    Everytime someone describes trump with “best, most, ever” in a positive statement I always assume it’s trump telling them specifically to say that. He has the best words after all.

      And apparently every parent, teacher, family member, judge, etc. she has ever met does not rise to the ethics of Mr Perfect Call Insurrectionist Pussy Grabber

      she can go into, like, immigration law. Know a few immigration lawyers. their clients are amazing. I don’t imagine their bills are as large as the one sent to trump, but it’s not like trump actually pays the bills…

      I’ve got to believe she’s had at least one or two clients who were innocent.

    So, odds on when she leaves the team and starts telling people what a shit-show he really is?

      The second she has a book published and starts doing a promo tour for it, and not one minute before.

        I’m so sick of that shit. These people should be charged with being complicit for hiding crimes.

          Funnily enough, she may end up getting charged for lying on her affidavit that there were no more classified documents at Mar a Lago. She used some legalese AKA weasel words that may protect her, but it remains to be seen. She was, however, already sanctioned for over $1 million dollars, and I wouldn’t be surprised if she was disbarred by the time all is said and done.

    I know, that she is getting paid and all. But damn… Thats just degrading. No amount of money would bring me to tell such a embarrassing lie. Alone the word “most” puts every other of her social interactions into scale. She basically said: “Me, my mom, my husband?, my kids?, my best friend, they are all ethically worse than Trump.” This person seems to have no values.

        Most lawyers, yes, are heartless capitalist fee-gouging sociopaths. But some of us do a lot to help the helpless, to our own detriment. We give everything for the underdog fighting these snakes.

        So, while I don’t take the generalisation personally—because it’s largely true—please never forget the minority of broke empathetic legal practitioners toiling away behind the scenes seeking actual justice for clients.

      Bottom of the barrel. All of his other lawyers have dumped him.

    Trump is really running out of qualified attorneys. This lady only got into law a decade ago and up until now has represented reaility stars in petty civil cases. This is who Trump has representing him over any of his current indictments? That’s wild!

    He turned them over, he cooperated as he always does.

    Yup, that’s totally a lie …

    45 has a real penchant for surrounding himself with people who say things he wishes were true rather than the actual truth. I doubt he knows (or cares) there’s a difference.

    Hopefully that’s a good thing in the sense that his legal team is so incompetent and out of touch with reality, they will get steamrolled (just as all his election fraud nonsense did).
