President Trump was having a hard time dealing with the issues that surrounded him. He wanted access to the files obtained by the FBI but was unable to do so.
Some believed that Trump was very worried about what was in the files the FBI now possessed. A Judge ruled that Trump and his lawyer Michael Cohen would have to wait before they could have access to the files.
Trump also continued to have issues with the Russian probe. Those who tried to defend Trump were having a hard time. It was unlikely that this was the position in which many of them wanted to find themselves.
Probing
One of the major concerns for those defending Trump was his ability to throw others under the bus.
Many lawyers who would have defended Trump refused because of his social media addiction. Trump was known for his undesirable tact for tweeting about any and everything.
“Obviously this is an unusual situation because it’s perfectly obvious that Mr. Trump likes to be his own lawyer, and lawyers have to be concerned about their own reputation. And I’m sure that factors into their thinking,” said Bill Jeffress.
Trump’s personal lawyer was also another burden for the President as he was being investigated for his role with any Russian connections.
