Don't you think? I mean, some of Trump's lawyers are pretty good. They had to know their arguments were ridiculously weak.

I've read that some of his lawyers have resigned from their cases. Additionally, some of his attorneys have serious concerns about making arguments that our elections are deficient, challenging our Constitution. Further, some law firms have women partners who really don't like the idea of representing an alleged serial sexual predator.

Of course, when you say that these are your lawyers, you shouldn't expect professional representation:

Michael "Sez who?" Cohen
Rudolph "The Red-nosed Rummy" Giuliani
Jay "I'm a radio host!" Sekulow

Actually, a thought that just occurred to me is perhaps Trump has a weird strategy of having two tiers of lawyers. The first are the TV personalities who spout Trump's lies of the moment. The second are the real lawyers who represent him in actual legal proceedings.

Eh, who knows?
