Former Donald Trump attorney Jenna Ellis appears to have come full circle with her contempt for the ex-president. Maybe.

Back in 2016, Ellis ripped Trump as an “idiot” and a “bully” who “cannot handle criticism” before suddenly changing her tune and backing him in that year’s election. She later became his legal representative as he sought to overturn the 2020 election following his loss to Joe Biden.

Now, Ellis is one of 18 defendants charged alongside Trump in the sprawling Georgia racketeering case — and she’s not happy that Trump isn’t funding her defense, or those of their co-defendants.

Ellis’ griping prompted former assistant attorney general for New York Tristan Snell to suggest last month that she could flip on Trump in the Georgia case:

BREAKING: Trump dumps Jenna Ellis, won’t pay any of her legal fees — because she’s been supportive of DeSantis.

Watch Ellis carefully now. When Trump cuts someone off, it’s the tipping point that results in the person flipping on Trump.

My bet: Ellis will cooperate. — Tristan Snell (@TristanSnell) August 15, 2023

On Thursday, Ellis said on her American Family Radio show that she had “great love and respect” for Trump on a personal level, but claimed she “simply can’t support him for elected office again,” citing his “malignant, narcissistic tendency to simply say that he’s never done anything wrong.”

Ellis in March was censured by a Colorado judge for spewing falsehoods about the 2020 election.

The best part about this headline, you have no idea which of his many former attorneys is going to flip. I've got four in mind right now and I know that's a low number.

FACE OF A RAPIST. Good day to remember that a jury of our peers heard Donald J. Trump out in a fair trial, and the jury concluded that the GOP's front runner for nomination to be President of our United States had indeed used physical force to insert his finger into a victim's vagina. THAT'S RAPE!
