Once Loyal to Trump, Law Firms Pull Back From His Election Fight

Some were concerned that by representing Trump in his spate of frivolous lawsuits, they were 'legitimizing his arguments'.

That's amazing that they would say that and stop representing the President Of The United States.

What does that tell us about Trump?

Porter Wright withdrew from a federal lawsuit it had filed days earlier. A top Jones Day lawyer said the firm wouldn’t take on new election litigation.
Law firms that have represented President Trump and his campaign are now distancing themselves from a quixotic effort by Mr. Trump and his allies to overturn the results of the election won by President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr.

Porter Wright Morris & Arthur, the law firm leading the Trump campaign’s efforts to challenge the presidential election results in Pennsylvania, abruptly withdrew from a federal lawsuit that it had filed on behalf of the campaign. That followed a similar move by an Arizona law firm that was representing the Republican Party as it challenged that state’s results.
And on Friday, a top lawyer at Jones Day, which has represented Mr. Trump’s campaigns for more than four years, told colleagues during a video conference call that Jones Day would not get involved in additional litigation in this election.

...Some lawyers at Porter Wright and Jones Day had become increasingly vocal about their concerns that the work their firms were doing was helping to legitimize the president’s arguments. One Porter Wright lawyer resigned in protest over the summer.

 

The question is: what does this tell us about people who hate Trump?

Do you know why they withdrew? I'm guessing you don't. This trash article doesn't even mention it but here's why: Because some Lincoln Project scumbags doxxed a few of the attorneys, posted their info online, and the death threats started rolling in including targeting children.

 

This is one of those threads that isn't going to go how you thought it was. Even extreme left leaning Twitter thought they screwed up in doxing the attorneys that were working for Trump.

Twitter removes Lincoln Project tweet sharing contact info of Trump campaign attorneys
"Attorneys Carolyn McGee and Ronald Hicks are assisting the Trump team in its legal battle over mail-in ballots in Pennsylvania. The Lincoln Project tweeted, "Make them famous," to its 2.7 million followers along with an emoji depicting a skull-and-crossbones.

"The Tweet referenced is in violation of the Twitter Rules on abusive behavior," a Twitter spokesperson said in a statement to Fox News. "The account owner will be required to delete the violative Tweet before regaining access to their account.""



"The Lincoln Project also instructed Twitter users to create a LinkedIn account for the sole purpose of messaging employees at the attorneys' law firms Jones Day and Porter Wright to "ask them how they can work for an organization trying to overturn the will of the American people." The account then posted screenshots of messages from users who followed the instructions."

Now why do you think they pulled out? Let me give you a clue:

 

Trump must really be serious.

He brought in that great (emotionally-stable) legal eagle--RUDY:

The only scumbag in this equation is Donald Trump.

Lincoln project, they are patriots, they helped take Trump down.

Do you how many death threats and violent acts, etc., Trump caused others because of the wrath of his tweeting and bullying?

Recall the threats Vindman received because of Trump's bullying?

Apparently Trump can dish it out but he can't take it.

 

Ok so I'm confused. Are you for or against doxxing and subsequent death threats? Because you're pointing out that people have been threatened, presumably, as a result of some loose (very loose in fact) connection to Pres Trump's comments - but then on the other hand you're laying praise on the Lincoln Project which directly and intentionally encouraged targeted harassment of these attorneys and provided the means to do it. One might say that it appears that you're ok with this provided the target is essentially someone you don't like.

 

I'm pointing out that if you have a problem with death threats, then you have a problem with Trump, who has caused far more death threats via his bullying than any other president.

I don't condone death threats, that isn't the point. The point is your hypocrisy.

The whistleblower's legal team got death threats, this came This comes as Trump has publicly vilified the whistleblower
https://www.thedailybeast.com/trump-ukraine-whistleblowers-legal-team-is-getting-death-threats-wsj

Loose? When Trump engaged in witness intimidation DIRECTLY, of Trump vilifying Yovanovitch and Vindman, in REAL TIME,
both got death threats.

The lincoln project published Trump's lawyers for acquiescing to Trump fever swamp dream of thinking he can thwart the will of the people via courts. No president in history, except George Bush, has done this, But, in Bush's case, it was over 500 ballots. Biden is ahead by millions.

They didn't vilify anyone, they criticized the lawyers for taking money from a vexatious litigant, which they, if they had integrity, would have advised their client that he can't win, because that's the truth, he can't win. These lawsuits are pointless and waisting time. Yes, there are irregularities, all elections have them, but they are not proof of democrats rigging the election, which is what Trump has been saying long before any vote was ever counted.

What Trump is doing is undermining democracy. No president in history has done this. There is no fraud by dems. There are irregularities, with 160,000,000 ballots cast, they are inevitable, but that doesn't equal 'dems cheating' which is what Trump is alleging and he has been alleging that for a couple of years now.
irregularities happen and when they are cured they NEVER change the outcome of an election because they don't happen in sufficient numbers.

That salient fact apparently eludes you.

