Leenia, AFAIK the lawyers who have refused (as one) to represent Drumpf have done so because (a) he does not listen and (b) then he stiffs you on the bill. So it is entirely possible that his advisers gave good advice (unlikely, since mostly he has handpicked arseholes as advisers) but the Drumpf chose not to listen.

OTOH, I ahve not (at least until now) had much respect for Khan as a politician, who I thought of as a conniving backstabber. But his work as a civil liberties lawyer (in the wonderfully named Christian Khan) commands nothing but respect. Even if he was a Bliarite he seems to be learning. Or maybe he is just being the Vicar of Bray.
