With the emphasis on Angry and Drunk.

I kind of expect him to get disbarred at some point not long from now.

Trump Lawyer Marc Kasowitz Threatens Stranger in Emails: ‘Watch Your Back , Bitch’

Marc Kasowitz, President Trump’s personal attorney on the Russia case, threatened a stranger in a string of profanity-laden emails Wednesday night.

The man, a retired public relations professional in the western United States who asked not to be identified, read ProPublica’s story this week on Kasowitz and sent the lawyer an email with the subject line: “Resign Now.’’

Kasowitz replied with series of angry messages sent between 9:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. Eastern time. One read: “I’m on you now. You are fucking with me now Let’s see who you are Watch your back , bitch.”

In another email, Kasowitz wrote: “Call me. Don’t be afraid, you piece of shit. Stand up. If you don’t call, you’re just afraid.” And later: “I already know where you live, I’m on you. You might as well call me. You will see me. I promise. Bro.”

Kasowitz’s spokesman, Michael Sitrick, said Thursday he couldn’t immediately reach Kasowitz for comment.

9. Kasowitz is an alcoholic. Would not surprise me if he was drunk last night

And coupled with his decreasing lack of filter, it makes sense that he responded in such a horrific manner. A thud is a thug is a thug. Birds of a feather flock together. No wonder he is the orangutan's legal face.

10. This guy has a history of drunken brawls, and apparently apologized for the emails

via a spokesman later. Also, the aforementioned drunken brawls are why this particular lawyer cannot get security clearance. So it's unknown how he'll be able to defend tRump on, you know, Russian investigation.

14. A legitimate attorney defending a legitimate businessman. Nothing to see here

Now here is a thought. Attorneys are turning down offers to defend tRump. What if Kasowitz cannot get clearance, but tRump can't find another lawyer who can get clearance? It's a long shot, but here's hoping.
