If competent lawyers were still willing to work with him someone probably would've told him this is what he's actually suggesting with this statement. But unfortunately for Trump, he doesn't pay people. Everyone knows it. And nobody with half a shred of common sense or dignity will work for him.

I agree, but that wouldn't stop his defense team from making the argument.

"She was never my lawyer, but we still have attorney client privilege so the prosecutors aren't allowed to have her testify against me or give any evidence!"

  • Trump, likely, once he realizes that his statement removes any attorney client privilege claims.

Other comments I read said that's not applicable to this case anyways, unsure exactly how it goes but thought I'd mention it also unsure if it has anything to do with her plea deal since she has to testify.

This is correct. Both Chesebro & Powell pled guilty to crimes relating to a criminal conspiracy where the crimes were commited in their capacity as attorneys. Therefore, the attorney client privilege is waived.

If Rudy said it, though, do we really know it was the truth? It could have been the Vodka talking.

Did he ever actually sign a contract though? He says lots of shit, most of it wrong, lies and/or stupid.

Before Seth Meyers pointed it out this last week, I didn’t really notice Rudy taking forever opening that bottle of water while Powell was talking crazy, but now it’s all I can see.
