"But as I understand, that doesn't have to be. If you're the president of the United States, you can declassify just by saying: 'It's declassified.' Even by thinking about it. Because you're sending it to Mar-a-Lago, or to wherever you're sending it," Trump said.

He went on to claim that he understood that "there can be a process" to declassify documents but that it didn't necessarily apply to him because he was president then.

"You're the president, you make that decision. So when you send it, it's declassified. I declassified everything," Trump claimed, adding that he believed the National Archives and Records Administration was run by a "radical left group."

I feel like this is a slightly dangerous line of defense to use, given the logical corollary is that the sitting President must therefore be able to classify documents equally as easily and with an equal lack of documented process. And given there's documented evidence of the Government repeatedly asking for said documents back, it stands to reason that the current President must have exercised that power in the same way that Trump claimed to when he was the President, and as a citizen he must have known at that point that the documents were once again classified.

Anyone who doesn't think that Trump is God's own personal emissary on Earth is a radical leftie though.

That is freaking hilarious

Agreed, and probably pretty accurate.
Trump was clearly an advocate and champion of the mentally retarded, judging by his cabinet.

My dad always says he's undefeated at tailgating

Maybe it's not I who doesn't know what he's talking about
