The fact that Trump never formally declassified anything, and also
never raised it to DOJ, but is asserting it (unofficially) now, is
actually an incredibly damning admission by Trump. That's because it
means that *he wanted these secrets to still have value* Had Trump
formally declassified these secrets, he would have had to notify all
the agencies responsible for the respective intel. They, in turn, would
have taken steps to protect methods and sources. Why? Because it would
no longer be secret. If you *really* think something should be public,
then you want to take steps to protect the sources of the intel before
you release it. But Trump claims he did it secretly. That means he *intentionally* wanted to leave these sources and methods exposed. Why
would you want that? Only if you wanted the secrets to have value to
someone. Similarly, if he had asserted declassification to DOJ, they 'd
ask, "Which ones?" He'd have to show what he had. Again, once the USG
knows, the secrets get protected, i.e. no value as "secrets" Of course,
he conveniently trots out the claim that he "declassified" them know --
once he is found out. The gig is up, so now he thinks it's a shield.
But you only secretly "declassify" if you want secrets to remain
valuable while giving yourself "cover" if you get discovered.
This is the criminality that Betty Boo Hoo has been defending; NO
patriot woould ever do that.

Sorry to disappoint asshole, but no one is interested in what an
unemployed dog walker has to say. Do something useful, go find a
job. Be a contributor, instead of a leech on the system.

I will leave that to you Grandpa. Got better things to do than waste time with this loon. Besides you are more fun. You are three times the laugh factor of this unemployed dog walking dimwit.
