say the reason Trump's lawyers picked Dearie is because he was the FISA court judge when the FISA warrants for Carter Page were presented, then extended twice. These were the same affadavits that were subsequently found to have been falsely prepared by the FBI. Apparently Trump and his lawyers thought that Dearie would hold that against the FBI, just like Trump himself would do, and discount their affidavits.
Pretzel logic for sure, but there you have it.

Right now Trump is telling everyone the documents were planted, the OJ defense. Trumps lawyers now have to figure out how to respond to their clients stupidity. Every lawyer should know by now you cannot work for Trump. He will fuck you over.
