Cough it Up; Trumpist Lawyers Ed.

Michigan officials on Wednesday demanded that lawyers who unsuccessfully sued to overturn former President Donald Trump's election defeat in the state pay about $200,000 to reimburse for legal fees and related costs.

U.S. District Judge Linda Parker ruled last month that state and local election officials in Michigan were entitled to reimbursement of their legal fees, but has not yet determined the exact amount. The judge will now review the $200,000 request to determine if it is reasonable.

It's not unusual for judges to knock down the requested fees a bit, but this is still going to sting them alittle.

The beauty of it is if the Trumpist lawyers appeal the award and lose, then they'll also get to pay the legal fees of both the state and the city of Detroit for the appeal(s).

This couldn't happen to a nicer and more deserving pack of clowns.

  1. Actions particularly questionable ones have consequences. So here is hoping they will appeal...

  2. Except if you are suing for adding an abortion in Texas… no consequence then!
