What a clown show. The article lays in out pretty well... it turns out not paying or listening to his lawyers is one problem. The other? One of his former attorneys is now a central witness in the case due to Trump having him lie to the FBI. No one wants any part of this mess.

Trump and his legal team spent the afternoon before his arraignment interviewing potential lawyers but the interviews did not result in any joining the team in time for Trump’s initial court appearance scheduled for 3pm ET on Tuesday after several attorneys declined to take him as a client.

Haha, what a mickey mouse operation that idiot runs. Trying to pick up another attorney the freaking day before his arraignment.

I hope he doesn't use this to try and delay

Turns out lawyers don't like clients who won't ever pay them

[-] TechyDad@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Also lawyers don't like clients who lie to them and trick them into helping with criminal acts. The legal profession tends to frown upon such things.

He should totally represent himself. You know the old saying "The man who represents himself is a bigly brained genius and definitely doesn't have a fool for a client!"

It's no surprise that anyone with enough intelligence to have the clearance to handle this case wouldn't want anything to do with it. The writing is on the wall (and in the ballroom, in the bathroom, in the poolhouse...)
