Donald Trump and Jack Smith are both beefing up their legal teams in preparation for a potential Supreme Court showdown — but when it comes to experience arguing before the justices, the difference could hardly be more stark.
Smith, the special counsel prosecuting the former president, has brought in one of the most accomplished modern Supreme Court advocates: Michael Dreeben, who has argued more than 100 cases at the high court and is a preeminent authority on the court’s criminal law doctrines.
Trump has added at least three lawyers, none of whom are part of the clubby cohort of Supreme Court advocates. They are D. John Sauer, Will Scharf and Michael Talent, according to a person familiar with Trump’s plans. All three are based in Missouri, and according to a database of Supreme Court arguments , Sauer has argued a single case, while Scharf and Talent have not argued before the court.
D. John Sauer worked closely with Scalia and Hawley.
I’m gonna say I’d be wasting my time even looking up the other two Tromp lawyers. Same shit apples from the same shitapple trees.
Fucking shit birds!
Good draft class for Smith but Trump has home field advantage
Good thing his legal team has the prowess of the Beverly Hillbillies.
If Granny had her white lighting she’d run circles around them
Well sure, but have any of them ever sold shitty overpriced pillows for a living? Or even booked a major press conference at a lawn & garden center next to a dildo store? I mean, if your legal team doesn’t even have their own personal indictments to worry about, are they even qualified?
Olbermann was talking about this the other day. Dreeben is a serious legal stud. Smith seems to be fully prepared for everything at this point. Solid move preemptively bringing this to the SC. Screwed with the planned timeline of Trump’s crackerjack legal team.
