Organized crime families hire criminal defense lawyers. They do not hire lawyers with expertise in ethics, unless it has to do with business law and accounting! ;)

So he wants to go back into private practice now?
He really sees the hand writing on the wall, with the Federal Russian investigation.
This clowns in the Trump White house cannot stop lying. Lol

Russia is more a conspiracy/collusion issue than ethics.  If you want to find a reason to dispute his reasons for leaving, you would have been wiser to say it was because of the numerous mistakes and re-submissions on Kushner's applications for security clearances.

when is the last time bg did  or said anything "wiser"?

It's like using the words "honest" and "Hadji" in the same sentence.

You voted for the worst President in history.
Then you want to talk about being wise??

2) I will only note that his response has ZERO to do with the point I was making.

have a ethics lawyer?  Isn’t that like a TER lady having a bodyguard to protect her from having sex?

IF Trump is unethical as you choose to believe, the all the more need to have an ethics lawyer.  Just as the mafia has lawyers.

A TER lady does NOT want a lawyer to protect her from having sex!  That’s called counter-productive!
And IPOTUS (Illegitimate POTUS) doesn’t want a lawyer to stop him from being unethical! If Trump had a good ethics lawyer the lawyer would stop Trump from lying, grabbing pussies, getting rich from his bankruptcies while screwing his contractors etc. etc. etc.

Moron Huck, then why does the mafia lawyer not stop his boss from crime?  The keep the help around to make sure they don't get caught, or convicted.

apologies to Mr Huck - it is M Johnson I am addressing

...Duane I have no dog in this spat between you & M Johnson other than to say this kind of shit fighting spoils the threads discussion Quality.

...his boss from committing crimes.  His job is to defend the Mafioso when he's is charged with crimes.  

A White House ethics lawyer Is supposed to stop the POTUS from committing ethics violations.  That's what previous administrations have properly used them for.  But Trump does use them like mafia lawyers - he uses ethics lawyers to defend him from charges of ethics violations.  A White House ethics attorney is supposed to be a consigliere, not a defense attorney.   Capisce?

Quiz:

A)  the ethics lawyer quit because Trump wouldn’t listen to him because Trump wants/has to be unethical.  (It’s due to his narcissism disorder)

B) The ethics lawyer was a figurehead and didn’t say/do anything by Trump’s design.  Trump wanted to claim that this lawyer was keeping him ethical.  The ethics lawyer hired his own ethics lawyer who advised him to “quit because people will see you’re not doing a good job.

This is a close call, but, I vote for (A).  

"In this context, Shah's response is as illuminating as it is seemingly befuddled. It's a bright red flare revealing the White House ethics office to be either inept or indifferent. That office's failure to fulfill as basic an ethics function as collecting financial disclosures indicates either alternative is possible, but my money is on malignant indifference to ethics."
