Everyone in the US is entitled to legal representation but the old caveat of being careful what you pay for comes to mind when reading about Trump's current legal situation including the filings to the courts sent by his current attorneys. Trump's ace legal team has filed suits in two different courts including one that they apparently did not quite understand. A Trump appointed judge in one of the courts has responded to a court filing by giving Trump's crack (or is that cracked) advisors a second chance since they apparently filed in a civil court for a criminal case. Add to that the language in the various new filings and what ensues is just deserts.
“[That] makes no sense under law, because if it is, in fact, subject to executive privilege, that means it’s a government document, and hence, should be held by the government in the Archives. So that’s why it’s a very, very bad legal argument with no validity to it,” he said.
“The motion is a confession to having material you should not have in your house.”
Are we sympathetic yet? I am sympathetic to the people who have to wade through garbage to find any nugget of sound legal reasoning. I don't know if the plan is to argue incompetent counsel.
