Call me credulous but I think there might be something to that "top law firms didn't want to represent Trump" story from a bit back.

This is actually a legal finger crossing thing where Kasowitz is going to see he was never talking about PRESIDENT Trump and then reveal his flawless real defense
You see, as PREDISENT DONALD of the family TRUMP, I am not subject to your admiralty court and cannot be judged by the laws of this unconstitutional government.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

some industries may consider one or the other wrong so just go with the flow

This is incorrect, the proper course of action is to dig in your heels and insist everyone else is doing it wrong.

YES. This is exactly the right thing to be emphasizing. Also the House is voting to day (or has it already and I missed it?) to kill Dodd-Frank. So while this morning has been fun AND substantive, there are more reasons to want Republicans out of power forever and ever, and the Dems need to keep nailing them on it.

No. The Senate can vote to expel a member itself but this requires a 2/3 majority and hasn't happened since the Civil War.

Those comments to the bankers aren't really any different than the fundraising emails that go out with "I AM DEFINITELY LOSING. PLEASE SEND MONEY!" subject lines.

She was hitting them up for money and would have said something like that whether it was accurate or not.

Absolutely not. What she's saying there is poison to getting donations: "i am going to lose for reasons outside my control." What's some extra money going to do to that?

I've always wondered how effective the alarmist tactic is for increasing donations. Every e-mail I get from the DCCC makes it sound like the Democrat Party is on the verge of being sacked by Visigoths.
