What happens to law firms that cower and cave to Donald Trump?

 
They become Trump's peons.

Michael S. Schmidt, Matthew Goldstein, and Maggie Haberman report:
The firms either declined to comment or did not respond to requests for comment. The New York Times reported last week that Kirkland & Ellis and another firm that had settled with Mr. Trump, Skadden Arps, had been connected with the Commerce Department about working on trade deals for the government, but that it was unclear whether they were being paid or working for free as part of the arrangements they had struck with the president. 
For Paul Weiss, the arrangement is a dramatic turn from where it stood during Mr. Trump’s first administration, when it prided itself on fighting him in court. The firm has also had a long history of fund-raising for Democratic candidates.
