Given there is an obvious inside informant....there is most likely more to come on that. It could be that Trump just stupidly dug in his heels and refused to cooperate.
It is when you are POTUS. Anyone else is delegated the task of declassifying documents and therefore has to follow a procedure but POTUS does not as he is the ultimate authority when it comes to declassification.
Provide a link where Trump has publicly stated--while he was in office--that those materials were officially de-classified. If you can't then it never happened.

Shall we follow that logic to its conclusion? The stance seems to be that the documents are now declassified by a process that appears to be "Former Guy decided that they should be so when he had the authority, but didn't tell anyone". If we run with that, the docs are now declassified. Does that mean that the public can get access by filing an FOIA request?
Also, a sitting President may have the authority to declassify military secrets. But there is such a thing as classification by statute, and certain docs - in a particular, those having to do with nuclear technology - fall under that. Bodies appointed by the legislature oversee that process.
Of course, the statutes cited in the warrant has nothing to do with classification levels.

These Trump supporters have yet to explain why does he have classified documents at his personal residence and why were they not turned over when the government requested them. I will wait for an explanation.
Because the FBI had them. And was put there during their secret search. And of course, we can't have council following us around
Why did he have any presidential record that should be in NARA this long after he left office whether it was top secret or not?
