Basically, people think Trump is going to put his lawyers on blast, to try and divert the charges away from himself. This waives his attorney-client privilege, (because it basically turns his attorney’s records into evidence, and prosecutors can inspect his attorney’s papers to see if they have him bad council,) but it could potentially land his lawyers in hot water if prosecutors discover that they did, in fact, provide bad council.
But this also means no lawyers are going to want to work with him in the future. Because he’s proven that when shit hits the fan, he’ll throw his legal council under the bus. Even if the attorneys have only done things by the book, no legal office is going to want to deal with that headache.

Huge pet peeve here, but it’s counsel not council.
