Hank knows better and is trying to come up with some plausible contrarian reason
Honestly, you are probably the poster best-suited to answer that question.
We have been told that Trump has a copy of the (partial) warrant. How? I am guessing it was left with Mar-a-Lago staff, who clearly WERE in possession of the premises ... rather than with a random lawyer who could not prove any connection to Trump.
But that is just an educated guess. I am hoping you can help me elevate it to a reasonable inference.

Hank is a pedo groomer who supports kids dancing in drag shows so there’s that too

I think Hank is operating as a contrarian and using his knowledge to be as contrarian as he can.
He isn’t a contrarian. He has no convictions at all.

He knows this is messed up.

I have never. Ever. Seen a law enforcement officer not believe someone purporting to be an attorney disbelieve it. If they did. It’s easily verifiable. If that was what happened, his attorney would have said that in her interview.

ehhhhhhh
I'm pro Trump here but his resume of legal counsel is pretty damn dire

I'd like to know more about it just like everyone else. I'm positive we'll learn more about it.
I don't know this. I know what Eric Trump said to the media but I don't know what is in the affidavit.

No he isn’t. I go after Hank as much as anyone here. He will think of any plausible reason to justify a contrarian position. But he isn’t a pedo.

Are you really this slow?
You are a cop, and you are in the process of executing a search warrant. Random person you have never met walks up to you, hands you a business card and asserts that she is counsel for the property owner. She has no documentation to prove that this is true, and no one can reach the property owner to confirm.
Are you required to cooperate with her?
This is a simple question, and it is not remotely political. If you don't know the answer, just don't bother responding.
How long do you think this operation was planned and how much communication and intel went into this?
Merrick Garland, Wray, and likely hundreds of agents were involved with this. They met with Trump's people a few months ago to discuss the status of the items they were looking for and I have no doubt Trump had his lawyers there, all of which almost certainly gave their information to the FBI. There's absolutely no way that any of Trump's legal council that showed up were unknown to the FBI. They could have played dumb and pretended they didn't know, but the chances of that being true are hovering around the sub 1% range. But, then again, there's nothing these people do that you won't 100% justify because you're a statist tool.

There is no way that that would make sense.
Instead, the FSB simply had no idea at all as to whose home they were raiding.

Merely a few years ago I assume this would have resulted in a complete FBI pause while at minimum a SAC (if not someone much higher at FBI or DOJ) coordinated with Trump's people to have counsel present.
We can debate whether that sort of deference is sensible, but I don't think there is any debate that the environment has shifted starkly to get to the point where it transpired as it did.

There is no shame in saying “this was not done correctly”. It’s what I hoped you would have said about the Woods procedures.

Hank. Dude. You are twisting yourself into knots trying to make this ok. Res Ipsa my man.

Everything I'm reading now is saying that Trump and his team don't even have a copy of the warrant because they were not allowed to keep it. Nor were his lawyers allowed to be present in the room during the raid.
It was redacted and therefore wasn’t informative.

No it’s not, you stupid son of a bitch. But thanks for playing pretend lawyer today. That was fun.
