the former president s finances. according to notes that evan corcoran took of his conversations with his client, donald trump, the former president, wanted to fight the subpoena that demanded that he return classified documents that he had no right to have after his time in office. now, these notes taken by corcoran are providing more insight into trump s thinking and his actions around the time the criminal investigation was launched. and now they sit in the hands of a special counsel, jack smith. joining us now is john dean. he was the white house counsel for richard nixon. and just like evan corcoran, john, you testified about your conversations with president nixon. so, as you listen to what has been reported here, in your mind, why would there even be dozens of pages of documents, notes, about what to do with a lawful subpoena? shouldn t that conversation between attorney and client be pretty short? well, you i know mr. trump in the past said he was surprised his whit
