Donald Trump is looking for a new lawyer. And you might think "wow, came to his senses about Habba?"

Don't think that's what it is. Habba tried to accuse the Judge of not disclosing a "mentor relationship" w/ the prosecutor. Very irregular and she quickly withdrew it to avoid being referred to the bar, probably.

The filing is based on a NY Post article and was probably Trump's idea.

He's not looking for a better lawyer. He wants one who is even worse!

I hope he represents himself.

I just figured good lawyers avoid him like the plague

@futurebird Habba was truly horrible and close to being jailed by Judge Kaplan.

But it is normal for defendents to use different lawyers for appeals.

But you have me thinking that Trump might be going for worse lawyers. People who are like him.

@futurebird that would make sense, since no one knows more than he does about anything, right? Although strangely he is always surrounded by lawyers... Dumb lawyers, but still lawyers

Lawyers are useless if you don't listen to them.

Since he finds himself in court a lot lately, he will use every interaction to delegitimize the courts and justice system every chance he gets. If he can get a significant enough chunk of people to accept that the courts are not legitimate, he can accomplish a lot of really bad, scary mayhem.
