It's a shame that only half of everyday Americans gets this.

[saraxdouglas]

The reason he can't find good attorneys is that it's impossible to defend the indefensible. ❤️☮️🙏🇺🇸

[kimcoates]

No attorney who cares about the license they worked so hard to obtain, would go anywhere near DJT. It's career suicide to have a client who expects you to fall on your sword for him & not be paid for it.

[larindanomikos]

Give them public defenders like most Americans have to do.

[wooster]

Why would you need top lawyers when you get to choose your own judges, up to the SCOTUS ?

[lexslate]

There are three main ways to make a lawyer want to stop working for you:
1. Failing to pay them.
2. Refusing to listen to them
3. Asking them to do illegal things.
Agent Orange has a track record of all three, no wonder he's having trouble.

[acool]

Top notch lawyers by virtue of the fact that their “top notch” are by default not stupid enough to take Donald Trump on as a client.
Desperate lawyers or lawyers looking for their 15 minutes of fame will think otherwise and be willing to gamble and take the unwarranted and foolish risk.

[Frenzy]

WHO would want to defend someone who is so guilty that in doing so ruins your career forever?

[princesstiarra]

Lawyers should be scared he's a criminal and he will take anyone down stupid enough to have contact with him.

[zachriley]

The Federalist Society has several qualified lawyers who can provide 45 with legal counsel because he is their Republican Party's leader. Why NOT EVEN 1 willing to volunteer to represent Trump 🤔❓❓

[TECHN]

TraitorTrump is going to go thru some things

[dronetek]

And yet he still finds people who are willing to defend And every time at least one of them end up getting charged with something too. Lawyers should band together and refuse to give him counsel

[Matuse]

Rocket science, this is not: 1) He's super guilty. 2) He goes out of his way to sabotage his own lawyers. 3) He doesn't pay people.

[brianjennings]

"..real Lawyers won't work for me,
that's why I have to use Rudy." - said Prez DonTrump..remember?

[PatricioDeLaRosa]

Old, Fat, Orange, Man, Prison: The Movie - Based On A True Story 🤣

[johnstirling]

Ted Cruz is a lawyer, Josh Hawley, Mitch McConnell and Lindsay Graham also, don't see them leaping to be "Donnie's" legal reps.

[amandaoutlaw]

"Believe me! Nobody hires the best lawyers in the country like I have."

the con

[billbarrett]

Competent lawyers aren't willing to surrender or imperil their career to defend an unrepentant criminal whose criminality is ongoing and top-notch lawyers actually expect to be paid for their services.

[behramcooper]

So long as there are judges like Cannon, Trump does not need top-notch lawyers.

In memory of an absolute classic American movie 'I'm melting, I'm melting'
