      Trump's lawyers weighed in last (and closest to 5p), asserting that they will use an outside e-discovery vendor and outside contract attorneys, as needed, to get the review done "promptly and efficiently." https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4446999-Cohen-v-USA-Trump-Ltr-042518.html …pic.twitter.com/YeHOEgYm7l

          Remarkable to step back and realize the president of the United States has lawyers who are saying they might have to go to an outside vendor to hire "experienced contract attorneys" to help out in litigation like this that is clearly so important to him.

          Looping back around here to say that it’s clear that a lot of smart people disagree with me on this point, noting how it’s normal practice, even in BigLaw. Fair enough, and point taken. (Look at the replies to the prior tweet in the thread for more criticism of my take!)

          That said, I think most presidents — and all of them since I could read — would have a more comprehensive legal team assembled by now, such that you would not see a filing like that we saw today from Trump’s recently hired counsel in the Cohen-related litigation in NY.

          And their “client” will make himself available to assist in the doc review. I envision Trump surrounded by boxes of documents...

          Trump wants to farm it out to the e-Russians.

          So Trump's not too busy/has country to run to assist in his own defence. I'm sure the Judge is grateful for this information which was volunteered by his own bloody lawyers!.
