The lawyer wrote in a filing he could “no longer effectively and properly represent” Trump because of “irreconcilable differences.”

At some point they would probably let him defend himself, but that would be a massive shitshow
The problem is if he wants a lawyer,m… he’s entitled to one. Chatted with a public defender about it during the last bout of documents lawyers getting arrested…
Basically, barring trump directly threatening the lawyer or harassing the lawyer, the court appointed fellow will “do his best”, and also refer any “he asked me to break the law again” to the court.
That said there’s probably enough ambulance chasers that think he’ll pay up front, and they can hit it up like a get rich quick scheme,
maybe wp:escrow for if the lawyer wins, but with an upfront fee for mere representation. A lawyer could even offer it publicly: $200/hr, 200 hrs minimum, 5x that if he wins.
