So on Monday at Jeffrey Clark's hearing where he was trying to get his case moved from state
court to federal court, there was somebody in that audience that really didn't have a
reason to be there other than to just find out what the hell was going on.
And that individual's, a man by the name of Steve Sadow, who happens to be one of Donald
Trump's lawyers.
Now, Trump wasn't in court yesterday.
He wasn't a part of the hearing, but Trump's lawyers decided, you know what, uh, I'm gonna,
I'm gonna go, I'm gonna see what all this is about.
Right?
It seems kind of important.
Wanna know what this guy's gonna say?
And according to witnesses, inside the courtroom, at one point, while the judge of course was
grilling, Jeffrey Clark's lawyers, Mr. Sal leaned over to the person with him.
And unfortunately the reports have not identified that individual, but he said, quote, this
is not good.
Trump's lawyer.
Upon hearing how the judge was handling Clark's lawyers, upon hearing, of course, that Clark's
lawyers threw Donald Trump under the bus and said, Hey, Clark was only doing it 'cause
Trump told him to.
At one point, Trump's own lawyer leans over to his person with him and says, loud enough
for other people to hear, this is not good.
Um, that's not good .
I mean, the fact that we now know that you are essentially panicking in the courtroom
on a part of a case that's not even related to your client, well, it's related to your
client.
That was probably a foolish thing for me to say.
But it didn't involve your client.
Okay?
Your client wasn't there.
You had, you know, really no reason to be there.
And now that you went there, you've made an of yourself and let everybody know that you're
now worried for your own client's future.
You couldn't have screwed that up any more.
The best thing to do, as I've said about Trump, as I've said about Giuliani, pretty much everybody,
sometimes the best thing to do is say nothing.
If you're panicked about something and you're a lawyer, you should know this, but I'll teach
you anyway.
You got your pad, or you got your phone out taking notes, and you Mark A. Little note,
talk about what the judge just said that made you nervous.
You put a pen in it and you talk to your co-counsel later on in private.
You don't lean over to them in court, especially loud enough for other people to apparently
hear you and say, this is not good.
You may as well have leaned over and said, Trump is definitely going to jail.
I mean, that's essentially what you're saying anyway.
Why not just come out and say that?
But if Trump's lawyers are freaking out, that's probably a good sign for justice, right?
It means that
They're watching as this judge handles these other defendants and they know that if their
weak legal arguments cannot pass the muster, then they're even weaker.
Legal arguments are not going to fly with this judge.
They were hoping they could get in there, steamroll everything, throw out Donald Trump's
idiotic talking points, and everything would be cool from that point forward.
But they are quickly learning that that is not the case and this is not good.
That statement tells us that that lawyer just had an epiphany in that courtroom that, oh
God, what I've been crafting in my head, maybe the defense we've been talking about back
at the office, that ain't gonna fly and now we don't know what to do.
That's what that tells me.
Now they've got time to come up with a new defense, maybe craft some new arguments, but
if they've already lost their initial defense because of how scared they were with that
judge on Monday, then I don't think anything they come up with at this point is gonna be
any better.
