One attorney for the former president, Tim Parlatore, publicly undermined the credibility of another Trump attorney, Joe Tacopina, who has been engaged in a media blitz this week following Mr Trump’s indictment for his role in the Stormy Daniels hush money case.
Since the interview aired on Friday, Rolling Stone has reported there is disquiet among the former president’s lawyers regarding Mr Tacopina, with anonymous sources sniping behind his back.
“He pisses off others with his antics, but he’s a blunt object that Donald Trump wants, apparently,” says one of the sources.
A third source familiar with the matter calls Tacopina “such a frickin’ idiot”.
