CNBC ^

Attorney Trusty, appearing on NBC on Friday morning, said Trump is ready for a battle. “He’s a fighter, and he’s going to come out swinging, and he’ll be fine,” Trusty said. “He’s not afraid of this thing.”

Hours later, in a shocking turn of events, Trusty and another attorney on the team, John Rowley, resigned from the case.

Preliminary Analysis:

* It appears on the surface of the indictment, that much information missing:

.....No actual concrete numbers of items in said boxes, both quantity and types.

* The defense would be:

...”reasonable man theory” 1. physical tasking-sorting and 2. sheer myrads of numbers in boxes.. volumes and types of items. 3. Months if not years for a private citizen to organize/sort.

* So let’s have actual quantity.

* Further, the moment Trump left the White House, if plaintiff can prove their case, would qualify under Contributory Negligence, of government officials.

I think Trump began to sense that the lawyers representing him were, in many instances, simply going through weak lawyerly behavior feigning that they were being STRONG in his DEFENSE... they weren't, or the indictment would have NEVER come to FRUITION.

Time to field some NEW and more AGGRESSIVE "DOBERMANS."

Hang on.. Trump KNOWS what he's doing.. after all, it is his A$$ that's on the line!

Quitters never win.

As usual, without knowing anything about what's going on behind the scenes, you spout your mindless garbage.

They aim to completely destroy Trump and everyone he knows and strip him of his rights as an America Citizen. They will treat him like an animal. These are evil, evil people and we are living in perilous times.

Looks and feels to me like the MODERN DAY version of the "Persecution of Jesus Christ 2.0"

That’s to be determined at some point. We all make mistakes
and when we do then consequences are called for.

He's gotten this far without them sinking his ship. I'll TRUST he'll make GOOD SOLID decisions on behalf of himself.

And ALWAYS keep in mind whatever comes out of this.. "EVERYTHING HAPPENS with a GREATER GOOD in MIND"

You kinda sound like you're hoping or expecting things to turn bad for Trump?

Nope just saying if he broke the laws/rules/etc.
then he needs to be punished just like any other
person would be.

I understand that Trump as an entrepreneur had a lot
of freeway in his on personal holdings. But the federal
government is a different matter by far.

Re: 79 - I am plodding through the charging document, but the reading so far suggests your take may be on the mark.

Two top attorneys did not know they were being lied to by a client? Crazy on the face of it. If experienced attorneys do not know a client is lying, they are not qualified to represent anybody. Trump is probably qualified by now to pass the bar in any state not owned by the communist democrat party. An assumption that Trump lied about anything is a prejudicial opinion unwarranted and unsupporeted by the lying Biden administration.

It's best that they maintain they were lied to. If they knew there was classified/national defense information still held by Trump and they then certified there was none remaining followed by FBI finding more during the raid, they could also be prosecuted. One way or the other it's best for them to remove themselves from the storm.

Regarding the material allegedly found by the FBI in Trump's office, bathroom and other locations other than the storeroom, if it was there and not planted by the feds (a possibility), Trump's indeed in a world of hurt.

May be more than just a possibility - I recall one of Trump's attorneys saying she was not allowed entrance to accompany the FBI agents in their search.

That is Christina Bobb. She was on site that day and the feds kicked her out.

Give an example and put some ice on your EPIC Butthurt while Trump deals with crappy lawyers that failed him.

You're right... the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT is COMPLETELY CORRUPT toward YOU if you're NOT in agreement with THEIR agenda.

If you can't see that then you have your head so far up your own rectum you could check yourself for bowel cancer.

Give an example

Peruse your own posts. You cannot follow a debate (argument). Dunning-Kruger comes to mind.

You are a foul mouthed Troll.
