Since Trump has been searched in the Haihu Manor in Florida, he and the team have quickly implemented a counterattack. However, according to the Washington Post on the 16th, the biggest crisis currently facing Trump is likely to be a lack of experienced lawyers.

At present, the former president's legal team includes a Florida insurance lawyer who has never dealt with federal cases, a former general legal adviser to a parking lot company, and a former host of a very right -wing media.

The Washington Post reported on August 16 that Trump and assistant had spent 8 days and rushed to form a professional defense lawyer team, but they have been rejected. The ideal candidates in their hearts answered "No "".

Trump is not unfamiliar with legal lawsuits. He has many experiences with the court, but this time it is obviously different. What he needs is an experienced criminal defense lawyer because he may face the "Spy Law".

According to two insiders, Trump's team is extremely concerned about his current team of lawyers, and most people have little experience in such cases.

Florida's famous defense lawyer Jon Sel, who had sued the team in the Watergate incident, was one of Trump's lawyers. He claimed that he had no time. He said: "Trump needs a first -class, experienced federal criminal lawyer, you must evaluate whether you want to accept this job. This is different from the case of drunk driving. It is the next president, which will be one of the most striking cases ever. "

Usually, powerful lawyers are willing to represent the former president, after all, the prestige and popularity of the former president are there. But Trump's case is obviously a special case.

Trump has been a infamous customer for a long time. The lawyer he hired when he was young, the late Roy Cohen broke the news that he was extremely harsh, "called 15 to 20 times a day", when Trump appeared in the real estate market in Manhattan.

Trump's other former lawyer Michael Cohen broke the news: "He was sentenced to tax evasion, false statements, violating campaign financial regulations and lying to Congress in 2018. He is also a very difficult customer because he always challenges Limit, he rarely listens to reasonable legal suggestions. He wants you to do something inappropriate, whether it is moral or legal. "

A lawyer who did not belong to the Trump team said that the people surrounding Trump are just "making him happy."

Former Harvard College Professor Allen Shawovitz has provided suggestions to Trump in the past, and is now excluded from the team. He said: "Trump needs a huge, excellent, experienced, and trial case. Experienced defense team may last for several months. "During this period, the lawyers needed a high degree of focus, and it was impossible to have energy and time to deal with other cases. This is one of the reasons why Trump has repeatedly rejected.

At the same time, some outstanding lawyers may think that the public will confuse Trump's position with the lawyer's position. They are unwilling to expose themselves in this potential public condemnation.
