Rudy "Ghouliani" Giuliani, the bumbling TV lawyer for unindicted co-conspirator and crime family boss Donald "Rump" Trump, was on some Sunday talk shows yesterday, and he, let us say, did his client no favors. On ABC, he said that while Rump had changed his stories multiple times about the hush money payments, it was fine because he "wasn't under oath." He went on to say that Rump was having conversations about the Trump Tower Moscow deal into November 2016, when it had been thought that the conversations stopped in January 2016. On Chris Wallace's Fux program, he was pressed on whether Rump knew about the hush money payments and responded, "whether it happened or it didn't happen, it's not illegal", prompting an irritated Wallace to say, "I'm asking you for the truth." (Cue the Cruise - Nicholson exchange in "A Few Good Men"). Here's a typical clip of Ghouliani, the "the truth isn't truth" guy, dropping a big, er, egg on Rump's "no collusion" lie:

We're so happy to see Rump represented in the manner he deserves.
