Rep. McCaul: Trump has 'different set of rules' for declassifying documents “I have lived in the classified world most of my professional career, I personally wouldn't do that but I'm not the president of the United States.”
Former Attorney General Bill Barr and former national security adviser John Bolton have contradicted claims by Trump and his legal team thatI have lived in the classified world most of my professional career, I personally wouldn't do that but I'm not the president of the United States," McCaul said.
"He has a different set of rules that apply to him. The president can declassify a document on a moment's notice and we don't have all the facts," he added. "I know they were taken out of the White House while he was president. And whether or not he declassified those documents remains to be seen, he says he did, I don't have all the facts there."
"There's a process for declassification, but again the president's in a very different position than most of us in the national security space."
