Welcome back to the Dirt Show. I get a lot of emails asking me why I'm not defending

Donald Trump. Well, the reason is because I have had a policy for the last more than half

a century that I defend somebody once. I don't want to become the lawyer for a person.

My much stronger preference is to represent somebody for an event for a crime, for an allegation.

I don't represent it, never represented people more than once. I do have to admit that there's

a part of me that wishes that I could represent either Donald Trump or some of the

co-defendants in this very, very weak and very dangerous Rico case. By the way, for those of you

don't know what Rico means, it's not the name of a person, although some people associate it

with the mafia. It's racketeering influence and corrupt organization from the title. It's clear

that it was intended to apply to racketeers. Who's a racketeer? We know what the racketeers are.

Is this the end of Rico? And would you Robinson in that in that great in that great film? Well,

it's not the end of Rico. Rico has gotten a new life. It's now a law in which people,

prosecutors and vicious prosecutors can go after people who are engaged in political activities.

I think often when I read this indictment, my God, it could have applied to those of us in 2000

who tried to undo the election of George W. Bush. We thought it was wrong. We thought that

Al Gore had won a Florida, that's the 576 of whatever number of votes there were, were very much

less than the number of votes that were prevented from being cast for Al Gore. Remember the butterfly

ballot, the hanging chads? There were some minority people who weren't allowed to vote because

the lines were too long and the polls were closed. There were all kinds of problems with the election.

Gore's legal team lobbied state legislature. That's now a crime.

Demanded recounts over and over again. That's now a crime. Did other things of the kind that

lawyers commonly do in protesting elections?
