“Every time I turn around, Rudy’s on another TV show,” he told CNN. “He and I could have a conversation, and then I turn on the television and he could be doing something else.”

PRO TIP - You’re going to need a lawyer after you get in bed with Rudy.

It’s lawyers, all the way down.

Sale specializes in white collar crime, and is a long-time friend of Giuliani’s.

“We’re just starting to analyze what position we should take,” Sale told Politico.

How about the mouth closed position, hmm? Do us all a favor, please, and start with that one.

So Rudy’s got a lawyer. Who’s next? Pompeo, Barr, Mulvaney, or a wild card? Act fast! Last one gets Michael Cohen

When I was in grade school we did regular “duck and cover” drills. It must have worked because I haven’t died in a nuclear attack.

On a more serious note, temporary insanity is a defense plea but there’s no reason you can’t use it to explain why you undertook his representation.
