I canāt believe Trump doesnāt have him doing the daily briefings. He makes Sarah look like an amateur.
āTruth is truth,ā Todd responded, exasperated.
āNo it isnāt truth! Truth isnāt truth!ā Giuliani said.
I would very much like to know what TF is going on with TPM readers who can see HERE that Rudy is lying or making up stuff, but somehow think Rudy is telling the truth on McGahn.
What are TMP readers so freaking DUMB?
What a voice! Gone much too soon.
Why does this clown Giuliani get so much coverage and air time? He is clearly little more than a very befuddled old man who deserves to be put out to pasture.
I watched this live today and had to toss out my burned bacon. Had only a banana for breakfast, couldnāt get anything to stay down.
Iām still sputtering, snorting and have the occasional guffaw outburst two hours later.
Donald Trump says I didnāt talk about Flynn with Comey. Comey says you did talk about. So tell me what the truth is!
Oooh, ooh! Call on me! I know the answer!!!
āTruth Isnāt Truth!ā Giuliani Asserts
Well now that certainly is a novel legal defense.
Iām longing for the good old days when the sky was blue, water was wet and the truth was the truth.
Oh dear! Are you feeling ok? Rudy TV is quite toxic, so take care.
Well what more needs be said?
A two-fur:
(1) Giuliani admits that his client the PUSA-grabber, engaged in attempted conspiracy to (a) accept valuable support from a hostile foreign government, and (b) encourage that foreign government to take further illegal acts to support Trump, including by illegal means, with the candidate expressing a willingness to conspire in those illegal acts in furtherance of their joint aims.
(2) Giuliani shows that he is a horrible age addled liar, who will say anything to the point of self-parody to try to spin Trumpās bad behavior.
Guiliani has become a meme. āTruth isnāt truth!ā
No cracked ribs yet, iāll be fine.
You just never know what manner of bat shit crazy will crawl outta Rudyās facial orifice.
Be careful of hot coffee then.
Hard to spin in a vise
So how would Giuliani, trial lawyer extraordinaire, instruct a jury to evaluate testimony from a witness who proclaims āI Swear to tell the truth, the Whole Truth, and nothing but the Truth, So Help Me Godā?
Enough with this demented fool.
The initial dangle:
āThe Crown prosecutor of Russia ā¦ offered to provide the Trump campaign with some official documents and information that would incriminate Hillary and her dealings with Russia and would be very useful to your father. This is obviously very high level and sensitive information but is part of Russia and its governmentās support for Mr. Trump.ā ā Rob Goldstone, June 3 2016
Trump Jr.'s contemporaneous response:
ā[I]f itās what you say I love it especially later in the summer.ā ā Donald Trump Jr., June 3, 2016
The offer:
āEmin asked that I schedule a meeting with you and The Russian government attorney who is flying over from Moscow for this Thursday.ā ā Rob Goldstone, June 7, 2016
Agreement:
āGreat. It will likely be Paul Manafort (campaign boss) my brother in law and me. 725 Fifth Ave 25th floor.ā ā Donald Trump, Jr., June 7, 2016
Overt act undertaken in furtherance of agreement:
Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner and Paul Manafort meet with Russians, June 9, 2016
Guiliani rewrites history:
āYou, you told me, you, you asked me, you know, did they show an intention to do anything with Russians? Well, all they knew is that a woman with a Russian name wanted to meet with them. They didnāt know she was a representative of the Russian government and indeed, sheās not a representative of the Russian government. So, this is much ado about nothing.ā ā Rudy Guiliani, August 19, 2018
