Looks like the civil servant has a very old phone system, probably no up-to-date computer system and on top of that he will be investigated by a congressional committee for trying to do his job.
The problem isn’t all Trump or Biden. The problem is institutional. Decision makers all up and down the ladder want access to classified, yet have no idea how to handle it and believe that the rules apply to everyone but themselves.
They do seem less capable than your typical small town old library lady. “YOUR TOP SECRET FILE IS OVERDUE AT FIFTY CENTS A DAY! DON’T MAKE ME COME OVER THERE!”

The documents should have little cards to check them out, and when the secret docs are overdue you get fined 5 cents a day.

In the case of presidents, that seems to be the case. VPs, not so much.

Nonsense. The vast majority of classified documents are stored in a variety of ways all over the world.
