Donald Trump’s impeachment-trial defense lawyers have quit, CNN reports

Former President Donald Trump’s five impeachment defense attorneys have left a little more than a week before his trial is set to begin, according to people familiar with the case, amid a disagreement over his legal strategy. […]

A person familiar with the departures told CNN that Trump wanted the attorneys to argue there was mass election fraud and that the election was stolen from him rather than focus on the legality of convicting a president after he’s left office. Trump was not receptive to the discussions about how they should proceed in that regard.

If Trump wants his legal team to defend his claims of a stolen election, who else besides Sidney Powell, Rudy Giuliani, and Jenna Ellis would be up to the task?
