No one except 5th Avenue Trumpers believed Trump's ridiculous claim that he had waived a magic wand and declassified all the documents that ultimately made their way to Mar A Lago.
Presumably in an effort not to avoid making false statements to the Court, Trump's legal team has conceded the issue of "it was all declassified." Specifically, the two sides clashed before the court on the scope of the documents the special master will be able to review. Trump's position was that the SM should see all documents, including the classified ones. The DOJ has argued against the SM being able to review classified or top secret documents.
Notably absent from any pleading or position Trump's lawyers have taken before the court is that ALL documents had previously been declassified. Conceding what we knew all along- that Trump was lying out his ass (again) to have made that claim.
Note: the link is to MSN which I'm sure Trumpers will dismiss with their typical claim of fake news. Before doing so, please cite any pleading wherein Trump's lawyers have made the legal argument "it was all declassified."
