Cornyn: Giuliani ‘Not Relevant’ | Talking Points Memo

“If the impeachment managers want to rest their case on the credibility of someone who is under indictment in the Southern District of New York with extensive ties to Russian oligarchs and organized crime … then that’s their choice,” Cornyn said.

Is he talking about Chiselin’ Trump?

That dude has aged 20 years in the last two years. It is laughable and sad to see these creatures out there trying to defend their leader, you can almost see the gun barrel marks on his temple.

Poor Cronyn. He just isn’t good at lying. Nervous, stumbling over his words. Tsk, tsk. He needs to gets some tips from Trump, or maybe Mulvaney. Sad…

Rip van Cornyn must’ve just woken up from a 20-week slumber if he truly believes that.

To think that Cornyn was once a judge is frickin’ unbelievable. Judge becomes a full-fledged hack??

Trump explicitly told Jay Sekolow that it was ok with him if Dowd represented the “grifter” Parnas.

Cornyn is a guy that got elected to the Texas Supreme Court and the US Senate because he had an ( R ) next to his name. That’s it. He was as unqualified for both as an ( R ) can get. I am truly embarrassed for my state sometimes.

Please. His proper name is Boofie. Just a reminder of one of his assorted perjuries.

Psst…John…

He used to work side by side with Donald for Donald’s dad selling condos for Trump Org. DECADES ago. That’s how they met.

And the only reason Donald isn’t under indictment right now, is because he is President and the DoJ won’t even consider indicting the President.
