"SNIP.....

“The DNC research team has mined thousands of lawsuits from nearly 50 states as part of a massive new trove on President Trump that will be weaponized through pols and reporters in key battlegrounds,” Axios reports.

“This new plan shows what Democrats think Trump’s biggest vulnerabilities will be. And unlike in 2016, Trump now has a policy record.”

“The research includes roughly 7,000 lawsuits, as well an extensive document detailing every time then-candidate Trump told supporters at his 2016 campaign rallies that Mexico would pay for the wall.”

“A source familiar said this document will likely find its way to local reporters, groups and Democrats in battleground states as Trump diverts funds from the military to pay for his border wall.”

The Clinton volunteer lawyer team recruited a couple hundred volunteer lawyers to review 6000+ cases. Marc Elias’ firm had scanned these cases onto a database and we had volunteer lawyers review and do summaries of these cases. At the end they first ran out of cases and then added a good number. I reviewed about 100 cases

I wonder if Marc turned this over to the DNC
