“Given the importance of the trial schedule, the key practical question is whether the court focuses solely on Trump’s case or endorses immunity in other instances. Smith’s gambit is a fallback that would let the court order the trial to proceed even if its opinion extends to broader principles of immunity.”

    That would be some serious abracadabra shit if he pulls this off.

    David Blaine, watch out!

    I wanna know: How the ever living fuck does Trump get the apparently best, dirtiest lawyers that get him out of everything when he’s famous for never paying his lawyers? Wtf?

    Ghouliani is about to not only be homeless, but get strung up and do hard time because if Trump. And he has multiple teams of new lawyers doing horrible things again for him now. HOW??

      They’re working for something better than money. Exposure! Don’t you know working for such a big name will do better things for their career than money! At least, that’s what they tell artists.

      They’re not the best, they are just flinging shit at the wall and the corruption is deep enough that the shit penetrates it and sticks. ‘Like dissolves like’ and all that, but with stickiness. I also seem to remember something about the recent ones have all been paid in advance.
