The reference to "knowledge or reckless disregard" is Trump's one nod to standard defamation law: an oblique acknowledgement that as a public figure (which Trump undoubtedly is), Trump would only be entitled to wage a lawsuit against a defendant that acted with "actual malice."

I'm a little surprised that the judge hasn't dismissed it yet.

About the discovery request, they are not just asking for the Mueller Report but just about everything one could think of. This will be interesting to watch.
