Three hundred documents left in the shed
Three hundred left in the shed;
Take one down, pass it around,
Collect a big check from the Reds...

[stratostatic]

The cult can go ahead and be mad.
We don't care.

[vaporman]

If he really wants to take the heat down in the country, he could admit all of his crimes and turn himself in to accept the consequences.

[bellosanimada]

Aa Really brought home how bad the situation is when the guy at the end expressed gratitude for simply having enough space to stand up inside his shared apartment...

[hurin]

Gee. He could be charged for one count on each of those documents. I sure do hope no prosecutor decides to charge him for that entire amount. Wink wink.

[margaretnicol]

He's just playing his base as usual. IF he wanted the affidavit unsealed why didn't his lawyers request that when they had the chance? He doesn't want his base to see it but when it comes out redacted he say 'look how much they're hiding from you!''. Slippery as always and they fall for it every time.

[Zyx]

Chris Hayes, please don't say 'president' when describing Mr. Trump. People who know better keep making this mistake. He's the 'former president'. Or just plain Trump.

[rickpapineau]

"Just let us know."

Okay, this is us letting you know what to do to turn down the temperature, lawyer-types. Tell your client to stop breaking the law and then playing the victim and lying about what happened.

[mitchelljenkins]

Really? 300? This is so crazy it all seems like a bad joke.

[wjmcd]

If the motion is 27 pages long, you know HE didn't write it

[paulbird]

President's don't need top secret classified documents to WRITE A BOOK.

[wendyprince]

If trump wants to turn the heat down…. He should turn himself in

[dnonlyever]

He had them taken with the intent to profit from them. He only cares about how he can benefit from it no matter who or how much damage he causes.

[geoffreymanning]

If you want to bring the heat down stop telling lies.

[hiltonsue-wah-sing]

That is more than 299 needed to make the case against him.

[blingbling]

At times like this, DOJ needs to double down to stop this lunatic.

[maddywendall]

I am Beyond Sick and Tired of We as Law Abiding Hardworking TAX PAYING Citizens having to day in day out having to Continually hear about this guy who is such a disgusting a moral unethical being who has So Many " Crimes" he is involved with....But Not Any Prosecution of Any Kind...Very Depressing for All Americans to to put up with.

[danielpierce]

So how many janitors a Mar-a-lago speak fluent Russian? "Nyet!! Not me!"

[reykjavik]

This is HUGE! At this point, prosecutors have all the rights to push the charges against him to put him in jail for good. It's not even 300 pages, but 300 documents. It's crazy.

[justiceleague]

Trump sues to block DOJ from viewing materials that he "stole" and doesn't belong to him....? The audacity of this man is mind boggling. He is constantly putting himself above the law, and this sense of intitlement is insane.
