Twitter Users Think Trump’s Document Defense Sounds More Like A Confession

A few hours later, he posted a two-part comment in which he admitted having the documents, but claimed they had been declassified:

“Number one, it was all declassified. Number two, they didn’t need to “seize” anything. They could have had it anytime they wanted without playing politics and breaking into Mar-a-Lago. It was in secured storage, with an additional lock put on as per their request…”

“They could have had it anytime they wanted—and that includes LONG ago. ALL THEY HAD TO DO WAS ASK. The bigger problem is, what are they going to do with the 33 million pages of documents, many of which are classified, that President Obama took to Chicago?”

Many Twitter users noted that Trump’s comments sure seemed more like a confession than a defense.
