Trump Campaign Turns Over Thousands of Documents in Russia Probe

[Shoonra]

5. Do not be surprised if many thousands of pages are grocery and laundry lists

Looks impressive to say that Trump turned over 20 thousand pages of documents, but I give odds that lots of those pages are barely written on, have nothing relevant or even coherent on them, and are just plain useless. And, you can be sure, this was not an accident.

Of course, if you (or the Committee) complains about this, the Trump White House would say something like 'We were told to deliver EVERYTHING. And if we had picked through it and pulled pages out we're sure the Democrats would have complained about the delay and about the missing pages. So there." And of course, it's a terrible burden on the Congressional Committee and anyone who works for it to sift through this mountain of paper. Very probably if someone had the time and the authority to sift through all that stuff and throw out the useless pages, it would probably shrink down to a couple of thousand pages quickly - but that's unlikely to happen.
