Former President Donald Trump claimed Sidney Powell was “never” his attorney in a social media post Sunday, three days after she pleaded guilty in the Georgia election subversion case.
Any discussion of planned or ongoing criminal activity was never covered in the first place. But, just because she flipped, doesn’t mean that any communication outside that wouldn’t be covered. If she was acting as his attorney, that discussion would still be privileged. However, if this statement by Trump pisses her off enough she could possibly use it and throw him under the bus with that information which, even though not directly criminal, could still be damaging to him.
