[ light laughter ] it's been wild. at the end of each day in court, trump stands in the hallway and shouts at the media like a crazy person. [ laughter ] of course certain parts of the trial have been boring, but others have been absolutely electric. [ laughter ] but that didn't stop trump from falling asleep several times, which was super awkward. [ laughter ] trump actually claimed he would testify, but when the moment came, he completely froze. [ laughter ] but he knows his future is at stake and that his very freedom is teetering on the edge. [ light laughter ] meanwhile, the prosecution is just hoping that their case has reached the jury and wormed its way into their brains. [ laughter ] a lot of people think trump is guilty, so if he's found innocent, they'll be blown away. [ laughter ] overall, it's been historic because we've never seen anything like this since america was born in is 1776. [ cheers and applause ] well, speaking of the former president, according to a new report, trump's attorneys found classified documents in his bedroom four months after the fbi searched mar-a-lago.

the lawyers knew trump was hiding something when they saw a box labelled "books." [ laughter ] four months after the fbi search of mar-a-lago, trump's lawyers found more classified documents in his bedroom. in response, this fbi agent said, "we thought we'd searched everywhere, but we must have missed some things." and this fbi agent said, "trump's bedroom was searched, but not enough." and this person said, "don't ask me. i've never been in that room before."
