Summary

One of Donald Trump's lawyers - Evan Corcoran - recorded a voice memo about his representation with Trump in the classified documents case. The recordings provided insight into Corcoran's first meeting with the ex-president last year when he advised Trump to comply with the Justice Department subpoena seeking the return of all classified materials in the former president's possession. Glenn says the recordings hold important evidence for Special Counsel Jack Smith to use against Trump during his inevitable upcoming trial. Then Glenn explains there are other reasons to make this type of recording. It's possible Evan Corcoran may need them to defend himself against false accusations from Trump.
