While the former president asserts that he issued a standing order to declassify anything he wanted to keep, that defense has been roundly refuted by many of his own aides. While a president certainly has the authority to declassify certain kinds of information, he must still adhere to established processes. Proper declassification would also be evident by appropriate markings on the affected documents. In other words, there would be a paper trail.

I'm not sure this is true. But it doesn't matter here - simply declassifying government documents doesn't make them Trump's to keep. They're still government documents.

It's like selecting the POTUS. Some say there's a process, but there doesn't have to be a process.
