    Hitler would deserve privacy if he were a United States private citizen. He was not, he was a foreign leader.

      See no he doesn’t if he’s a public official. The task of governing a large population requires transparency. I can’t believe that you argue in good faith that either a murdering fascist or a two bit con from New York deserves access to privacy while handling the affairs of multiple millions of people. Privacy laws do not apply to heads of state. You’re still arguing that these people should be able to avoid accountability for very real crimes.

        There’s still a right to privacy even if you do a job of public servant, unless the law specifically requires the release of those documents.

        Even a real criminal has a right to privacy, you don’t lose all your rights when you commit a crime
