“Any lawyer who takes a TRUMP CASE is either ‘CRAZY,’ or a TRUE AMERICAN PATRIOT,” Trump wrote

Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday announced on social media he’s searching for a new law firm to represent him in an appeal against last week’s jury verdict awarding $83.3 million to writer E. Jean Carroll.

He left a message to prospective hires in the Truth Social post, writing: “Any lawyer who takes a TRUMP CASE is either ‘CRAZY,’ or a TRUE AMERICAN PATRIOT.” The former president’s announcement follows his vow to appeal the jury’s decision last Friday, predicated by the presiding federal judge’s September ruling finding him liable for defamation.

    Calling something a “Trump case” should become an informal description among lawyers for a hopeless defense of an idiot loudmouth client.

      Funny how “Trump card”, having been a been used as something that is a sure absolute win, will turn into the exact opposite. I see people saying it throughout media of the last 30 years. Kids that watch that old stuff in the future will have no fucking idea why they would say that.

        Trump Card is going to end up being all the incriminating evidence you left behind.

            Why is this the second Monical Lewinsky joke I’ve seen on Lemmy today? Did I fall into a time warp?
