Rod Rosenstein, who served in the Trump-era Justice Department, weighed in on how Robert K. Hur should approach his probe into Biden's classified documents.

"The key question—the threshold question here—is going to be, was President Biden aware of these classified documents," Rosenstein said, adding that Hur will also have to look into whether, as vice president, Biden had the authority to declassify the documents.

Instead, Wu said prosecutors should begin by interviewing people involved with the documents and who packed up his office before he vacated the White House, probing whoever would have brought the documents to the locations they were found in. He added that they should establish a chain of custody, and that it could be"fuzzy" because it was so long ago.

Robert K. Hur will never be allowed to ask Biden that question.
