Wonder how much a pay-per-view Bumfight of some bum beating the teeth out of Laurence Tribe’s lie-hole would haul in?

Even smart people sometimes do stupid things.

Unethical and idiotic Harvard Law prof..... well the douche taught Obama so who would expect any better from Tribe????

It is amazing that Tribe is supposed to be considered a renowned law professor and legal consultant, when he is so obviously stupid and recklessly biased.

Apparently Tribe needs to be reminded of the definition of confidentiality, but who cares if Trump did seek legal advice? Sounds more like a me, me, me tweet.

If Trump paid for the advice, then privilege was breached. Otherwise, you get what you pay for.

The reason libs have their panties in a knot is not confidentiality.

The problem is being friendly with Trump.

In the age of lawlessness... Tribe sees no issue. Everyone does what they want and it is lawful... unless you are a conservative.

I first heard Tribe’s name in connection with his warning to other liberals that the Second Amendment actually means what it says. Liberals were not happy to hear that.

** If Trump paid for the advice, then privilege was breached. Otherwise, you get what you pay for. **

Untrue. Model Rules for ethical behavior, and confidentiality
are not based on the occurrence of a monetary transaction.

IMHO, he let his rabid support for Hillary override any moral or ethical standards, and hoped his comment might impugn Trump, or cast some aspersions upon him.

Or maybe Tribe is getting senile dementia, and needs to be put out to pasture.

Tribe is a long time liberal. Going all in for Hillary shows desperation of a pretty high caliber.

Not a lawyer, but this seems like a serious breech of ethics.

Doesn’t matter. Liberal professors can do no wrong.

Just because some lib lawyer is “well-known”, that’s no indication of whether he’s competent, or not. It’s obvious from this article, he’s not.

Probably wants a public fight with Trump. I now suspect everything as a lure to draw him off point.

MEDIA: “Mr. Trump....were you asking for advice about an alleged donation to Satan?”

I don’t know about lawyers but for doctors money changing hands has nothing to do with it.

Lawyers have "ethics?"

Really?

In the near future, the term Harvard Law may prove to be a prime example of the term Oxymoron.
