Giuliani Laments Only Having ‘Five Friends Left’ | Talking Points Memo

I was thinking the same thing, but we are dealing with Rudy’s obvious drinking problem, then reminded myself sometimes a drunken butt dial is just a drunken butt dial.

More intriguing: He still has enough functioning brain cells to count to five?

Fun Fact: When Ghouliani “thinks” you can hear the synapses firing. It sounds just like Jiffy Pop when it first starts popping.

“Mayor-Governor privilege”? Which ass did he pull that out of?

These crooks claim privilege over anything. They really want us to believe that they are completely immune from the law. Jesus.

It’s circular. If he had more friends, some of them might counsel Guliani to stay clear of Trump. But he flew too close to Trump, and so lost friends, some of whom could have told him to steer clear of Trump. And so on.

…which recalls when he privately asked Giuliani to call off the city’s 2001 mayoral election for the purpose of remaining in office in the wake of the 9/11 attacks.

Pataki asked Giuliani to call it off the election? Isn’t it the other way around?

I think this is more likely.

Anyone who says Giuliani can count to 5 better show evidence. And I’m not talking some deep fake video evidence.

Rudy’s finding moving into close Trump orbit is hard on his social life.
All those people who shrink from counting the silver after your visits apparently just stop having you over.
Sad.

Following @oistein and @daveminnj the count is down to 2.

So long as Trump is in the White House and Barr is the AG they are immune from Federal law.
