Non-Sequiturs
Non-Sequiturs: 05.24.17
* Not that I have any sympathy for lawyers who agree to represent Trump, but he must be the world’s worst client. [Levinson and Stefani]
* Somebody sent a mailer trying to shame people into voting. The letters included the names of their neighbors and whether or not they voted. Nobody knows who sent the letters. Other than that, no concerns. [Los Angeles Times]

Dave Chapelle is next.” [TMZ]
* To be honest, I forgot that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau existed. [Wall Street Journal]
* Playboy model Dani Mathers pleaded no contest to misdemeanor invasion of privacy for body-shaming a woman at her gym. The system worked, I believe. [Eyewitness News]
* Not legal, but there’s a chance some people working late haven’t seen this yet and, well, seems to me that your clients can spot you the two minutes.
