I found this one interesting👇
It makes sense to me.
Trump can’t hide documents AND call in his own witnesses.
They didn't have to deal with hostile (or adverse) witnesses, and the witnesses likely to lie for Trump didn't show up.
Because so many witnesses were willing—and even eager— to testify, the obstruction backfired.
He can't hide evidence, then try to distort it.
Or, this: "You're not cooperating. You don't get your own witnesses."
