Trump replaces top Georgia lawyer ahead of surrender

Former President Donald Trump has replaced his top Georgia lawyer ahead of his surrender Thursday evening, sources tell CNN.
Drew Findling, the lawyer who has led Trump’s defense in Georgia, is being replaced by Steven Sadow, an Atlanta-based attorney whose website profile describes him as a “special counsel for white collar and high-profile defense.”

No sure what the other lawyer had said but it looks like Trump just went with someone who says what he wants to hear.
“I have been retained to represent President Trump in the Fulton County, Georgia case. The president should never have been indicted. He is innocent of all the charges brought against him,” Sadow said in a statement. “We look forward to the case being dismissed or, if necessary, an unbiased, open minded jury finding the president not guilty. Prosecutions intended to advance or serve the ambitions and careers of political opponents of the president have no place in our justice system.”
"hopefully the case just goes away. But I guess I could try to somehow get a not guilty for him if we can stack the jury the Right way."
"I just want some of that sweet Trump train money.
What do you mean, get the invoice later?"
Putting in appropriate effort for a job where the pay is exposure.
That exposure is gonna backfire- this case is basically a slam dunk.
A slam dunk unless someone in the audience (a single juror) decides that nothing the prosecution can do will make it a slam dunk so nobody gets any points (not guilty). Metaphor got away from me but all it takes is one juror to lie his way into the box and refuse to vote guilty no matter what.
Actually, that would be a mistrial.
Which results in a second trial- in this case it would be with a new jury. There would be no reason to dismiss the case if only one hold out was present.
And if it’s demonstrable that the juror lied- maybe by looking at social media- then they’re gonna get his with perjury.
God damn, do I want to live in the reality where bad press exists. Or have you not watched these exact assholes fail upwards for the last seven years?
The reason it’s going to back fire is you know trump is going to throw them under the bus when there’s nobody else to toss.
They’re going to fail, and trump is going to blame them. And he’s going to let the world know it.
Oh no, the condemnation of a narcissistic felon.

There's a reason it took 2.5 years to bring charges, and it's not that multiple prosecutors were sitting on their ass twiddling their thumbs.
And someone who won't be paid anyway
I mean wasn't his other lawyer arrested? I can see why he picked a new one. But who knows, Joe Biden's allies might have this one arrested too.
I honestly don't think Joe Biden has any interest in what lawyer Trump has today or why.
He probably has more relevant news to read. Did you know that Kim Kardashian once had a cover photo on a magazine that broke the internet?
😂
Wow, like a global internet outage?
Are you calling people that don't try to overturn elections "Joe Biden's allies"?
I suppose they would be, huh.
All these criminals keep getting arrested... it must be a conspiracy!
Please learn to live in reality. Please start caring what words mean.
Always with the projection ...
This is certainly a take... A silly take but still one nonetheless.
Pro-Tip: Anything you hear out of the GOP's mouth should be taken with a grain of salt and/or assume it's a political ploy.
