It's been well established that Trump succeeded in weeding out the most incompetent associates

in an otherwise well-respected law firm or two.

Rudy. How'd he ever make Federal Assistant Prosecutor? How did he win those convictions?

And silence from Alan Dershowitz. Yeah, him. Reversal of Fortune, Claus Von Bulow. He's no trial lawyer. He excels at appeals. Why isn't he writing the appeals briefs on overtime?

This entire episode is the legal equivalent of Jimmy Breslin's The Gang That Could Not Shoot Straight.

Unless --

Unless Trump has something so sinister, so overwhelming, that it doesn't matter how bad his lawyers are.

If he had been successful, he would have weeded himself out, along with his family.

Association with Trump has turned their brains to mush. Trump must be a carrier of mad cow disease or something.
