I don't think he wants Trump's shit on the bottom of his shoes.

They are scraping the bottom of the barrel in terms of lawyers. They'd never get Olson.

He helped argue and win a big progressive case, and I seem to remember him being involved with a second one.

No, people, there's NO SIGN OF ANY FRAUD.
