A handful of documents found by the FBI at Mar-a-Lago were so sensitive that even a senior Justice Department official didn’t have authorization to see them.

For anyone wondering why we keep top secret documentation in printed form, some of this stuff is so secret they don’t trust electronic devices to house it. To dump it in a bathroom in Mar-a-Lago is a sin that defies comprehension.
In a transcript of a July 2021 meeting obtained for his indictment, this is a direct quote from Trump, speaking to a White House staffer:
“Secret. This is secret information. Look, look at this.”
It would be hilarious if only it were a Monty Python sketch.
Only a senile malignant narcissist could lack the self-awareness to say such a thing. When I say Trump is clinically insane, this is what I mean. The fact that this man is president instills a dread approaching cosmic horror. My highest hope at this point is to survive the next three years without a nuclear holocaust.
Don’t forget that opposite the huge stack of document boxes was possibly a photocopy machine.

We actually know that documents were photocopied, because many of the documents he had were obviously photocopied. Classified documents have a colored border that goes all the way to the edge of the paper:
But the vast majority of photocopiers can’t print to the edge of the paper, (it requires specialized printers which aren’t commercially viable except in specialized print shops), which means photocopies of classified documents don’t have that solid colored edge. Photocopies have a thin white edge where the non-printable area is. And many of his documents had that white edge, which meant they were photocopies and the originals were missing.
