NY Times: Trump Looking At Adding Impeachment Lawyer To WH Team

[edpc]

WASHINGTON (CNN) - President Donald Trump met with a lawyer who represented then-President Bill Clinton during the impeachment process and is talking with him about a role at the White House, The New York Times reported Saturday.

The Times, citing four people familiar with the matter, said Trump met with lawyer Emmet T. Flood in the Oval Office about joining the team as Trump and his allies continue to deal with the special counsel investigation led by former FBI Director Robert Mueller.

Two of the sources told the paper that no final decision had been made, and the Times said Flood joining the team would not replace White House lawyer Ty Cobb.

If Emmet T. Flood is smart, he'll run in the opposite direction.

Based on the last 3 years of speeches, I had not thought President Trump capable of foresight and logical preparation.  How does he have the time to contemplate when the distractions of the Gorilla Channel, golfing, and porn stars beckon?

   He's found extra time by combining his viewing habits, Naked Gorilla Golf.

This isn’t an an idea he came up with on his own. There’s only two reasons why you do this:

1) You know you did something wrong.
2) You expect to lose the House in November.

I wish someone had told us Trump was unethical, and would destroy the GOP eventually.

I sure wish I was as bright as you guys.  I haven't a freakin idea what's going to happen in November, but you have it all sussed out.  Damn.

I truly hope we never end up with impeachment.

Me neither, but they have internal polls and projections.  So, the only reason to consult with someone who has impeachment experience is if you’re anticipating the possibility.

I'm going with the latter.

The Republicans have well-earned their fate.

Are you saying you can't speculate why President Trump would want an impeachment lawyer?

Low I.Q. dumbshites in the House?

My Speculator is fine.  It's the Conclusionator I'm not so sure about.

They've already had weak articles introduced and voted down.  Pelosi said she doesn't subscribe to the idea of impeachment, but she also said Trump would never, ever be president.

They sell those at RadioShack.



Pretty sure it's all on clearance.  Might get a good deal on a new one.
