    Rudy Giuliani was never an especially good trial attorney.... but something is wrong. He has dementia or some sort of cognitive limitation.

    He really hasn't worked much as an attorney since before he was mayor of NYC, has he? He's basically been just a full time professional politician since about 1990, as far as I can tell.

    Just another episode of Celebrity Apprentice. Asking him to pick it right back up like riding a bike after nearly 30 years away seems a tad bit optimistic.

    Very like Trump to hire the most notable name he can come up with to do the job, as opposed to finding the most competent professional.

    I knew when I saw the thread title that this was going to be sadly funny.

    Like the stormy payment stuff I think this is a staged precursor. They know more campaign collusion stuff will be coming out in the news and they send Rudy out to basically give away the news before but do it in such a clownish way it is only halfway taken seriously but potentially deflates the impact of breaking news because crazy Rudy already said it.

    Also classic goal most moving as well. Next they will say “of course Trump knew about it but he wasn’t the one who did it!”

    He knew of no meeting and no payments. He just knows we need a wall in 2019 because it worked for China and a small border in Isreal.

    Giuliani would be a dream for internal polling of "how about this nuttyz stance"... sometime I wonder if that's the role he's playing

    He's not even getting paid. He's willing to go on TV and embarrass himself publicly. He is paid with attention. That is the role he is playing.

    In short, he is a clown - for free. That is the only type of person Trump can attract at this point.

    When Mephisto ran for POTUS years ago, the people of Iowa got to know him real well -- a creepy, weird guy.

    Dude has changed. It has gotten worse. Lol

    Shed no tears for Rudolph

    I should clarify, he's not getting paid by Trump for his amazing excellent defending.

    He IS getting paid by shady foreign criminals for his access and influence over Trump - the Manafort business model

    We can only hope he ends up in the same place.

    I think it works really well. Nobody really takes Rudy seriously and casual observers don't even think of him as Trump's real lawyer. He's just a talking head that runs his mouth. Great wait to test messages and put stuff out there.
