National Archives is giving Special Counsel Jack Smith with records of communications with Trump and his advisors explaining the process for declassifing documents.
The main question I would like answered is if a President can just declassify something by thinking about it or just taking it home with him then how does law enforcement enforce the law regarding classified documents if there is no record. Theoretically someone could be prosecuted and convicted for mishandling documents that are not classified because there is no record of declassification.
