I had never heard of an attorney privately recording his client without his knowledge. That just seems odd to me.

Fake attorney. Had no clients but Trump.

Revealing such information is an absolute ethical violation and the recording potentially is illegal, as is its use in any court. And having Lanny Davis leak it is despicable.

As i understand, one party recording of another is NOT allowed in most states. Whether that includes recording business conversations - without informing them - is very much dependent upon the state in which the second party resides.

Add in attorney-client privilege, can one side waive privilege unilaterally?

Throw-in using those tapes in a court of law. I have never even heard of that in mafioso trials. Unless Trump is two steps ahead of the law and made a tape to exonerate himself. I don’t understand why a lawyer would even bring something like that up or provide it to authorities. Unless he wants to be disbarred. It can’t be true because this is the strangest thing I have ever heard.

Seems crooked to me and like a setup for extortion.

If I had the kind of money Trump has I think I’d be setting up for a lawsuit and somebody would be losing a law license. ‘Course, no telling what Coen has on Trump.

Still think I’d be getting ready for some lawyer stew to feed the hogs.
