South Carolina lawyers Butch Bowers and Deborah Barbier and former federal prosecutors Greg Harris, Johnny Gasser and Josh Howard had left the defense team by Saturday, a source said, calling it a mutual decision.

The source said the lawyers left over a difference of opinion on the direction of the defense’s argument.

Another anonymous source told the Associated Press Bowers and Barbier left because Trump wanted them to make election fraud allegations during the trial.

Dershowitz was suppose to be part of the team but then announced he wouldn’t be.

I think lawyers just don’t want to take this in the direction Trump wants to take it...and then there is the huge problem of losing clients for taking the case on.

Lindsey Graham walked those lawyers to Trump.

Those two hired the other three, and they leaked and quit.

Durham’s Never Trumper girlfriend quit after running out the clock on the Investigation.

It was another Lindsey Graham plan, ala Bob Woodward in the White House.
