The lawyer wrote in a filing he could “no longer effectively and properly represent” Trump because of “irreconcilable differences.”

Why would anyone want to be his lawyer at this point? The cases against him have overwhelming evidence. You can’t even do it for the money cuz Trump will probably not pay you. I guess the only lawyers who would do it just want their 15 minutes of fame and the right-wing lunatics as your future client pool.
They can charge up front,
“There’s an old adage in business, mister Trump: money talks, bullshit walks.”
Having a law degree doesnt mean your smart.
“I could have won the case for Mister Trump, but he just wouldn’t do as I told him. I had a plan, a brilliant plan, a wonderful plan, the best plan in the history of American law, that had a hundred percent chance of getting him off, but he wouldn’t follow it. He’s getting old and senile, not as much as Biden, not half as much as Biden, but bad enough. It is for this reason why I’ll run in the Republican primaries.”
So, I kind of wonder what would happen if nobody was willing to defend him because it seems like every lawyer that reps him either gets charged with crimes, or he is like asking them to do illegal shit.
Like at some point he just will get a public defender because it’s a constitutional right to have a lawyer, but what if he can’t even get one of them to rep him because he asks them to lie or break laws for him. How many do you go through before the court is just like, fuck it, you are unrepresentable we gotta move forward with our a lawyer.
At some point they would probably let him defend himself, but that would be a massive shitshow
The problem is if he wants a lawyer,m… he’s entitled to one. Chatted with a public defender about it during the last bout of documents lawyers getting arrested…
Basically, barring trump directly threatening the lawyer or harassing the lawyer, the court appointed fellow will “do his best”, and also refer any “he asked me to break the law again” to the court.
That said there’s probably enough ambulance chasers that think he’ll pay up front, and they can hit it up like a get rich quick scheme,
I understand both Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama have backgrounds in constitutional law
My guess is they know he’s gonna lose, and no one wants to be known as that lawyer who defended the ex-president in prison for treason.
Eh, he’s not charged with Treason. And Defence lawyers are usually pretty sanguine about stuff like that anyway.
He’s not charged with treason… YET.
Fair point, but the barrier for Treason is so high that it would be almost impossible anyway.
A lawyer can just ignore those requests from him. At that point, he could fire them but he’s going to have to justify it with the judge. Eventually the judge will stop letting him fire lawyers just to get on with the case.
maybe give him 60 days to get a lawyer, or one will be appointed to him; if he finds one who later quits, it will be back to a court-appointed one, be he/she the original court-appointed one, or a new one with 72 hours to prepare, 3 hours if this occurs more than 10x.
Trump is rich AND doesn’t pay people. There are lots of accounts of people who didn’t get paid by Trump.
I had a Trump supporter friend tell me that it was good business to not pay and file for bankruptcy. I asked her if she did work for Trump would it be good business to not pay YOU and file for bankruptcy. At this point she didn’t want to talk about politics anymore.
The next time she complains about getting stiffed, or even a reduction of pay, tell her that it’s good for business.
What is it about trump people that they talk about trump policies but as soon as you point out how shitty those policies are they suddenly “don’t want to talk about politics anymore”
Years from now, down on there luck lawyers will take a week on the job to pay rent.
Why? He doesn’t pay his bills.
most who’d rather work a week as a paralegal than waste time defending Trump.
I just came here to LOL
Mr Trusty sounds like a lawyer from the Simpsons.
He’s big money, and greased palms, but he got caught in the gears of the system that created him.
“Just give me money.”
Like Jeremiah the Bullfrog, Trump is incapable of understanding a single word they say. At least the ones that are about not doing what he wants, whenever he wants.
rip bozo.