 

Oh, do tell!

 

=

Oh, so I'm supposed to vote for Trump now?

I don't think so.

 

Oh, my hypocrisy? Really? Because upon learning that these lawyers left the case because the Lincoln Project doxxed them, posted their info online, and encouraged people to "make them famous + skull/crossbones" your response was to praise the Lincoln Project and call them patriots before launching into a rant that basically boils down to 'Pres Trump is to blame for the actions of every nutjob because reasons'. Of the two of us, uhm, which praised an actual violent instigation whilst ranting about imaged one? Yea *spoiler alert* wasn't me - and everyone can see it.

The "salient fact" that is apparently eluding you is that every person in this country has the right to take advantage of the legal system and the right to legal representation. Lots of things are pointless wastes of time; the 2+ year Russian hoax for example was a pointless waste of time but the Justice Department had the right to appoint special council and Congress had the right to hold hearings on it. I don't think Pres Trump can turn this election to his favor with recounts and lawsuits but he is 100% entitled to try and more to the point he is Constitutionally guaranteed his right to legal council.

The fact that your here championing those who are creating political hit-lists that rob Americans of their rights while simultaneously trying to lecture me about hypocrisy and bullying would be hysterically funny if it weren't so poignantly deplorable. This sort of crap is precisely what we have to fear from the Marxist-progressive far-left and its crusade to destroy any freedom Americans have should it stand in their way or simply piss them off. Friend I have to tell you, I don't know if you're one of these far-left radical nutjobs or if you're just getting caught up in their rhetoric - but if it were me I'd be real careful about just how deep I get in with these types. Because you see the thing is every time one of these socialist/communist revolutions occurs they make their lists sure enough and lot of people pay a price for having opposed them. But then sometimes people fight back, revolutions get squashed, and now its a different group of people ...making lists of their own. Should that timeline play out and that day ever come these Marxist-progressives will be in a damned hurry to shield themselves with all the protection the Constitution affords - and they'll be fully within their rights to receive it.

 

Of course not, just see the hypocrisy in your hyperbole, but I doubt it will occur.

 

Jones Day is a big commercial Wall-Street firm with 1,000's of moving parts. They are more interested in not offending a high-paying corporation than they are anything else.

 

They were never loyal to Trump.

This is basically an opinion piece based on lies.

 

The Lincoln Project are liberals. It was liberals that pulled down statues of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington this summer. It is dubious at best to characterize globalists who despise America as patriots. Fighting for a worldwide oligarchy that strips autonomy from individual countries and their people is pretty much the opposite of patriotism.

 

Lol...why should any American be loyal to trump?
This isn’t a totalitarian shithole like North Korea.

 

It is a Republican enterprise. Stop lying
Founders

That was a gag. trump has actually killed well over 100,000 people with his intentional deceptions.

Do you understand the difference? I can draw pictures.

 

Being a neocon Republican does not make you a conservative. RINOs have no home with the 70 million people who voted for Trump. They need to be run out of the Republican Party completely.

All of the Globalists must be run out of the Republican Party. All of the Globalists MUST be in the Democratic Party. Filling both sides with Globalists removes the ability to choose from the American voter. It is in the illusion of a democratic government without the reality. This is the issue of our time. Do you want a global government or do you want a government that represents the people of the United States. Until the Republican Party is completely purged of globalists, the American people will never be afforded the opportunity to choose. These traitors posing as conservatives and presuming to speak for conservatives must be called out, shamed and forced to register as Democrats. Their worldview is in diametric opposition to the 70 million people who voted for Trump. They are the enemy.

 

Then you'll lose the next election because you'll have even less people voting republican. Bravo!

 

Its' funny to watch you change your direction from "even Trump's lawyers hate him" to "it's a good thing to dox and threaten and encourage other people to attack his attorneys because Trump is mean". Does this mean you realize that your original premise was a lie and that you bought into it and now you are trying to moving the goal posts to rationalize their dangerous and disgusting actions because "orange man bad"?

 

Kinda like saying Romney is a Republican. He is no more a Republican than Hillary Clinton.

 

They are Republican than Trump. The cuckoo bird has loved his nest

 

Maybe that is how come you guys hate Trump so much is because he is so liberal. Isn't that what the left claimed in 2016? That Trump is a liberal in disguise? Make up your ****ing minds. It's hard to keep up with all that goal post moving. Romney doesn't even know what he is anymore.

 

Funny.

Nah, just his behaviour. He probably got rejected by Democrat friends so he turned to the dark side. He wouldn't have any Republican friends either.

This is guessing though, I'll admit it. Perhaps his niece has some insights in her book

 

Leftists really don’t hear themselves when they suggest legitimate brown shirt activity. Republicans aren’t rioting over the loss. No violence. No threats. Can anyone honestly say the same if it went the other way? Cities weren’t boarding up windows anticipating Trumps loss. it was the win and why is that? Who are the violent ones actually doing all the damage? We’ve got 1000s of hours of video all over YouTube for anyone curious. The denial is pathetic.
