      Being terrible at their job isn’t grounds for mistrial. People are entitled to a defense, not a good defense.

      But they probably don’t know that, since they’re terrible lawyers.

      Too late for that. The Trump organization has already been found liable. This is the damages phase. They’re doing everything they can to say “okay, it was fraud, but not that much fraud” at this point and the Trump family are all trying to claim they had no idea what happened in their own company.

        They’re filing for a mistrial, anyway. Which is probably their best move at this point. It probably won’t work, but it’s their best move.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if they tried to do that repeatedly until they scored a bribable judge.
