    What I don’t understand is how someone who has been dealing with lawsuits his whole life could be so stupid?

    He has $40 million worth of legal advice, it’s not being stupid or uninformed. They’re giving the best possible defense, and it’s a very bad one.

      Eh, he’s not exactly hiring the best lawyers. In any other situation the best law firms would be jumping at the chance to defend a former president, but due to past behaviour (not paying, not following advice, committing additional crimes, asking lawyers to commit crimes for him), he’s only hiring rubes and crazies.
