I will say this. She is absolutely right about President Trump having the worst legal team ever.
From way back in the day when he had creepy porn lawyer, to his most recent fiascoes with Giuliani, Wood, that Kracken woman and etc.
You'll probably get blasted by some with your statement but your absolutely spot on.
I think a first year law student could have done a better job than the team he hired.
Creepy porn lawyer was never a Trump lawyer. He was the lawyer for the porn star accuser.
You are correct. One of the facts about Pres Trump’s administration is that when it came to picking personnel whether legal, admin, personal staff dept heads, he had many more misses than hits.
Yep. I don’t know how such a really rich guy had such a crap legal team for the most part. I did think his legal team for his first impeachment was pretty good though.
His legal team for the Inquisitor Plenipotentiary Mueller, err, Special Counsel Mueller, investigation did a superb job. Which made the complete Charlie Foxtrot of the election litigation all the more shocking. Orly Taitz would have been hard pressed to produce less in the way of concrete results, and her fee would have been far less.
Well, who was he going to get?
There weren’t many lawyers willing to take the cases for fear of the Left and what they would do.
The President was never intimidated, thank the Lord. One of the things that made him such a badass.
But that’s easy when you’re a billionaire and The President of the United States at the same time.
The rest of those folks have to go on making a living. And I’m sure more than one of them had a visit, woke up with a horse head in their bed or had a dead fish delivered to their doorstep.
The RNC won 7 out of 8 lawsuits brought in the lead up to the election. (That was back in the day when courts heard the cases). Ronna McDaniels did a very good job keeping folks up-to-date on the legal front. One suit made it all the way to the SC where Alito punted (Pennsylvania).
Trump did everything he could do ... from running the country to filling Ginsburg's seat to surviving COVID to holding 2 and 3 rallies a day after his release from the hospital and against the wishes of local democrat leaders. Trump convinced 75+ million people to vote and vote in person to overcome the coming fraud.
Trump also made clarion calls throughout 2020 in public and private to the GOP congressional legislators that mail-in voting would be a disaster. The media, the democrats, the republicans openly laughed at him. Over and over and over again, they laughed at him.
No one anticipated the courts in six states would refuse to hear lawsuits from the state level, the appellate level to the Supreme Court. The Bush election challenge was the model used in preparation for the election. The courts were much more honest then; or they recognized GWB was one of them.
No one predicted that the steepest fraud would occur in Republican run states; and the legislatures in those states would abandon their own voters.
No one quite believed the Republicans in the Congress would congratulate Biden on his win while lawsuits were working their way through the court system. No one could quite believe McCarthy would be the last to support the Texas lawsuit brought before the Supreme Court, after 20 states, members of his own caucus and the President of the United States, the head of his own political party had signed on to the suit.
NO ONE expected the Supreme Court, the court of original jurisdiction for the STATE of Texas, to refuse the lawsuit.
The Republican run Senate held hearings on the fraud with witness after witness testifying under oath and providing concrete evidence of mail-in and electronic voter fraud. State legislators provided evidence of a breach with the Electors Clause of the US Constitution. The outcome: Republicans in the Senate gave their word, their WORD, dammit!, that they'd fix all of this for next time.
No one predicted the loyal, too holy to be believed Vice President would abandon not only his boss, but his own voters. In January, at least two state legislatures FINALLY sent detailed letters to Vice President Pence outlining the fraud in their states and requesting he not certify the election on Jan 6--but send it back to them for review and recertification. Pence said no.
Senator Cruz proposed waiting 14 days to certify the election results pending a full investigation. He was too late and was laughed at, openly.
And the cherry on the parfait is the REPBULICAN Senate leader announcing there would be no objections to the vote certification on January 6 --- even though there was a near free-for-all in 2017. He was wrong. A handful of courageous Republican Senators did stand in opposition, until the whole thing was called off due to the "insurrection" --- which wasn't a riot within a peaceful protest planned by socialist operatives for this very reason. Honest.
It's tough to win when your own political party is against you ... and do not doubt that the GOP was part of it. The establishment GOP wanted Trump gone as badly, if not more, than the Democrat-Socialists and NeverTrump principled conservatives.
The establishment political body knew they'd have to do more than send Trump packing. They had to stop this man -- this man who has the power to light a fire of freedom in and give strength to those pesky voters who could stand in the way of their personal schemes and power hungry goals.
Big Tech banned Trump, the President of the United States, from all social media. (Even Germany was upset by this) And the House, with Republicans this time, impeached him again --- this time as a private citizen. After acquittal, McConnell took to the floor of the Senate and gave an impassioned speech reminding the world that Donald J. Trump could be tried in federal court for his role in the "insurrection".
Then Congress tried to pass a law banning Trump from holding public office at any level, ever again. It failed.
Now NYS, with the Supreme Court's blessing, is busy combing through Donald Trump's life looking for a crime. They will find one. Next up: the indictment.
