They make a good point that Trump doesn't want to pay top notch lawyers and top notch lawyers would not want a client like Trump, not only does Trump not take advice and follow instruction he also has a habit of not paying lawyers if they don't win the case.

George Conway appeared to be thinking along the same lines, arguing in a Washington Postop-ed, "This is what happens when you don't pay your legal bills."
President Trump, whose businesses and now campaign have left a long trail of unpaid bills behind them, has never discriminated when it comes to stiffing people who work for him. That includes lawyers -- which is part of the reason he found the need to make some curious last-minute tweaks to his team, announcing the addition of the legal odd couple of Alan Dershowitz and Kenneth W. Starr.

The president has consistently encountered difficulty in hiring good lawyers to defend him. In 2017, after Robert S. Mueller III became special counsel, Trump couldn't find a high-end law firm that would take him as a client. His reputation for nonpayment preceded him: One major Manhattan firm I know had once been forced to eat bills for millions in bond work it once did for Trump. No doubt other members of the legal community knew of other examples.

Of course, being cheap wasn't the only reason Trump struck out among the nation's legal elite. There was the fact that he would be an erratic client who'd never take reasonable direction -- direction as in shut up and stop tweeting.

trump could have always engaged JUDGE JUDY - she is on tv (ok maybe watso is responding to the wrong post - but watso recalls reading somewhere that trump engaged lawyers who were on tv )..

come to think of it - but trump could have engaged the HC TRUMPIE LEGAL EXPERTS.... who would have represented trump PROBONER ..

(from memory - that had something to do with the power that pence had - but watso cannot be too specific)

MMM any of those HC TRUMPIE LEGAL EXPERTS - willing to raise their hands above the parapets -
