Trump can't even hire a decent lawyer: His lawyer claimed HE sent that tweet as Donald that incriminated him for obstruction of justice. But the tweet was an incredible blunder and any lawyer would know that. It also contained "he pled guilty", which a lawyer would NEVER write. The proper legal terminology is "pleaded".
So he's obviously lying to protect his client but he's so bad at it that anybody can see through him. What kind of a crappy lawyer can't tell a convincing lie?
