Maybe Trump can rescind Obama’s exec order that sealed all of his own records?

Which EO, by number, is that? Here is a link to help you out...

Barack Obama Executive Orders Disposition Tables

Or is this it? Executive Order 13489 Presidential Records
Presidential records aren't personal records.

Sec. 5. (b) This order shall be implemented consistent with applicable law and subject to the availability of appropriations.

Congress has a say on this too...
Public Law No: 113-187 (11/26/2014) Presidential and Federal Records Act Amendments of 2014

Anyway, if that's the EO you're talking about can you show me the words that "seal" his records?

Presidential Records (44 U.S.C. Chapter 22)

Note - § 2201. Definitions
(2) The term "Presidential records"...
(3) The term "personal records"...
