Trump’s statement that Sydney Powell was not his lawyer seems to mean that (a) he cannot assert attorney client privilege and (b) he cannot assert any defense related to reliance on attorney advice.

@jackiegardina people who think they have the gotcha when Trump makes statements like this underestimate just how mealy mouthed the guy is.

He'll just say the opposite as it suits him, or he'll say whatever garbage manages to flow out of his brain at any particular point, that is barely coherent English.

It's like Calvinball. You can't expect him to abide by any particular standards outside of the ones a system will impose on him.
