Discussion: Meet The Hard-Charging Lawyer Trump Tapped To Defend Him In Russia Probe

they even run afoul of advisors in Putin’s government…

Can’t imagine that’s a recipe for longevity. These guys ought to stay clear of any open windows.

I see what you’re saying and agree you have a basis. I tend to think the article makes it seem Kasowitz is closer to Trump than he probably actually is, since it focuses on their past history and mentions a few startling cases Kasowitz has handled…but (I’d guess) leaves out more than it includes. Other than the loud-mouth part, though, point taken.

Truly unbelievable!

“Though not a criminal lawyer and no background in the kind of high stakes national security work the Russia investigation will entail, he has been solidly in Donald Trump’s corner for decades, defending him doggedly if not always successfully.”

And donald is supposed to be some very very smart man with a yooge brain. This guy isn’t even a criminal lawyer he’s just a we will settle kind of lawyer. You can’t settle on colluding with the Russians donald.

Lawyers like to say: If the facts are your side, argue facts. If the law is on your side, argue law.
If neither is on your side, scream a lot.

Hi Sockey!

I was an associate in Marc Kasowitz’s firm. I lasted one year before I ran screaming. “Willingness to get their hands dirty” pretty much captures it.
