People think trump has shit attorneys because no one good will work for him
A more likely reason is that Trump won’t hire an attorney that won’t tell him what he wants to hear. So of course his attorneys will tell him he won’t go to jail no matter what. If they told him what was going to happen, they wouldn’t be his attorneys anymore. And some other group of greedy idiots would be sitting at the table.
So yeah, it’s bullshit. But trump and maybe some of his kids are the only ones who don’t know it. His lawyers 100% know it’s bullshit.
Some attorneys won’t work for him because tying their reputation to him is a toxic move.
Some won’t work for him because he’s notorious for not paying and, as much as they are lawyers and so must enjoy being in court, they don’t want to have to sue to get paid.
Some won’t work for him because he’s notorious for not listening to his attorneys. If your lawyer tells you to stop with the public statements because they are hurting your case and your response is to INCREASE the frequency and intensity of your statements, your attorney might quit.
And some Trump won’t work with because they tell him the truth instead of what Trump wants to hear.
Combine all this and Trump’s selection of lawyers is extremely thin. He’s got one or two that might be somewhat decent, but the rest are a mixture of bottom of the barrel lawyers who see Trump as a quick way of rocketing their careers. Of course, to quote Woody from Toy Story, “rockets explode!” They could just as easily find their careers blown to bits, but they are willing to take the risk.

It’s a little of both.
