Kid Rock becoming Senator won't be very funny when he fucks over all the black people, Latinos, and other minorities living in Detroit, Flint,

It's not gonna be cool or good, but it kinda makes sense in this hell reality we live in. Just like Trump being president. The worst and dumbest things are going to keep happening, you can either have a laugh about it or despair.

Lots of reasons; they don't trust them, it means admitting some bad acts, maybe they really believe their version of events.

Then there are the occasional sociopaths...


Also, a lot of lawyers do give a gently caress. It's your job & they want to do it well.

I grew up in the Detroit area and I still have family/friends who live there. It's much easier to laugh about Trump's stupidity because his dumbass antics are much further away from people who I care about than Kid Rock as Senator in Michigan.

I mean like they're not really going to give a gently caress about what you did wrong so while I recognize that people don't like to admit bad things the lawyers aren't going to blow their entire career and probably end up in prison in order to out you.

Just idk it's like when people lie to their doctor. They're not going to call the police because you tell them you did a drug. They only want to know so they can treat you the best way possible.

In Trump's case, remember that he was asked a few months back if there's anything he's done that he thinks was wrong or that he regrets, ever. He answered no. You think he's going to tell a lawyer that he screwed up and did something illegal rather than tell him them that some stupid poor loser guy is getting in his face and he needs to make him go away?

Some attorneys only handle certain types of cases. Some will not handle cases of sexual assault, homicide or other similarly serious crimes. Sometimes, cases get too big or unwieldy, or too difficult and an attorney & their firm cannot effectively represent their client. So sometimes they do give a gently caress about what you did wrong; and charges can change over time as a case develops.

Also, sometimes you do have to "out you" in order to protect themselves. Attorneys cannot assist a client in the furtherance of a crime for example, and there are some instances where you are required to report your client to the authorities- though usually there's an imminence necessary.

It is always worth bringing up that Trump's former lawyers always met with him in pairs because he lied so much. I don't think he lies to his lawyers for any particular reason, he is just a habitual liar.

Well, he's running for US Senate not the state senate so if he wins he's voting on stuff that affects the entire country. Besides, anything that makes the republican party look completely ridiculous probably benefits us all in the long run.

Just idk it's like when people lie to their doctor. They're not going to call the police because you tell them you did a drug. They only want to know so they can treat you the best way possible.

well also, if your lawyer KNOWS you did something insanely loving illegal they could potentially craft their defense with some of that knowledge which could implicate your guilt even if your lawyer is fighting that accusation. it may not even be a written-down, conscious strategy, it could just sort of end up that way.

also, while a lawyer won't rat you out for lying, they're not really supposed to craft a defense around your lie because that could come back to bite them in the rear end. so lawyers will sometimes tell their clients to shut the gently caress up before that happens.

trump is so well known to be a complete lying moron that his lawyers will pretty much never be given the benefit of the doubt when it comes to not knowing about his crimes, which is why he's such a terrible client.
