Why does he need to crowdfund legal defense? I thought he was hugely a billionaire and was friends with all of the best lawyers?

He didn’t get rich by paying for his lawyers himself.

His lawyers generally don't get paid at all.

He's already blown through the money he was able to funnel to himself via the presidency.
