      Many lawyers and top law firms want to represent me in the Russia case...don’t believe the Fake News narrative that it is hard to find a lawyer who wants to take this on. Fame & fortune will NEVER be turned down by a lawyer, though some are conflicted. Problem is that a new......

      The real problem is that this all started with Cobb musing about leaving. That is still a very real possibility. In fact, odds likely are way up now. Then he's got Sekulow, and, well.......

      Yup. Fucked. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy, but still, he needs lawyers. It's just not sporting at this point.

          Everyone deserves legal representation, but i don’t see how you zealously represent Trump’s interests and come out with your bar license intact. He’s unlawyerable.

          Spell check tells me it is not a real word, but they are not always right, especially with legal terms. So, yes, make it so!

          I am actually curious: is there any literature about #unlawyerable clients? I imagine there may have been some defendants like this before, but I suspect many were indigent and/or mentally incompetent. (Trump definitely isn't the former, less sure about the latter...)

          Not that I know of. But anyway halfway decent lawyer never admits this, they just separate themselves. Or never sign on to start with.

          As @PamelaBrownCNN @GloriaBorger reported, the casting call w president Thurs didn’t go as hoped. “The President is disappointed that conflicts prevent Joe diGenova and Victoria Toensing from joining the President's Special Counsel legal team.“-Jay Sekulow

          Those who know law firms know what absolute BS this is Many firms care little re possible guilt/innocence of potential clients They look at 2 things Ability to pay Potential PR +/- to firm It's astounding so many firms have said no to defending a @POTUS Can't exaggerate it
