    Default Trump is rushing to hire seasoned lawyers — but he keeps hearing ‘No’

    Former president Donald Trump and close aides have spent the eight days since the FBI searched his Florida home rushing to assemble a team of respected defense lawyers. But the answer they keep hearing is “no.”

    The struggle to find expert legal advice puts Trump in a bind as he faces potential criminal exposure from a records dispute with the National Archives that escalated into a federal investigation into possible violations of the Espionage Act and other statutes.

    “Everyone is saying no,” said a prominent Republican lawyer, who like some others spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss confidential conversations.

    I mean, given his propensity of not paying people he uses the services of.... I'd stay away too. Plus his propensity of lying.

    Surprised any lawyer would work for him. The law does not protect a lawyer if involved in criminal activity--which is what Trump wants.

    I don't think a sensible attorney who worked hard for their law license would want to risk destroying their career over a piece of shit tyrant tRump who conspired in the gutter with repukes to engage in a act of insurrection and stealing classified information to destroy democracy and civilization at doing the bidding of foreign enemies and the devil.

    With Trump, it’s best to get the money upfront.

    Trump did this to himself but he’ll never take responsibility for his actions. He’ll blame everyone else because that’s how he rolls.

    My guess it is not really "the money."

    What decent, intelligent person would want his/her name associated with Trump?

    He is a classless heap of scum who taints everything and everyone who comes into his sphere.
    ON HIS WORST DAY, JOE BIDEN IS A BETTER PRESIDENT THAN TRUMP WAS ON HIS BEST DAY!

    Trump is well known for stiffing the lawyers that he hired, so why should they work for him.

    Everything you people quote is from anonymous sources. Lmfao. Someone in your family spoke to me on the condition of anonymity about how much of an idiot you are. I mean I believe the anonymous source, I don't know about anyone else.
