Of course the DoJ would appeal.
Judge Cannon's ruling would stall and impede the Federal investigation of Trump.

"The U.S. Dept. of Justice on Thursday filed a notice of appeal against U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon’s ruling allowing Donald Trump the “special master” his legal team requested. The order also halted DOJ from taking any investigative steps in conjunction with the 13,000 items, including more than 100 classified documents federal agents seized during the August 8 search warrant execution of Mar-a-Lago"

"“The Justice Department also argued that a former president cannot assert executive privilege after he leaves office, and that it is not possible for one part of the executive branch to assert privilege to shield documents from another part,” The Washington Post reports, but notes that the “appeals process could take longer than any document review by the special master.”

Every MAGA YouTuber said they would appeal.
They will lose the appeal.

One sided garbage. Rule of law has been abandoned by the new fascists.

Oh, look! Possibly one thing okfine didn't lie about.
 
Most of the legal commentators I heard speak following the ruling said they'd be surprised if it wasn't appealed. What's really unfortunate is how the appeal will be handicapped according to the make-up of the appellate court. I believe Trump has 5 appointees on a 11 member court. Could be wrong about that. Still, Cannon's decision was so egregiously wrong overturning the ruling should be a slam dunk.

I'm 100% sure you watched non-ideological commentators.

Why wouldn't you appeal a ridiculous opinion? Even Bob Barr, who defended Trump vociferously when he was AG, called this ruling ridiculous.

LOCK HIM UP!

"There were also documents marked SAP, for Special-Access Programmes, which are often about US intelligence operations and whose circulation is severely restricted, even among administration officials with top security clearance. Potentially most disturbing of all, there were papers stamped HCS, Humint Control Systems, involving human intelligence gathered from agents in enemy countries, whose lives would be in danger if their identities were compromised."

Former intelligence officials warn Mar-a-Lago has become a ‘magnet for foreign spies’ Former intelligence officials warn Mar-a-Lago has become a 'magnet for foreign spies'

Even by most Trump appointed judges
