone of military disciplinary file information is probably every bit as much a violation of USCMJ.

and here you are defending sexual predators again.

Revenge Porn is a crime.

Then I assume you should be able to find legal charges as opposed to some "unnamed sources with knowledge"?

Maybe, maybe the victim does not want the publicity of a criminal trial.

Maybe, the military chain of command, I think chain of command can still chose not to prosecute this, did not want to prosecute him for revenge porn?

I am glad that sex assaults have been removed from the discretion of the chain of command. Maybe, even more discretion needs to be stripped.

Bottom line is revenge porn is a crime.

I gotta say, I'm disappointed with your response. Some of our fellow Americans are held to a higher standard, you folks in medicine being one, law enforcement and military being others.

One of several reasons I didn't have any interest in the military as a career was knowing I wouldn't meet their standards. I do talk back, I do bend rules, I do try to get away with it. I would have been the 20 year old private in the brig for telling a CO to jump in the creek. I would have been the 25 year old private discharges for shooting a nice buck on base with my service weapon. I couldn't handle the standard so I stayed out. That has nothing to do with other folks circumstances or who would have told on me, I'm a grown up, I can take responsibility for myself as can the subject in the OP.

Actually, I tend to buy that the military would not have just pulled him from the WH over those types of accusations, but thrown his ass in the brig.

What the daily beast is implying is that the military swept it under the rug and Trump hired him despite that.

Frankly, I don't know what he did or didn't do. Typically if you are EM they throw the book at you.

From a military point of view, if someone was disclosing someone's personnel records to the press, they are going to be so far in a hole it makes me wonder what is going on. They have a record of everyone who looks at those.

In short, I don't really trust the journalistic integrity of the daily beast.

This sounds more like politics than the military.

The point being that excepting revenge porn nothing he did was a crime in civilian circles... and depending on releases that had been signed (ie porn making type activity) even that might not be strictly illegal- which would explain why no one is under arrest for what happened.

Like I said, not Trump's thing- he would not want the publicity of the sex tapes. Having sex with folks out of wedlock? Yeah, that's the Donald's line, but its something that a lot of folks do.

I don't think Trump is living up to the level I expect of the president... but then, neither does Biden. Biden's a sleazy politician, Trump is a sleazy RE developer. Nether are high on my list of folks to respect.

Thus the comment that the bad behavior between Trump and his employee being compared is mildly humorous to me.
