The surprising move ahead of Trump's surrender and processing has inevitably led to speculation. Still, Trump's team claims the legal switch has nothing to do with Findling's performance.
As NBC News reports:
Findling could not immediately be reached for comment.ย
Sadow confirmed he is now representing Trump in a statementย
โI have been retained to represent President Trump in the Fulton County, Georgia case,โ he said in the statement. โThe president should never have been indicted. He is innocent of all the charges brought against him, we look forward to the case being dismissed or, if necessary, an unbiased, open minded jury finding the president not guilty. Prosecutions intended to advance or serve the ambitions and careers of political opponents of the president have no place in our justice system.โ
