before he fail to comply with last year subpoena. back with us to discuss it all, neal katyal, department of justice veteran and former acting solicitor general during the obama administration. neil, how bad is all of this for trump? very, very bad. both on the civil front, on the criminal front and i think things are looking pretty bad for him. he s already lost the first e. jean carroll trap, and had to pay $5 million in damages. and now he keeps taking that hold deeper. and with respect to the criminal investigation of jack smith, and those documents that trump stole and brought to mar-a-lago, i mean even bill barr has said this case is very strong, in every new development, steph, include of those today. they appeared to make it stronger. he said he had to pay her $5 million. do you think is actually done that or will? this is trump. well, yes, he ll appeal and tried to stretch adele. but i think that the basis of gene curls action, today, the new seeking of damages is not
