Why are Trump's lawyers meeting with the Judge tomorrow about the classified documents? [View all]

What classified documents? I thought he "de-classified" all of them?

Is that what the lawyers are going to tell Judge Cannon?

The very fact that the lawyers are meeting to discuss how to handle the classified documents proves the point that Trump is lying. But, what's new?

After the meeting, how long until Trump is indicted, again?
