To hear the Mango Mussolini tell it, Donald Trump is up to his cellulite in top legal talent just waiting to sink their fangs into failing Robert Mueller and his team of crack second rate prosecutors. It's all he can do to hold Team Trump back.
So, senior counsel John Dowd is gone, resigned, so what? He's always got "Joey Short Pants" diGenova on loan from FOX News, right? Wrong? He's got a case of the conflicts? Oh, dear.
Besides, Trump still has his remaining lawyer, Jay Sekulow, at his side who sounds like Trump's kind of grifter.
“Don’t believe the Fake News narrative that it is hard to find a lawyer who wants to take this on,” the president cautioned. “Fame & fortune will NEVER be turned down by a lawyer, though some are conflicted.”
He added: “Problem is that a new ... lawyer or law firm will take months to get up to speed (if for no other reason than they can bill more), which is unfair to our great country – and I am very happy with my existing team.”
The truly talented lawyers have ample evidence of the kind of client they would be defending. And, really, who would want the job?
