Former U.S. President Donald Trump speaks during an event at Mar-a-Lago in West Palm Beach, Florida, on April 4, 2023.
Former Deputy Assistant Attorney General Harry Litman suggested reports surrounding an audio tape of Trump discussing having a classified document could be "game, set and match" for him.
In September 2022, Trump claimed that he had the power as president to declassify top secret documents just "by thinking about it.".
"And from an evidentiary point of view, audio tape with Trump saying that he's limited in his ability to show classified documents is game, set and match as far as intent and guilty knowledge go," he added in another tweet.

The meeting in question involved Trump and people helping his former chief of staff Mark Meadows write his autobiography.
While the sound of papers rustling is said to be heard in the audio recording, it is unclear if Trump was holding the document in question at the time. »
