I've read that he pushed for that bill with Hillary in mind...

Some excerpts for those without access to the article:
Glenn S. Gerstell, the top lawyer for the National Security Agency from 2015 to 2020, pronounced the idea that whatever Mr. Trump happened to take upstairs each evening automatically became declassified â without logging what it was and notifying the agencies that used that information â âpreposterous.â
The claim is also irrelevant to Mr. Trumpâs potential troubles over the document matter, because none of the three criminal laws cited in a search warrant as the basis of the investigation depend on whether documents contain classified information.
...
Are there formal procedures for declassifying information?
Yes. The 2009 executive order directs the head of the department or agency that originally deemed information classified to oversee declassification reviews, and it sets some standards for them.
The executive branch has regulationslaying out the process that should be followed, such as a requirement to make sure that other agencies and departments with an interest in the secret are consulted. There are also procedures for the removal of classification markings on documents.
...
Do presidents have to obey the usual procedures?
There is no Supreme Court precedent definitively answering that question.
...
Can a president secretly declassify information without leaving a written record or telling anyone?
That question, according to specialists in the law of government secrecy, is borderline incoherent.
If there is no directive memorializing a decision to declassify information and conveying it to the rest of the government, the action would essentially have no consequence, as departments and agencies would continue to consider that information classified and so would continue to restrict access to documents containing it.
âHypothetical questions like âWhat if a president thinks to himself that something is declassified? Does that change its status?â are so speculative that their practical meaning is negligible,â said Steven Aftergood, a secrecy specialist with the Federation of American Scientists.
He added: âItâs a logical mess. The system is not meant to be deployed in such an arbitrary fashion.â

While it is legally irrelevant, former President Donald J. Trump claims he had declassified the top secret files the F.B.I. seized at his Florida residence.

In a news bit this morning I heard that the remaining documents were supposed to have been declassified by him, but there was no paperwork to back up that claim.
