along with the fact he won't listen and follow instructions.

Probably the reason he doesn't have a true physician.

One of the firms that turned him down: "He doesn't pay and he doesn't listen."

n/t

These firms have already made their reputation. Taking on Twitler wouldn't help them and could definitely hurt them because, as cited, he doesn't follow directions.

What's the use of a high-profile client if he's never going to pay his bills?

Trump is too much of an egotist to ask a law firm up front to take him on as a pro-bono client, but if his past business record is any indication, that's what he'd end up being, after refusing to pay their bills ("so sue me!&quot . I wouldn't take his IOU for a Big Mac, although, from the looks of him these days, SOMEBODY obviously does.

His lawyers will be the same unless they are already low life sleaze balls.

He doesn't listen to his lawyers' advice; says stupid things in public; and doesn't pay - not to mention that any law firm that represents him would probably lose other, more respectable clients and its reputation would take a serious hit.

I can see Trump with a lawyer like "Saul Goodman" - a guy with a lot of bling and no ethics - and no reputation to protect.

to 'defend' their president?

that there was more than one of them in the room with Trump so that there were witnesses to the conversation? So he couldn't later lie about the conversation?

WHY DIDN'T PEOPLE LISTEN TO ALL THE FOLKS--BIOGRAPHERS, CONTRACTORS, FORMER TAX ATTORNEYS, ETC--WHO CAME FORWARD TO WARN US ABOUT WHO THIS GUY IS??

Just because deplorable are enamored with the Grifter Trump family, doesn't mean smart business people are

Should be right up his birther alley!

That's fairly stunning.

Paul Clement was at King & Spaulding and they were defending the Defense of Marriage Act - K&S decided they didn't want to defend it any longer - Paul left there and joined the conservative Bancroft PLLC. Last fall Kirkland acquired the firm and he doesn't have that ability anymore - and probably doesn't want to leave K&E although I figured there was at least a 50/50 chance Clement might do so.

I read that Jones Day was close to this president - the WH counsel McGahn is from there as are other lawyers in the WH.
McGahn is more of a campaign finance lawyer - not really a constitutional lawyer. Don't know if any JD lawyers would step in.

Wonder if Alan Dershowitz would join the team if asked. He seems very "helpful" to Trump on cable news. Like he is angling to be part of the team.
