Why hasn’t team Trump released the warrant?
-
Hugh Hewitt writes a column that is often pro-Trump and pro-GOP. He has this to say about the Mar-A-Lago search warrant:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/08/09/trump-search-warrant-make-public/
“… the American public needs to see the warrant — all of it. The former president has a copy; he should make it public. It likely lists the items to be seized and the laws allegedly violated. The affidavit supporting the warrant is probably sealed, former prosecutors say, and Attorney General Merrick Garland can seek to unseal it.”

In the Yahoo excerpt I posted, it was mentioned that copies of the President's Daily Briefing were either found at Mar-a-Lago or strongly speculated to have been found. I've redd details about the handling of the PDB, and I could swear that whoever brought it to the Oval Office each day remained in the room while the President redd it, and took it away with him again.
So how did Trump have copies of it?

If true that would answer the question posed by this thread.

My guess is that “information related to nuclear weapons” is the most salacious phrase someone could concoct that has some stretchy connection to some part of the documents sought. Problem is that it doesn’t lend itself to criminal motive, short of a Lex Luthor sort of crime.

Don’t know. But I’ll be a little surprised if they fight it tomorrow.

Problem for whom? Does the statute in question require the establishment of motive?

Problem for those hoping this marks the death knell of his political career. Contrary to popular belief, I suspect there are enough swing votes at play that a red handed Trump caught dirty dealing government secrets would destroy him for 2024.

I would be too. It being made public is just a matter of time, and it’s hard to imagine them perceiving an advantage in a delay that would offset the optics of them fighting it.

Why would anyone petition to unseal a warrant against themselves, or why would they risk violating a court ordered public seal of a warrant? I don't know much about court ordered sealed warrants, but it seems that the seal would apply to all parties to not violate including the recipient.

I suspect that Trump is listening to his attorneys rather than Jon. At least, that's what I read in the news, that Trump was meeting with them. He's already said he would release it. I'm guessing their crafting whatever message they wish to accompany the document. Alternatively, they may be waiting to see what the affidavit says, before going public.

They could just release it. No need to petition anyone.

One of the diagnostic criteria for TDS is belief in the literal truth of that.
