I'm not pointing it out to suggest that it's necessarily 100% accurate - but Chuck thinks it is and it colors his view of Jimmy. As such, Chuck's actions and distrust of Jimmy isn't driven by malevolent motives, but rather genuine concern over the well-being of his silk stocking law practice.

And as noted way back when...he was right w/r/t to Jimmy's underhanded dealings, something that Kim is now also seeing surface with regularity.

Jimmy's a sympathetic figure and as you noted, he's damn charming. But he's NOT right for a large firm and frankly he's probably not cut out for the practice of law. You can't have a legal system full of guys doing what Jimmy does; the thing will fall apart.

Chuck's right - giving Jimmy a law degree is giving a chimp a machine gun. The dude just refuses to straighten up and fly right.
When the going gets tough, you don't want a criminal lawyer. You want a criminal lawyer, knowwhatimsayin?
