I do not know if Trump will resign (still at 35% in my meter) but I do agree with the Mooch that if the end does come, it will come abruptly.

What’s the saying? Elect a clown, expect a circus. This is a variation on a theme apparently.

This would be fun.

Both the accused and the defense attorney with substantial degradation due to dementia?

Geez…

Oh ya - now were talking. Guiliani w/ trump representing himself as well. That’d be a show alright. Hell, lets get all of the accused up there running the show! Seems fitting.

Not only is he a potential witness, he may have some criminal liability here and there. Rudy is such a brilliant lawyer that he probably thinks that if he’s on the defense team everything he’s done will be covered by not only attorney client but also executive privilege.

Can you appeal an impeachment on the grounds of incompetent counsel? I don’t think there’s a provision for that.

I’m probably not the only one who thinks that Guliani’s own defense team is advising him to push for this? That it will - somehow - confer more ‘protection’ in his own criminal defense cases?

Perhaps they believe it will paper over Guiliani’s claims of executive privilege - if instead of being some sort of tRumped up pro-bono personal lawyer to the prez - he’s officially ‘assigned’ (via imperial tweet) to the team?

It’s crazy of course - but crazy is PAR for this course at this point.

If Barr allows it, you know the fix is in.

Or should I say, when Barr allows it?

Why not include Rudy? I mean he’s sure to be the adult in the room. He may even accuse Obama of orchestrating this whole bizarre trump presidency with the help of that master of intrigue George Soros somehow. I mean this all hasta be their fault. And it was Obama that got the Russians interested in alla this, right?? And “Deep State”… we can’t forget alla them guys…

I’ll let myself out

Of course, Guliani knows that if he’s on Trump’s legal team, he could argue that he cannot be a witness. On the other hand, he’s not been serving as the President’s lawyer, but as Trump’s personal attorney, and it’s Trump as President who’s being impeached, not Trump the citizen with a personal attorney. Tricky business, and more TV time and money for Guliani, as he sees it, no doubt. Anyway, John Roberts will sort all this out, right?

How can we help?

I’m willing to head up a PR campaign, design posters, anything except pay money.
