Arjun Appadurai’s Analysis of Trump’s Legal Strategy
• Arjun Appadurai, Emeritus Professor of Media, Culture and Communication at New York University, analyzes Trump’s legal strategy.
• Identifies patterns in the US legal system, including high salaries and assets of top lawyers, a disproportionate number of revolving door veterans, and attorneys willing to take on controversial cases.
• Appadurai argues that these lawyers are personally wealthy, have moved through numerous revolving doors, and have monetized their ties to influence-brokers, lobbyists, and elected politicians.
• Appadurai discusses Trump’s legal strategy, including over 4,000 suits since the 1990s, ranging from defamation to breach of contract, tax fraud, unmet contractual obligations, sexual exploitation, and inciting mass violence.
• Appadurai criticizes Trump’s misuse of the Constitution and his cynicism about the law as the glue of contractual stability and social reciprocity.
• Many of Trump’s 4,000+ deals were settled “out of court”, with optimal money gains for Trump and minimum concessions of guilt on his side.
• Appadurai concludes that Trump’s legal strategy has been a consistent feature of sabotage and subversion of the law, affecting American universities, Congress, and the Constitution.
