I feel like someone who has the necessary experience and clearance isn’t going to want to throw that away on case which they will lose and likely be asked to put that clearance at risk by their client within the first 5 minutes.
several attorneys declined to take him as a client.
and
Trump has also seemingly been unable to find a specialist national security lawyer, eligible to possess a security clearance
good luck clearing those charges without experts.
He will likely cry mistrial
I think that is an actual threat if he can’t find an expert. The judge might assign someone if he can’t find one himself just to avoid that.
Can you envision being on that candidate list for random selection? It’s a form of career ending Russian roulette or watching the Vietnam draft on TV. People know if you’re drafted it’s not your fault, but being thrown into an impossible situation where just being involved might put you in jail like many of the lawyers who came before you into that role …
Having your number come up would be really tough.
I think there’s a huge personal risk to the lawyers too.
If Trump doesn’t like how this lawyer is representing him, he can sic his angry mob on the lawyer.
where just being involved might put you in jail like many of the lawyers who came before you
Just to clarify, his previous lawyers went to jail for lying to courts on behalf of Trump or providing Trump with advice on how to get away with crimes. Defending Trump doesn’t automatically get you in trouble.
Lmao can you imagine that man defending himself in court?!
