One of the perks certainly would be that he has security clearance unlike the rest of the team

Can Trump still complain about “Dems” on Mueller team if he hires flood? He prob still will

You take his phone. I want a million in cash up front.

And a Hefty retainer!

@MalcolmNance I can't understand why a well respected attorney like Flood would want his name associated with Trump at all

Do you know how this works? You get famous by being near Trump and, in exchange, you trade away your right to conduct yourself in a moral, ethical, or even professional manner. Then, after Pres Trump inevitably fires you, you write a tell-all book and make a few million.

Be sure to include getting paid.

Flood should also demand a fully paid retainer. Even if (not much of a ? here, amirite) client is a deadbeat it's considered bad form to sue.

The least they could have done is replace Ty Cobb with Curt Flood.

Long list?? How about Number One, tell me the Truth! (That should shorten this relationship. snark)

Only way: #EmmetFlood @realDonaldTrump 1) $2 Bil Retainer, 2) Ixnay on the ItterTway, and 3) Shut Yap.

This one more guy trying to get back into the spotlight into a major case. No other reason to get into it because you know you're going to lose

Next thing happing after that is yet another meeting with Tim Cook, who brings a new one.
