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.

Defense documents are core to the charges but this yet again just goes to show that Trump was not just in violation of one law, it was numerous laws.
Sorry Trump loyalists, but this is not at all a good look.

LAWFARE: Major law firms are requiring lawyers to give up their partnerships if they want to represent the former president fearing backlash from Democrats. Trump is scrambling to find a FL lawyer willing to join his defense team.

Trump traitors are all about excuses, aren't they.


Excuses and deliberate point missing. They’ve fought many straw men of their own creation on this thread, all while missing the fundamental point: Donald Trump is a criminal who put our nation at risk, and his party is as bad. They all knew what he was up to in different avenues (if Donald Trump were truly being prosecuted for all the crimes he commit in office, they’d never get done by the time he died) and they still looked the other way.

This isn't a witch hunt. Each of these actions, rape, fomenting insurrection, retaining sensitive government documents and obstructing their return, interfering with the Georgia election, are things that happened, and with each one, Trump was at the center of it.

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.
