Smoking Gun: Trump’s Theft of Classified Iran Materials Caught on Tape, May bring him down

If he were the White House janitor he’d be done and dusted long ago. It’s not that he’s an ex- President either. He has enough money to stall justice and die long before he’s ever convicted.

Trump’s remarks on the tape create extreme legal jeopardy for him, since they reveal that he was aware that he possessed classified documents, and that he was not actually able any longer to declassify them. Moreover, the “Secret” classification is a sweet spot for espionage prosecutions, Lowell points out, since a mere “Confidential” classification is considered too trivial to bring charges over, while possession of a “Top Secret” document might not be prosecuted for fear that the document itself would be exposed to the light of day.
