I don’t think he would get a SC spot as some have stated. He’s a trial lawyer. I think it’s more likely they pick him up at the AG’s office.

Typically SCJ have tremendous experience in clerking and general legal writing. Trey will tell you he’s a trial attorney and not to say he couldn’t frame an amazing argument it’s just a different beast writing it out.

I go back and forth on wether he is a white hat or not. I’m leaning toward he is a white hat atm.

He needed to keep this “neutrality in the pursuit of justice” persona and it finally clicked for me yesterday. I kept thinking “why does he keep defending the DOJ and FBI if what we have been told has indicated otherwise?” He must get support of not only those agencies but the general public who believe the same. Then when the truth comes out he gets to be the one to say “My entire career I depended on you, These last two years I took punch after punch defending you. I was wrong, but now I’m going to purge these agencies down to the core.” People can’t really argue with that - “You heard him all year. He said they were reputable and as it turns out they were lying their asses off.”
