Trump was on Sean Hannity's show on Wednesday and said, almost unbelievably, "If you're the President of the United States, you can declassify just by saying, 'It's declassified,' even in there. reflective." The absurdity continued... "There doesn't have to be a process, there can be a process, but there doesn't have to be any," adding, "You are President, you make that decision."

Trump tried to block the Justice Department's criminal investigation and insisted that a special master be appointed to determine what is fair to prosecutors.
