I mean, the indictment clearly shows proof that Trump will jeopardize a lawyer’s freedom by asking them to do something highly illegal. And that he’s unwilling to comply with common sense approach to the law. At this point no firm with any prestige would want to touch this. And it’s all self inflicted.
Federal public defenders are world class so he's going to get a fair trial regardless.
