"Trump Lawyer Marc Kasowitz Threatens Stranger in Emails: 'Watch Your Back , Bitch'" (link: www.propublica.org/article/marc-kasowitz-trump-lawyer-threat-emails-maddow) A snippet, but do read the whole thing! The exchange is really hard to believe, but apparently it is real.
Pfft. Big deal. We lawyers write this kind of thing all the time when someone criticizes us.
Not.
This is just not the way anyone who represents the President in any way, shape or form should act under any circumstances. Or the way any lawyer should act, ever. If I were one of Kasowitz's clients, I'd run far and fast.
(As for his "it was ten p.m. and I'd had a long day" excuse? Pfft. I've worked more 100 hour weeks than I can count. I was at the office 72 straight hours one horrible week as a junior associate, with only a couple of catnaps at my desk to get me through. I know stress. Yeah, not an excuse. He's an asshole.
The real kicker is that the other guy's emails were reasonably civil.)
Marc Kasowitz, President Trump’s personal attorney on the Russia case, threatened a stranger in a string of profanity-laden emails Wednesday night.
The man, a retired public relations professional in the western United States who asked not to be identified, read ProPublica’s story this week on Kasowitz and sent the lawyer an email with the subject line: “Resign Now.’’
Kasowitz replied with series of angry messages sent between 9:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. Eastern time. One read: “I’m on you now. You are fucking with me now Let’s see who you are Watch your back , bitch.”
In another email, Kasowitz wrote: “Call me. Don’t be afraid, you piece of shit. Stand up. If you don’t call, you’re just afraid.” And later: “I already know where you live, I’m on you. You might as well call me. You will see me. I promise. Bro.”
