Abstract
Trump's lawyers did not back up the legally dubious explanation with any evidence that Trump had actually moved to declassify the materials, but it remained one of Trump's most robust defenses as the probe wound on. In the early months of the investigation, as the probe appeared to center on classified materials Trump had improperly kept in his possession after he left office, Trump's main defense centered on the issue of classification.
