I'll Bet Rudy Giuliani Is Angry as Hell

Last edited Sat Dec 10, 2016, 10:44 PM - Edit history (1)

Did Rudy Giuliani want the Secretary of State in Trump’s Cabinet? You know he did. It wouldn’t surprise me a bit it someone has secret video of Rudy on his knees kissing Donald’s feet as he begged for the job. In the latest version of the reality show, “The Apprentice, Phase 3 – The Cabinet Picks”, Giuliani made a public play for the job. In spectacle rarely seen in this setting allies like Kellyanne Conway publicly lobbied for him. In an interview, Giuliani himself strongly implied he was the best qualified.

Now we know why Rudy, formally idolized as “America’s Mayor” for his service in New York City during the 9/11 crisis, took on the lowly job of being the chief Trump-plainer during The Donalds’s tumultuous Presidential campaign. Regardless how outrageous Trumps latest behavior, statement, or Tweet, there was Rudy Giuliani on CNN turning himself into a human pretzel as he tried to explain away his friend’s ridiculous behavior. Surely he knew that everyone was aware that he was spouting BS of the highest order. In the wake of the Access Hollywood tape reveal, there was the former federal prosecutor doing verbal gymnastics on the cable news show trying to defend the indefensible and labeling the numerous women who accused Trump of sexual assaults as opportunistic liars. Surely Giuliani didn’t continually act the fool just because Trump was his long time buddy. ‘

You know that the subject had to have come between Trump and Giuliani early on. It was plain that Rudy believe the job was his for the taking, his just reward for playing the part of Trump’s court jester. There had to be a reason for his confidence.

Giuliani was a close confident and advisor of Trump from very early stages of the campaign. Time and time again he must have watched Trump lie on every conceivable subject and make promises to his supporters that he never had any intention of keeping. Surely he realized that Trump told so many lies that he couldn’t keep them all straight, so contradicted himself all of the time. Why then did Rudy Giuliani believe that any promises Trump made to him would be kept?

....he is not as rich as he pretends to be and he has spent a lot of his readily available cash on his campaign. Word is that Trump is in debt up to his eyeballs. Giuliani is already getting plenty of money from foreign countries for his "consulting" work. Conflicts of interests would have dogged his confirmation hearings if Trump would have nominated for SoS.

....Giuliani apparently knew that Comey was going to release "the investigation has been reopened" before it was sent to Congress.

But at least we got a real good look at how nasty he really is.

I don't see "red state deplorables" getting the boot, but I do see a growing anger from that group as Trump continues to nominate big business leaders and Putin lovers to his cabinet. Trump promised to be the champion of the workers and he is putting their enemies in charge and people in red states continue to see Russia and and Putin as evil.

as we speak. He's as vindictive as Trump; he won't take this without striking back. After he "voluntarily" withdrew from consideration, I can picture him brooding, getting angrier and angrier. All that sucking up! All that kissing ass!

He and Mitt should join ranks. All Mitt got from his frog leg dinner with Trump was a pathetic photo.

Giuliani, Romney, etc., etc. - all just bit players destined to be fired early in the latest Trump reality show. All Trump cares about is keeping the spotlight on himself.

One would think that that would be a natural given his background. However, he has been doing a lot of consulting (lobbying) with his firm for foreign countries and I guess he wanted to help out his foreign friends a lot more than he wanted to walk the straight and narrow as AG.

If Ghouliani sang like a canary on Tramp's treasonous ties with the Russkies--in full, lurid detail--to get even for not naming him AG.

At least some in Congress are going to push against this new dude. Maybe it won't be him either.
