Opinion: Trump’s election challenges put lawyers’ credibility on the line

CNN  

Editor’s Note: Jennifer Rodgers is a former federal prosecutor, Adjunct Professor of Clinical Law at NYU School of Law, Lecturer-in-Law at Columbia Law School, and a CNN legal analyst. Act One kicks off with the inevitable Presidential Twitter rants, repeated by Trump’s mouthpieces – including some of his legal advisers – on right-wing news outlets, claiming without evidence that fraud was rampant in the 2020 election, that Democrats are trying to steal the White House, and that when only “legal” votes are counted, Trump will be declared the winner. The lawyers representing the Trump Campaign really got to work in Act Two, dutifully filing lawsuits in the chosen battleground states in complaints that set forth various legal claims about this supposedly rampant fraud. So when Team Trump lawyers actually stood before judges who started asking pointed questions about the allegations and the proof, in case after case, the sweeping claims of fraud turned into something very different, with cautious lawyers furiously backtracking. Notwithstanding the self-preservation demonstrated by most Trump lawyers, a different path emerged for Rudy Giuliani in Tuesday’s hearing in Donald J. Trump for President, Inc.. Pennsylvania Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar, the case that is looking like Team Trump’s last stand.
