Original Note:
The tweet is misleading because the classification status of a document plays no role in the context of the Espionage Act which predates the classification system. It's still illegal to keep declassified documents that do not belong to you and not returning them when requested. https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/trump-faces-difficult-odds-classified-documents-case-2023-06-13/
