That’s one of the reasons he’s had so much trouble finding lawyers.

because nobody wanted to work for him. Where did they find 17 lawyers who want to defend Trump? Are they young people right out of the same law school Michael Cohen went to, generally considered to be the worst law school in the U.S., the Thomas M. Cooley Law School? https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2018/05/04/trump-michael-cohen-lawyer-cooley-law-school-218318 Are they so desperate to avoid having to eke out an existence practicing law from the basement of a nail salon in Albuquerque that they'd take a job in the Trump White House, thereby dooming themselves to professional scorn and derision for the rest of their lives?
