Everything you could possibly want except for fortune, and the fame you'll accrue is no bargain, either.

I don't seem to hear much about that among all the Donald J. Quisling von Vichy corruption stories.

You're a lawyer, fame and fortune is all you crave.
Just "fix" it!

Sorry sir, you're screwed beyond fixing.

Should have added "previous requirement of not having a moustache or approved to appear before the Supreme Court no longer relevant"

Be careful of the contract, though. The hugely successful guy is known for reneging on contracts. In fact, he's caused more bankruptcies than he has himself undergone.

Story posted at CNN a few hours ago:

https://www.cnn.com/2018/03/28/politics/donald-trump-lawyer/index.html

snip



Several top US law firms have left President Donald Trump with few places to turn for legal help in the Russia probe.

Five large law firms are passing on the opportunity to represent the President after a shakeup last week on his private defense team and as he anticipates giving possible testimony to special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation.

snip

Olson said on MSNBC on Monday that Trump's White House is in "chaos" and "beyond normal." Olson declined to speculate on what kind of legal help Trump may still need.
