8. They were thinking Trump and fascism are unstoppable

and that they had better get positioned for a place at the Nazi table.

Time will tell if they are right. In the short term, they were facing threats to cut off their security clearances, which would effectively be a death sentence for a firm that handles much Federal business.

The irony is that such actions by Trump are blatantly illegal. And being a direct assault on the practice of law, there was a good chance the SCOTUS would side with the law firms. But by their actions, they said they didn't believe in our legal system any more, yet they still expect clients to pay $1000/hr for them to do lawyer things.

Let's all hope every one of the capitulators ends up just like Arthur Andersen after helping Enron run their graft.
