Donald Trump arrested: Lawyer Jim Trusty quits another case over 'irreconcilable differences'

Donald Trump's attorney Jim Trusty, who resigned from representing him after he was indicted on federal charges last week, withdrew from another legal matter involving the former president Friday.

Citing "irreconcilable differences," Trusty indicated in a filing in the U.S. District Court of Southern Florida that he would be pulling out of Trump's pending defamation suit against CNN.

“Mr. Trusty’s withdrawal is based upon irreconcilable differences between Counsel and Plaintiff and Counsel can no longer effectively and properly represent Plaintiff,” Trusty wrote in the filing, which he signed.

Trusty as well as lawyer John Rowley previously said they would not represent Trump in the charges brought against him by special counsel Jack Smith, which pertain to documents retained from his presidency and alleged obstruction of a federal investigation in the handling of those records.

The pair of lawyers made the announcement of their departure last Friday, one day after Trump had been indicted. Trump pleaded not guilty to the charges Tuesday in Miami federal court.

Trump's lawsuit against the news network seeks $475 million in damages, alleging CNN of a "campaign of dissuasion in the form of libel and slander” that “escalated in recent months.”

This is what is known in the business as a "client control issue".  And the worst thing about this is that it suggests that even if he should be able to win these cases, Trump himself may screw them up enough that he loses.

I've seen one video that said Trump lawyers are being threatened with disbarment for representing Trump, so I'm not sure what to believe anymore.

Just my opinion, but I believe it is probable that his lawyers are being threatened.  As most of us realize the leftists/marxists are going to do anything and everything to ensure that he's locked up.

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
