On Tuesday, a Florida judge informed two lawyers representing former President Donald Trump, neither of them licensed in the state, that they had bungled routine paperwork to take part in a suit filed after the FBI’s search this month of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home and private club.
Trump has projected his usual bravado, and raised millions of dollars online from outraged supporters, since federal agents descended on the property more than two weeks ago and carted off box loads of material including highly classified documents. But something is different this time — and the errant court filing offered a glimpse into the confusion and uncertainty the investigation has exposed inside Trump’s camp.
The documents investigation represents the greatest legal threat Trump has faced in years, and he is going into the battle shorn of the protective infrastructure and constitutional armor of the presidency. After years of burning through lawyers, he has struggled to hire new ones, and has a small group of lawyers of varying experience.
He is facing a Justice Department he no longer controls, run by a by-the-book attorney general, Merrick Garland, who has pursued various investigations into Trump methodically and quietly.
Trump is serving as his own communications director and strategic adviser, seeking tactical political and in-the-moment public relations victories, sometimes at the risk of stumbling into substantive legal missteps.
One example came late Monday, when a conservative writer allied with Trump made public a letter that the National Archives had sent to Trump’s legal team in May. Spun by Trump and his allies as evidence that President Joe Biden had played a role in the case after saying he was not involved, the letter confirmed information damaging to the former president’s case.

I highly doubt it. President in Exile Trump is usually 3-4 steps ahead of you dolts. ;)
Oh for Pete's sake, NYT.
🐂💩
“Get Trump” is still operative, as it has been since June 2015.
They really will not tolerate us electing anyone who would stop the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA)
Looking back fondly, eh HabermanIdiot?

yep and he never controlled the DOJ. They actively worked against him
The Slimes is panting
NYT via Yahoo. Sort of like excrement floating in a cesspool.
Law firms are forbidding their lawyers from representing Trump.
Why isn’t THAT your story NYSlimes?
Dimocrats, without Trump to blame, struggle for more ways to blame him. Fixed it.
Do any of you ever wonder about what their conversations are like when they think they finally got him, he proves them wrong, demonstrates their corruption and collusion and then hops into his golf cart to tee one up.
It has to be very frustrating for them.
We got him. Start popping bottles……Uhhh no we don’t.
By the time 2024 rolls around our country will be in such dire straits we either won’t have any more Presidential elections or Trump will win by a landslide.
We have a perfect storm brewing and Biden is throwing gas on the fire.
Sorry, I do not have a parakeet.
And yet most still elect the operatives of the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA), with the likes of Graham, Thune and all the other POSs you listed the other day.
Maggie Haberman. Hahahahahahaha.
Maggie Haberman ... pffft!!
Protections? What protections did he have when he was president?
The times ought to be careful. People might think they mean protections from an unlawful White House
Trump is not struggling for strategy and they know it. He is populating the pol world with maga. Doing a good job too
Got rid of Cheney and the bushes. The mccains are done
Got rid of pretend constitutional abortion. That’s annulled nevvver to return
Amassed many millions in donations plus the 1.6 bil vote of confidence from the federalist. Enjoys massive populist support
What?
I can never keep it straight - is NY Times the FBI mouthpiece? Or is that the Washington Post?
IMHO, President Trump is the George Patton/Winston Churchill of our time!
He is so far ahead of the LIEberals, they won’t know what happened to them!
