Could that be part of the reason Trump is struggling so much to fill out his legal team? DiGenova and Toensing, for example, were widely known to be representing another figure in the Russia investigation, Mark Corallo, a former spokesman for Trump's legal team. He was talking about the White House more broadly rather than Trump's legal team, but Trump's legal drama is just an extension of his administrative drama. Even if it's not necessarily the risk of perjury, perhaps all these lawyers see Trump's legal situation and want no part of it. Dowd isn't even the only member of Trump's legal team to worry about the prospect of perjury.
