President Trump claimed on Twitter this morning that “many lawyers” want to represent him in the Russia case, and Twitter reacted with, well, a heavy dose of skepticism.

1. These guys will take the case!

[underpants]

2. His Canadian girlfriend

[Siwsan]

3. Un-freaking-believable!

Just when you think he can't get more ridiculous or delusional, he does.

[global1]

5. His Tweet Today Is Another Example Of Trump Crying Out.....

that he is guilty.

[Siwsan]

6. It is breathtaking, isn't it

I suspect this is once again an appropriate photo to share:

27. More likely a 'Stormy' week.

[Siwsan]

28. Absolutely! I stand corrected!!!

This is one of those many, many times I'm glad I chose to retire early. Otherwise there'd be a whole lot of shocked noises coming from my cubicle.

4. "many" could be 4, Benedict Donald is full of crap !!

[TBA]

7. So he is President Fame & Fortune from now on.

[Danascot]

8. So he won't take your advice

He'll perjure himself immediately if he's interviewed by Mueller.
He'll disagree with you and publicly belittle you.
He'll fire you in a matter of weeks or even days.
Then he'll stiff you for your fees.
And you'll be tarnished forever for having worked for Trump.

Why wouldn't any lawyer jump at the chance to be Trump's attorney?

12. Ding...Ding...Ding...We have a Winner

Very few in Big Law want to take on Trump as client for all of the reasons above AND

the firm's reputation will be tarnished forever from the crap work you have to do for Trump. Look at the lawyers at Morgan Lewis who worked for Trump. They are the laughingstocks of the profession.

[Gothmog]

9. The top lawyers and lawfirms do not want to associated with trump

[Cha]

11. Name six!

OK, name three!

Oh, never mind.

[Wawannabe]

16. Lol! Never mind...

You are so right. ...it’ll never happen!
Would be easier to hire ring masters from defunct circuses. That would be the main function of any firm he was able to retain.
Managing the three ring circus that is the current administration. Or six? Oh, never mind.

Cheers!

17. ..

[C_U_L8R]

13. Could he be a bigger idiot?

Oh sorry, dumb question.

[SeattleVet]

30. Never ask that type of thing!!!

He always seems to take it as a challenge.

[struggle4progress]

14. Perry Mason! and Mr Consigliere! and Gerald Ford!

[gratuitous]

18. I hear good things about Ben Matlock

Not sure if he's admitted to the federal bar in DC, though.

[Buns_of_Fire]

19. Is that "fortune" denominated in dollars or rubles? nt

[BobTheSubgenius]

20. I like the "fame and fortune" part.

At least he acknowledges that his legal costs will reach even more astronomical levels than ever...and also the infamy that will find whatever lawyer this might be.

[Liberalagogo]

21. The Shithole sure does

like to use lots of weasel words.

[Stonepounder]

22. Of course lawyers also prefer clients without a history of stiffing their lawyers.

[Dopers_Greed]

23. He's probably the worst client imaginable

I mean, who else tweets evidence of their guilt regularly.

[Fritz Walter]

24. Clearly, this is a typo

Just the latest in a very long series of fat-fingers-on-small-screen-itis messing up his Tweets.
While writing, he was probably trying to excrete the mass composed of all the Big Macs he consumed yesterday, and his pudgy finger slipped.

What he meant to write was "Manly lawyers..."

[lindysalsagal]

25. I found the lawyers 45 was talking about...

Or, maybe these guys...

[Eliot Rosewater]

26. I am tired of this filthy, traitorous piece of shit and his nonstop assault on the graves of

the men and women who fought to keep this country free and somewhat responsible.

[MagickMuffin]

29. Why isn't his good ol buddy Rudolph William Louis Giuliani presenting him?

Hmmmmm, where is his BFF Rudy?
