… some sort of “standing order” that White House documents be deemed declassified when taken to Trump residences

Uh, no. My understanding is that de-classification isn’t like waving a magic wand. There’s gotta be paperwork for anything you de-classify, not to mention a review process with the involved agencies. I mean, c’mon, this is government – OF COURSE there has to be paperwork.

No, I believe there was a lock, but the FBI requested that they use a more secure one.

As I understand it, that’s not what happened. The FBI and other officials who visited in June didn’t ask for a padlock. The FBI basically said “This isn’t a secure location and it can’t ever be secured for the national defense documents you’re holding, so you should abide by this here subpoena and return the documents.”

And Trump, because he is who he is, fell into that trap and put a padlock on the door, ignoring the subpoena.

Now he’s guilty of Willful Retention of National Defense Information, which is a serious crime that others have gone to jail for.

I just have 1 complaint about your statement. The last line. It should say:

Especially, when a president does it. That is especially true when the president is a lifetime criminal.
