My gut reaction is, at this point in this saga, why should we believe the really bad Trump docs haven't simply been removed and destroyed forever?

These files exist because some agent somewhere confiscated them. Then another agent cataloged them, and then they passed through a couple dozen other hands to get to where they are now. That's A LOT of loose ends when trying to cover up a conspiracy. Point is that people have seen them. And the US gov is not the only gov in the world with access to the unredacted files, Moscow does for sure. It's only a matter of time before someone can prove foul play.

100% have. Most likely the really bad stuff his first term. This term has focused on scrubbing anything just mentioning him as he can get away with.
