There are so many holes in that executive privilege claim I don’t know where to start, and I’m not even a legal/constitutional scholar.

Yes, Executive privilege is supposed to shield close confidential discussions with TOP aides. Certainly NOT a prosecutor who is obligated to nail you and has given you Miranda warnings.

I have litigated successfully against the assertion of claims of executive privilege used to prevent public disclosure by the Governor, at the time, of the State of RI. Executive privilege keeps information secret regarding why a particular policy decision was made by the executive branch. In our case, we showed that the information we sought had nothing to do with a decision thus executive privilege did not attach. In regard to FJB, the tape of the interview and its contents had nothing to do with A POLICY DECISION, therefore Executive Privilege does not apply. PERIOD.
