CNN: Per the indictment, “[Trump] states on at least one occasion [on tape] that he did not declassify the information.”

Jordan: “[Trump] has said time & time again he’s declassified all this material. This is the most political thing I have ever seen.” https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/jim-jordan-contradicts-trump-while-defending-him-1234768709/

A Yelling Jim Jordan Contradicts Trump While Defending Him

The former president, according to the indictment, admitted on tape that he did not declassify certain information. Jim Jordan doesn’t believe it

Rolling Stone
@RollingStone "A Yelling Jim Jordan" is rather redundant. It's like saying "a painful kick in the nuts".
@RollingStone Gym J loves it when criminals walk, and yells when they face charges of conspiracy and worse.
@RollingStone way to keep buying charges, dingbat
@RollingStone they know their supporters will believe anything they say. The declassification is completely irrelevant with these charges even if he did do it.
@RollingStone
Jim Jordan can’t argue the facts and he can’t argue the law so he yells. It’s classic bad lawyering.
@RollingStone why are all republicans brain dead? They been drinking from the Jim Jones kool aid cup?
@RollingStone Gym Jordan #GymJordan is a moron. He truly possesses a single-digit I.Q.
@RollingStone they're all literal nazis and they are doing this on purpose. They will not stop unless we stop them in the following elections, every year, starting this November. They must be stopped or we lose any semblance of democracy we have left.
The people in the gop primary see NOT running FOR president they are diluting the anti trump vote and jockeying for VP. It is all a game to them and they are all working toward the same goal, total, unfettered rule.
@RollingStone Classified v. Declassified is not an issue. The classified docs contained NATIONAL DEFENSE INFORMATION, and would continue to contain national defense info even IF they were declassified. And that’s what’s in the charges under the Espionage Act. National defense information.
@RollingStone Gym is such a sweet talking intellectual… He maintains a level of Pedo-Grifter Christo-Fascist that makes my NAZI-O-Meter and Fascist-O-Scope peg itself 😉
@RollingStone
Jim Jordan couldn't even see his wrestling team being molested in the next room.

@Oldfartrant @RollingStone

He "claims" he didn't know. Even though scores of the victims stated they told him directly....

@RollingStone what's overlooked by that interview entirely (and it utterly ruins Jordan's argument) is that nuclear secrets aren't classified by the President via executive order, they're classified by law, and those were among his papers (credit to @Pwnallthethings for pointing that out)
