If the government wrongs you, you should be able to fight back in court. And unless you happen to be an attorney, you'll need one to do so.
Trump, to bend the judicial system to his dictatorial will, is using his power to punish private law firms who had represented clients opposing him in the past and force them to support him over the Americans he harms.
Kirkland & Ellis LLP, Allen Overy Shearman Sterling US LLP, Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, and Latham & Watkins LLP, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, Willkie, Farr & Gallagher, and Milbank, along with Paul Weiss and others were extorted into providing hundreds of millions in free legal work benefitting Trump and changing the internal policies of their private businesses in ways that Trump demands.
This means that now, if you wish to oppose Trump in court, Trump will attempt to – and may succeed – in destroying the law firm taking your case, making it far less likely that you'll find an attorney to represent you.
