He does have a pair of lawyers already.

top former federal prosecutor Todd Blanche and the former Florida solicitor general Chris Kise, according to people familiar with the matter.

What he's struggling with is finding someone who is an expert in national security law, can get a security clearance and is willing to represent him.

A lawyer I guess.

Though Kise is expected to appear alongside Blanche in federal district court in Miami, he has primarily handled civil litigation for Trump since he came off the documents case last October and is not expected to be on the trial team proper, a person familiar with the matter said.
