TL;DR Summary

Former US President Donald Trump is facing 37 felony charges related to the alleged mishandling of classified documents. A 2021 audio recording obtained by The Washington Post appears to undercut Trump's claims that he had declassified the documents before leaving office or didn't know about possessing restricted documents after leaving the White House. The recording features Trump describing a multi-page document related to Iran that he alleges is about possibly attacking the country. Trump is also accused of disclosing sensitive papers in unsecured environments, post-presidency, to individuals who lacked the necessary security clearances required to view any classified information.
