Pennsylvania Is Going Well For El Hefty

The law firm leading President Donald Trump’s legal effort to challenge the results of Pennsylvania’s election abruptly withdrew from his campaign’s marquee case late Thursday.

Lawyers from Columbus, Ohio-based Porter Wright Morris & Arthur offered no explanation for their departure from a federal lawsuit filed Monday in Williamsport that asked a judge to block Pennsylvania from certifying its election results.

In a motion filed with the court, the lawyers said only that the Trump campaign “and Porter Wright have reached a mutual agreement that plaintiffs will be best served if Porter Wright withdraws.”

The firm did not immediately return calls for comment Friday morning.

These law firms dropping the trump campaign are telling. I would think that a reputable and ethical law firm would not drop a client simply because their client is taking an unpopular position. It seems that maybe the firm thinks the client it taking some liberties with their own ethics? That would be hard to believe I know where trump is concerned.

If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say it sounds like somebody hasn't been getting timely paid.

Don't forget, they have been putting NAZI's into socialists, equating them with communists, for a while now. Forgetting that NAZIs had a massive war with the Soviet Union- as they thought communism was deathly evil- and that it was the second time Nazis and communists fought (Spanish Civil War).

It also ignores the fact that the difference between single payer healthcare and what we have now is that the current system rewards the money launderers by letting them make a ton of money doing nothing. Well, they do something- tell you where you can and can't have things done, what things you are allowed to have done, etc. Single payer will include all doctors (as it has to) and all procedures (as it would have to).

But explanation is impossible to people who are too stupid to think on their own. Easier to just go on the National Socialist.... and pretend that Hitler made a socialist system so that we can all fear socialism for reasons.

We always allow them to define us. We never effectively define them.

Given the number of legal opinions where the judge can very harshly sanction lawyers due to their "argument" it sounds like it's a lot more than just late payments. This isn't dumpy himself, it's the campaign.

I'll let uno talk more about that- but to just think it's about money seems kind of shallow.

these are lawyers we're talking about, not people. "Shallow" defines them :-)

I think it's a combination of pressure from other large accounts and the likely overwhelming concern that the Trump campaign will stiff them. Few things make a law firm stop in their tracks like the fear of tens of thousands of billable hours unpaid.

I believe the "he's going to stiff us" reason is certainly a part. Especially given that the fine print on the "donate to our legal fight" says the money wont actually go to the legal fight.
 
It Speaks

President Donald Trump refused to acknowledge in a new interview that he had been beaten by President-elect Joe Biden, insisting that his campaign’s election-related legal challenges would reverse the race’s outcome and arguing Americans should “never bet against me.”

The unrealistic prediction from the president, published in the Friday edition of Washington Examiner correspondent Byron York’s newsletter, represented some of Trump’s first remarks to a member of the news media since Biden was declared the winner of the 2020 White House race last weekend.

In his interview with York, however, Trump argued he was still competitive in several key swing states where Biden had already emerged victorious, saying he was “going to win Wisconsin” — a state called for Biden last Wednesday where Trump is currently trailing by more than 20,000 votes.
In Arizona, which was also called for Biden as early as last Wednesday, the race will “be down to 8,000 votes,” Trump said, even though he is behind by more than 11,000 votes there. “If we can do an audit of the millions of votes, We’ll find 8,000 votes easy. If we can do an audit, we’ll be in good shape there,” he said.

Trump went on to say he was “going to win” Georgia, which has not been officially called but where Biden has a lead of more than 14,000 votes. Georgia’s top election official announced Wednesday that the state would conduct a hand recount of every ballot cast in the presidential race.

“Now we’re down to about 10,000, 11,000 votes, and we have hand counting,” Trump told York, incorrectly stating his vote deficit in Georgia. “Hand counting is the best. To do a spin of the machine doesn’t mean anything. You pick up 10 votes. But when you hand count — I think we’re going to win Georgia.”

Trump also said he would win North Carolina, an uncalled state where he is ahead of Biden by more than 71,000 votes, and suggested his campaign’s litigation could result in him picking up both Michigan and Pennsylvania — two states that were called for Biden last week where Trump trails by more than 146,000 votes and more than 60,000 votes, respectively.

Trump was less certain about the timeline for his campaign’s various legal actions, speculating that he may be able to overturn the election results in “probably two weeks, three weeks.” And despite his rosy assessments, the president revealed that he entertained the prospect of losing his reelection bid at some point last week.

Given that attorneys read the fine print, again, this is not a valid reason alone to drop a client you agreed to represent. My guess is the campaign has clearly and repeatedly offered documents and testimony the legal firms have determined to be untrue and don't feel like standing there while perjurious testimony is being offered.

I’d imagine their other corporate clients aren’t very happy being associated with a toxic Trump as well. I’d be willing to bet some quiet phone calls from board rooms were made.

Oh I totally agree that is a huge part of it too. I can just picture someone saying "Let me get this straight...our big corporate clients aren't happy we are representing him, they are asking us to lie and perjure ourselves, and they are likely going to try to stiff us? Yeah, this is not worth it"
 
Politico wants you all to be concerned that Biden is having people "tied to the defense industry" as part of his transition team for the Pentagon (imagine that!) and the Far Left is not happy about it.

You know...the country would be in a much better place if the media didn't make it seem like every Democrat hates every other Democrat.
