Former President Donald Trump's legal team got him acquitted of the charges he faced in the Senate, but days after, one of them is providing insight into the team's dysfunction.
David Schoen, one of Trump's lead attorneys for the case, criticized his former co-counselor in an interview with
Jewish Insider published on Monday, arguing that former acting Pennsylvania Attorney General Bruce Castor assumed outsize influence even though he was supposed to play a supporting role.
“[Trump’s team] asked me if I would work with [Castor], if I would take the lead and so on, but then, [Castor] would help me, and he has a firm that can help and all that,” he said. “I’m not sure that message was communicated to him clearly enough because he never seemed to quite understand that I was supposed to be the lead in the case.”
