[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would just like to point out that since there is no evidence he declassified any documents,[b] he would actually need to take the stand to assert that as a defense.[/b] Since the espionage act does not rely on classification, that would be a very, very bad idea for any criminal defendant in this situation. He may have more hubris than a dump truck can carry, but for his sake, I sincerely hope he listens to his counsel on what testifying in his own defense will do to his chances of a successful appeal. The declassification argument is complete and utter bullshit in practice, and I wish some of the PPs would make the effort to learn about their own legal system. What you’re suggesting will be a disaster for him legally. [/quote]

He hasn't asserted it in ANY of the court pleadings to date. Too late.[/quote]

It’s not too late. He hasn’t presented a defense yet. His attorneys have been arguing over access to seized material. [/quote]

He and his attorneys have filed other papers related to this and in none of them, has he claimed he declassified. In fact, he is on tape admitting he hasn't and hadn't. Why is this hard to understand?[/quote]

I’m aware. That doesn’t change what I said. He still has yet to present a defense, and it’s not too late. Too stupid? Yes, but not too late. [/quote]

The problem Trump has, is that at this point, it doesn't matter whether the documents were classified, or not. They were/are work product of agencies that constitute national defense and as such, should not have been in his possession under any circumstance. When others had possession and were asked to return it, they did. When Trump was asked, he had the documents moved to hide them from his attorneys and from FBI investigators.

See the difference?[/quote]
