But even as we’ve watched Trump churn through some of the most inept legal representation imaginable over the years, it appears his legal team has now hit rock bottom. After it became public knowledge on Thursday that the Feds were looking for stolen classified nuclear secrets in Trump’s home, one of Trump’s attorneys appeared on an obscure news channel and claimed that she hadn’t yet asked Trump whether or not he’d been keeping nuclear weapons documents in his home. Hmm. Wouldn’t that be the first thing an attorney would ask her client? Then, after the unsealed warrant revealed on Friday that the DOJ was criminally investigating Trump for espionage , one of his attorneys publicly stated that her advice to Donald Trump is to announce that he’s not going to run for President in 2024, because in such case all of these criminal investigations would magically go away. No really, she said this. Publicly. It probably would be a good idea for Trump to announce that he’s not running in 2024, for a number of reasons. But such an announcement certainly wouldn’t make an espionage investigation go away. The DOJ isn’t going to say to itself, “Well, Trump isn’t running for office, so there’s no need for us to prosecute him over these here nuclear secrets that he stole and hid in his closet.” This is just laugh out loud bad advice coming from Trump’s lawyer. Perhaps this isn’t really what she’s telling Trump behind the scenes, and she’s just saying this publicly because she thinks it’ll help frame the DOJ probe as partisan. But it won’t. Once the public knows you’re being criminally investigated for espionage involving the theft of nuclear secrets, you’re not convincing anyone that it’s just a partisan dust up. WolfTracker Trump is majorly screwing himself and his lawyers are just letting him do it. If Trump was smart he could say he didn't know the documents were still on the premises and someone on his staff must have not returned them and he was not aware they were classified as he never touched them after leaving the white house. That would be a plausible defense that could protect him from being indicted. Instead, Trump is out saying he declassified these records proving he was aware these were classified documents and that he told the FBI they could get them any time proving he knew they were on his property. None of the laws stated in the warrant depend on those documents being classified. Trump basically admitted personal guilt of the crimes stated in the warrant and note that the warrant did not accuse Trump of these crimes personally. Now the question is why is Trump's lawyers not advising him to shut the F up and letting him convict himself publicly? My bet is Trump is not listening to them at all or he has made them angry enough they are letting him hang himself and feeding him to Garland. sadstateofaffairs I imagine being a lawyer representing trumples is a lot like attempting to control the flow of lava from a volcano. The lava goes where it wants to go and any attempt at stopping or redirecting that flow just isn't possible.Trumples knows better & is smarter than everyone i.g. generals, medical science, climate science, lawyers, etc. Great leaders surround themselves with people whom are smarter and or have strengths you do not possess. Obviously this is not possible in Trumples mind because he is in his own mind the king of all things...
