The lawyer wrote in a filing he could “no longer effectively and properly represent” Trump because of “irreconcilable differences.”

So, I kind of wonder what would happen if nobody was willing to defend him because it seems like every lawyer that reps him either gets charged with crimes, or he is like asking them to do illegal shit.
Like at some point he just will get a public defender because it’s a constitutional right to have a lawyer, but what if he can’t even get one of them to rep him because he asks them to lie or break laws for him. How many do you go through before the court is just like, fuck it, you are unrepresentable we gotta move forward with our a lawyer.
My guess is they know he’s gonna lose, and no one wants to be known as that lawyer who defended the ex-president in prison for treason.
Eh, he’s not charged with Treason. And Defence lawyers are usually pretty sanguine about stuff like that anyway.
He’s not charged with treason… YET.
Fair point, but the barrier for Treason is so high that it would be almost impossible anyway.
