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.

That doesn't discourage some of them, especially in high-profile cases like this. Hans Littens and Robert Servatiuses exist everywhere.
