re: #34 Dr Lizardo

Heh - Trump being forced to resort to a public defender, like one of the unwashed masses, is supreme irony.

No credible attorney would want Trump as a client. He’d refuse to listen to counsel and of course, he’d stiff them to boot. Even the fictional Saul Goodman would decline representing Trump.

IANAL But Trump isn’t entitled to a public defender because he can afford an attorney. There are plenty of lawyers out there who would jump at this opportunity; they are just not experienced or knowledgeable in this area of the law.
