Part of TFG’s pathology is trying to get his allies to work against each other. He had his own neighboring casinos management competing with each other, one being run by Ivana, his then wife. It’s part of the reason his casinos failed. It’s the Team of Rivals approach, except he wants them fighting it out instead of working together, so that only the “killers” who work for him survive the experience. It’s entirely possible he encouraged Lewandowski to try a coup, to shake things up.
