Nope. This guy’s literally like “any other defendant with these facts should do a quick plea bargain but because he was president..


How is it an "institutional norm?" How many former Presidents ran for office under such a massive and ongoing legal cloud?

Yoo is full of crap.


The institutional norms were that presidents were not by and large habitual criminals.
Nixon resigned, spending his last night in office praying with Billy Graham I believe. He kept quiet for a very long time afterward.
Clinton was impeached just once
Harding died before he could be implicated in the scandals within his administration
Johnson (Andrew) was impeached just once
U.S. Grant was never directly implicated in corruption involving his administration
Reagan was a potential target with Iran-Contra, but Ollie got all the attention and Reagan was diagnosed with Alzheimers (and likely already affected by it while President) not long after

Trump has always been about "getting away with it" because he's a "star"


And none of them - Nixon, Clinton, Harding, etc came back to run again saying "hey you can't prosecute because I used to be President!" Not a one.

Sorry, Yoo. It is not an institutional norm. The right needs to stop fabricating utter bullshit to defend Trump.


“If you drop out of the race, Mr.Trump, things will go much better for you”


Nobody has said that. In fact, most pundits agree that the best way out for Trump is to become president and make these charges go away.

FL is a red state and every major law firm services GOP politicians as well as conservative causes. Backlash from Democrats isn't a concern in FL.

It was obvious before he was ever elected that this would be the result. Anyone with intelligence could see it. He told us who he was a long long time ago. Now the chickens are coming home to roost. Finally.

Yep. Far too late for this kind of deal. The perception would not be favorable. He should have left office quietly and retired. FAFO indeed. He’s stuck, and we’re stuck with him.

According to the paper, the team is split on whether their defense is to declare this a political witch hunt, or to focus on getting one MAGA juror.


He can always use the federal public defender's office.


There aren't too many public defenders who can be read in on the classified information, so no, not really.


Federal public defenders are fed employees and most likely have someone cleared to defend terrorism suspects. Now if Trump fires the public defender and has to rely on the court appointed private bar, well.....

No one is saying that. The fact is that if Mr. Trump didn’t commit crimes and stopped committing crimes, things would go much better for him.

A number of the incompetent lawyers on his team are barred in SDFL, including the insurance lawyer Lindsey Halligan. Not sure how this story even got going.

Just say you know nothing about federal public defenders, that would be quicker.

Is the Judge going to let a lawyer paid by Trump’s PAC to represent Walt Nuata? Nuata could easily get a plea deal but his lawyer is there to represent Trump’s interests.

Yes, Comey knows you have to prove intent to convict at a trial. Why don’t you?

JFC, can you imagine if this was Biden or Hillary?


It’s bullshit. He can’t get a good lawyer because he is a terrible client who won’t STFU or stop committing crimes

He doesn't pay AND he ends up making the lawyers get lawyers because he inevitably asks them to do something illegal. Not only that the arguments he demands his lawyers make are embarssing.

No partnership would want anything to do with someone that costs them money, creates reputational harm, and exposes them to criminal liability. It's a lose lose lose situation.

Exactly. And more to the point, he keeps dragging his lawyers into his crimes. No big law firm (or small one) wants to deal with a client trying to use them to commit crimes.
