Trump says as president he could declassify documents just by thinking in his head that they're declassified.
That's beyond wrong, it's insane.
So if as president, Trump declassified documents in his mind. Then as soon as he was gone, Biden could've reclassified them in his mind. So Trump would still have classified documents he's not allowed to have.
If all documents can either be classified or unclassified by the president in his head, but no one knows it until he says it, are all government documents both classified and unclassified?
Did we just invent SchrΓΆdinger's Document?
If the president can secretly declassify anything in his head, how does the government know that anything is Top Secret?
Gah, we feel like we've made ourselves dumber by even considering the possibilities.
