Discussion: Giuliani Plans To Leave Trump's Legal Team After Russia Probe 'Cleanup'

OT but just seeing an image of trump speaking at the Omaha Beach cemetery at Colleville-sur-Mer, France is enough to ruin my day.

I’m good with that.

I find it highly implausible that Giuliani did anything for Trump that could be described as “legal work”.

I’m reminded of Lady Macbeth trying to wash the blood off her hands. Guiliani will have a tough time finishing Trump’s cleanup.

Out, damned spot! Out I say!

They desperately cling to the hope that by making believe that William Barr’s great deception is true, that the so-called president’s lard will no longer be in the fire.
The notion of Rudy Giuliani cleaning anything up is farcical.

In other words, mission accomplished. He saved his ass from the prison he so richly deserves. How he hasn’t been crucified for all the inside info fed to him (instigated by him) during the campaign I will never understand.

The best quip about Rubes on these boards went something like this: “Rudy is such a great lawyer, he could get a jaywalking citation reduced to capital murder.”

Seen him slip the noose too many times…Until he is verifiably expunged from all things body politic, I just can’t get excited about it.
Post facto…whole different dance.
Here’s to hoping for an extended period of dancing and merriment!

But here is what is puzzling…Emmett Flood is apparently also vacating his position on the Trump legal team. So it gives a strong indication that they are decamping. One would assume that the reason for that is, they no longer believe Trump is in any legal jeopardy and/or impeachment jeopardy.

Its even odder, because the subpoena fights are just getting underway, and so far, the early victories are going for the Dems.

And his Proctologist.

Well, to be fair, he probably didn’t get paid, either. Given Trump’s well known proclivities.

OT- I finished watching When They See Us last night. I don’t believe that either DA Robert Morgenthau or Trial ADA Elizabeth Lederer deserve the benign treatment they got in the Series. Shit, in criminal conspiracies, you are considered involved unless you did something to affirmatively stop the conspiracy. All of the Detectives and ADA’s involved in this were complicit. Even the one portrayed at the end who got to do the Vacatur of the Convictions. She was involved early on and realized what Fairstein and the Detectives were doing was wrong and was not pursuing the actual rapist whose semen and DNA evidence was found. And the interrogation method is called The Reid Method, the one that has resulted in a rash of false confessions over decades now. The Reid consultants have made millions of dollars from tax payers training Police Department to use coercive interrogation methods.

Given Rudy’s skill at his duties so far, I imagine the start of an impeachment inquiry will also be part of the “clean up”, but I’m just spitballing here.

Of course he won’t go quietly, but who going to care about him complaining that Trump’s conviction and imprisonment is unfair.

So he’s got a job the rest of his life?

There may be another notable factor… Dowd’s nefarious, ominous phone message may put at least ONE Trump lawyer on the wrong side of the bar, maybe Rudy’s gettng out now before some of his illegal lawyering is exposed? I’m just sayin’…

That pic looks familiar… reminds me of my mischievious youth… we used to do that kind of damage with M-80’s and cherry-bombs.

Not hearing anything about the rebuttal to Mueller’s report that Rudy said was far along before the report was issued. Still waiting, Rudy. Your “work” can’t be finished.
