These are hard copies...like Trump. The difference is...Trump was President. Hundreds of administrators...like Comey...who classified his conversation with Trump. Had Trump known...he would have immediately have it declassified. So therein lies the problem with Classified Documents....hundreds can mark/send/receive them as being classified.
Hillary thought she was president in the 90s.
That’s an interesting point about who classifies papers to
be Classified.
