‘NO BRAINER’ Trump ‘told to represent HIMSELF at impeachment trial’ in dramatic move after ‘parting ways’ with five top lawyers
The Sun ^ | 1/31/2021 | Laura Gesualdi-Gilmore

Posted on 01/31/2021 11:49:57 AM PST by Kartographer

"If you're Trump this is rather a no brainer," wrote Twitter user Janet Mullins Grisson, in regards to Trump representing himself.

"With Senate Rs aka the jury on the record that impeaching former president is unconstitutional why spend money on lawyers?"

The news of the legal shakeup online has garnered many similar responses, especially with the impeachment trial set to begin the week of February 8.

In 4 years, Pelosi will be retired or “”””. She may as well practice holding a lily on her chest in 3 years.

Trump should walk into the hearing with Leo Terrell. That ought to rattle them.

Apparently mediocrity is not Jenna Ellis - according to comments after the article this is what Byrne said on Telegram - although he wouldn’t say who.

Where is Rudy?

Sorry to inform you but RUDY is part of the problem.

I believe those being told to EXIT Trump's team are doing so because Trump finally realized that between Mark Meadows and Rudy Giuliani they've been on a fast train to nowhere.

This story clearly tells you WHY Trump failed to "Stop the Steal"  

This is heart breaking to read.

Just ignore it and say it’s Unconstitutional. He could really screw things up. He needs to stop. This is now about the future of the Republican Party, not just him. he needs to be smart about it.


There is going to be nothing fair about this. He should let Dershowitz represent him, or maintain he is a private citizen and ignore the partisans.

Any of those are more than you have ever done or ever will do in your lifetime.

Oh, please grow up. People have concerns about Rudy and how he handled the 2020 Election cases and strategy.

And you roll out that lame crap?

I don't know exactly when but I read all the lawyers from the last impeachment have declined including Sekulow and Biondi.

Robert's children are still minors.

The children were adopted in 2000, so they are at least 19. They graduated from High School in 2018. For certain, they are not minors in the legal sense.

“Pretty much guaranteeing a conviction and then bar from office.”

You will not get 17 Republicans to vote to convict on incitement - period.

The 10 that voted to approve the articles on the House side are already on the ropes. Cheney will be gone after this term, along with others.

You are taking the coward’s argument. Please, just make oit go away, so we can what? Be more of a loser party?

I think you are correct. In which case, deporting them is no longer a valid threat. Prosecuting him for an illegal adoption might be possible - don’t know if there is a statute of limitations. It would certainly have suffice to explain some of his decisions (like Obama is qualified, etc) from 2000 to 2018 or so. They must have something on him - it is their style.

Absolutely. And if he is still wanting them to argue the election, then they have really beaten him down. He needs to rise up, no matter how wronged he has been. And he has been. Right now he is the only leader we have, and that’s the truth. If he goes down, without a free and impartial press, I don’t know what will happen.
