Well, Trump can try to argue that, but if that is the basis of his defense, he will have to try to persuade 12 laymen of that.

Name the office or person(s) that POTUS as head of the Executive branch of our government has to report to. I can help you out. The answer is no-one.

I see you identify with Pelosi's view on guilty until proven innocent. That's a real bad look FRiend.

Nice ad hominem attack - just what I expect from you.

The idea that you are trying to propose, that merely by being president anything he takes from office is automatically declassified is not one established by any law or court case that I can find. So to use that as a defense, Trump would need to convince 12 people without a lot of understanding of the law and Constitution that what you are saying is true. If the documents are still marked as classified, to disprove that by proving he declassified them. The transcript and audio tape would appear to make that a hard sell.

I know that for you and many others, Trump could say the sky is green and you would accept it as gospel. I think about 70% of the population, even if they support Trump, would require something more substantial than just his word.
