Donald Trump has made his first television appearance since the FBI raid on his Mar-a-Lago estate which turned up roughly 100 documents marked ‘classified’.
The former President – whose legal woes appear to be going from bad to worse – came up with the most unusual of explanations why they weren’t in fact classified after all …

Trump also believes that if you cover your eyes with your hands, no-one can see you.
It prompted no end of comment, as you might imagine, and these people surely said it best.

“You know, I’m automatically attracted to documents — I just start declassifying them. It’s like magic. Just declassify. I don’t even wait. And when you’re the president, they let you do it. Declassify Israel’s nuclear secrets and sell them to the Saudis. You can do anything.”

If Trump can declassify documents just by “thinking about it,” Biden can re-classify them just by thinking about it. Checkmate.

No, you can’t. And their classification status is irrelevant to it BEING ILLEGAL for him to have:
—Removed them from a secure facility
—Stored them at Mar-a-Lago
—Refused to return them even after being subpoenaed
—Had them in his possession 19 months after leaving the WH

But I thought those documents were planted there by the FBI?

Imagine working for a “news” network & the guy says you can declassify documents just by “thinking it” & everyone knows it’s total bullshit & you say nothing.
How do you live w yourself? How does your network leave you on the air? Don’t you care how stupid he’s making you look?
