Under Executive Order 13526 a president has the legal power to declassify information. The ruling was confirmed by the SCOTUS in 1988. Was Donald Trump president when those documents left the White House? NPR continuously states that there is a “criminal investigation” along with a NIRA violation.  Can someone explain how this is worse then what Hillary or Berger did?

 Executive Order 13526

As president, Trump has the legal power to declassify information. He also has the authority to share information with whomever he wants, including foreign adversaries.

Trump is protected under an executive order that was signed by Barack Obama in 2009 establishing a uniform system for "classifying, safeguarding and declassifying national security information."

The Supreme Court confirmed as much in its 1988 ruling in Department of Navy v. Egan.
