NYT, sheesh

From a New York Times article by Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan about Donald Trump**’s lawyers:

His lawyers’ own foibles are seldom disqualifying, so long as they defend him in the manner he desires.

Foibles, do your job! But I doubt that these foibles have passed the bar. So just switch the parts:

So long as his lawyers defend him in the manner he desires, their foibles are seldom disqualifying.

Or more bluntly:

So long as his lawyers do what he wants, their foibles are seldom disqualifying.
