President Trump and Michael Cohen totally trolled the media.

A secretly recorded conversation between President Trump and his longtime lawyer Michael Cohen was reportedly deemed privileged material by the special master reviewing a trove of documents and electronic files seized from Cohen by the FBI in April.
Vanity Fair’s Emily Jane Fox told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow on Friday that a source familiar with the situation told her the tape was protected by attorney-client privilege, “but the president’s attorneys waived the privilege.”

“Effectively they waived privilege today by speaking about what was on the tape,” Fox said.
Yeah, that's not how any of this works

The privilege belongs to the lawyer?
Sounds backwards.

"Belongs" to the client, can be invoked by both, can only be waived by the client.
An attorney doing something in an attempt to "waive" privilege isn't doing anything of the sort; they are simply breaching their duty of confidentiality.
And while I appreciate that laymen use privilege and confidentiality interchangeably, they aren't technically the same thing.

I appreciate the technical clarification.

By allegedly leaking the tape, Maddow said, Trump’s team took away power from Cohen to offer investigators “something really valuable.”
These people, good golly...
what do we do with them?
They assume guilt without any evidence, heck they don't even have the tape...otherwise they would be playing it over and over...
More horrible hackish behavior from mad maddow

Trump just owns them
Obviously they are trolling and they have the real tapes of AG Schneidermans abuse

It's something I've found myself proselytizing on a bit lately, so this is a c/p of a post I wrote a few months ago:
quote:
And just because I referenced the distinction: as a technical matter, confidentiality and privilege aren't the same thing. In ethics class in law school, they are generally distinguished as the "sword" and the "shield". The duty of confidentiality refers to the concept that the attorney can not give out of his own volition (sword) information gained during the representation of their client. On the other hand, the privilege is a shield which the attorney can use if someone tries to compel the attorney to turn over information through some legal process.
So, in short, if I blab about one of my clients over drinks, I've violated attorney client confidentiality. If I am called as a witness against one of my former clients, I can (and should) invoke attorney client privilege in refusing to testify.

the tape is like Comey's notes: exonerates Trump.
but they are too stupid to fully realize it. they are still working on the elevator Trump video.

I don't think you understand what they're talking about. You really think Cohen and trump are still working together?

It's great, the msm is breathlessly reporting "omg, there's a tape, we have a tape! We got heem!"
Regular Americans "What's on the tape?"
Trump acting legally and appropriately....
MSN "But muh Russians, muh stormy, omg!"

Rudy fricked up by allowing an exhonorating tape to be released showing that Trump did nothing wrong AND the FBI "Clean team" cant be trusted...?

Kinda like someone who had to have a Beer Summit, and if only he had had a son, etc., etc., etc., etc., ad nauseum. The Clown who always jumped to conclusions...the wrong conclusions.
Talk about, whistling, and tossing a ball to be chased. The Former faker in residence sent his minions out to cause mayhem across the nation for no good reason. And his little brain dead Igor's are still chasing fake tosses and destroying the nation.

The clean team deemed it priveledged, did they leak the story to the times?
