Crazy-car attorney John Eastman, the report noted,"all but admitted that didn't work" and likely would fail 9-0 if before the Supreme Court."Team Normal" was the phrase former campaign manager Bill Stepien used to distinguish professional aides from the Trump"Clown Car" -- a phrase dubbed by former Attorney General Bill Barr.
