Trump's Defense: Clinton's Sock Drawer and Presidential Records Act.

Former President Donald Trump cited a decade-old civil lawsuit known as the "Clinton socks case" as a legal defense for his alleged unlawful retention of hundreds of classified documents. However, legal experts argue that the case has no substantive impact on the criminal proceedings against him. The documents in question were not properly categorized as either personal or presidential records because they were created within the Defense Department or US Intelligence Community, not within the Executive Office of the President. Trump's claim to have designated them as "personal" is called "complete and utter bulls*** without compare" by a government records expert.
