President Clinton released 5,000 documents on Sotomayor. Bush released 42,000 on Kavanaugh.
Any questions?
What I want to know is if Sotomayor had 5,000 to be released or if the available documents was a much higher number. Of the possible documents, how many made it to the senate for review? If Bush released 42,000, but the available documents were 342,000, then the percentage released is not very impressive. Also, if Bush released the documents, but Trump blocked them, that that's something I'd also need clarification on.
