Their training is the antithesis of what we need as governors of the country.
They are taught to win the case, no matter if the case their representing is right, wrong, good, evil...

You and I are on the exact same page my FRiend.
Lawyers are bound by their oath as an advocate for their client to represent them to the full extent of the LAW of the state they practice in. However, they are not supposed to break the law, conceal evidence, or knowingly commit acts that could convict their client. All people accused of a crime, no matter how heinous, are still innocent until PROVEN guilty by the district attorney.
That is why some of the best mayors(like Rudy)start out as district attorneys. Defense attorneys, many times, compromise themselves in the pursuit of getting their client off. It becomes all about the money they can make defending guilty criminals.
If you remember during the OJ trial, Robert Shapiro took a back seat in the defense to F. Lee Bailey, Johnny Cochran and others. The rumor was that Shapiro originally thought OJ was not guilty. He discovered eventually that he was guilty as sin and no longer wanted to defend him. He actually had scruples. So, he just sat there for the rest of the trial and kept his mouth shut but did not aid in his defense. The other rumor was Kardashian(his personal attorney)picked up OJ from the airport after returning form Chicago. It was rumored that the knife was in OJ’s golf bag and Kardashian disposed of the murder weapon.
Yes, but I don’t think they are trained to just make up accusations about a victim that have no basis in truth, or get a “forensic analyst” who agrees to testify to anything you want. When Clinton found that prosecutors had lost a swatch of the fabric of the girl’s underwear which had the defendant’s blood on it, she took the rest of the underwear and took it some “expert” who agreed to say whatever Hillary wanted him to say.
Both of those things should have gotten Hillary disbarred.
This wasn’t just Hillary doing her best to defend somebody appointed to her. This was Hillary breaking the law and ethics in 2 different ways, and so figuratively raping a 12-yr-old virgin girl who had been in a coma because of the viciousness of the attack against her. And then priding herself on her conduct, boasting on tape.
I guess it was good practice for Benghazi...
