Admitting you committed a crime is not going to work out for you at trial...
"So when you said you 'did it for your country', isn't that an admission?"
". . ."
Next question would be: “Which country?”
Logically that would be Mother Russia, since no other country has benefited as much.
Oh shit wrong Georgia!
It's already been to trial and he was found guilty of defaming the two election workers (he didn't even put in a valid defence).
That wasn't the CRIMINAL trial though, that is still coming.
You don't want to be admitting crimes ahead of potential jail time, especially when the bar raises from "preponderance of evidence" (civil trial) to "beyond reasonable doubt" (criminal trial).
From the article:
"I did it all for my country because I knew something my fellow countrymen didn't know, and that is that we were on the verge of electing a 30-year career criminal as the President of the United States, and if you do that, you're going to rot from the head down."
What a fucking idiot.
Trump has been a criminal for much longer than that
Absolutely!
Does the Trump country club know any other rhetorical tricks? Or just projection?
Fake News. I’ve gotta admit, Fake News was brilliant strategy, if sowing seeds of doubt into the election process was the goal.
That is all they need. There could be multi-angle cameras that record their hate speech, and all they have to do to answer to it is say Fake News.
Fake News! I never said that they should “fire up the ovens”. And if I did, it was not referring to any one specific group of people. And if I actually was referring to specific groups of people, I was just saying what you all think. And if you don’t think that, then you are probably an agent of either the FBI or IRS/ANTIFA.
Edit to fix punctuation.
Ah yes. How could I forget? Perhaps with a significant head injury. 🥸
People like Giuliani, Trump, Netanyahu, etc. habitually conflate their own self-interest with the interest of their country.
Though it’s written “conflate”, it’s actually pronounced “willfully misrepresent”
And sometimes it's spelled "covfefe".
It's a tricky pronunciation because that 'c' is silent.
L'État, c'est moi.
"Did it for my country" - translation: "Did it for myself"
His country is not the US
So that's cool and all (well not really), but the time to raise a defense is at court. Of course, they don't simply let you say things, you have to produce the discovery materials.
What's that? That would be incredibly damning? So just take the verdict and whine? Sounds about right.
that country would be Russia, and they are grateful Rudy
Lol. Welcome to the "find out" part of the story Rudy.
Get fucked
To your country, Rudy. You did it to your country.
Just because you say you did it for your country, doesn't make it good.
Like the shit I took this morning, I did that for my country.
“I am a proven traitor to America and attempted to oppress the will of its people because I am an American patriot and I love my country!”
This is the type of dumbassery that all the backwoods Cletus’es eat up. Guaranteed to earn his master a few extra votes.
“I am a proven traitor to America and attempted to oppress the will of its people because I am an American patriot and I love my country!”
Secedes from Union
Ok so now pay up
Not even his supporters are going to remember him as anything but a penis butler for Trump.
To MAGA their country, their America, is only for wealthy, white, male landowners. Nobody else matters in their view. Read any statement from tr*mp and team with this in mind and you'll understand their context. These people believe that the white man was God's gift to the New World, they are owed this and how dare we disagree!
Tbf, it's the same for the preamble.
That poor poor victim, you see he had to overthrow democracy and frame innocent people because he didn't like the next president.
On his Sunday WABC radio program, Giuliani congratulated himself for a “brilliant legal move” because he recommended that then-President Donald Trump take his rigged election claims to state legislatures instead of the courts after the 2020 presidential vote.
Incriminating yourself on your own radio show is more brilliant still.
I’d love to hear Rudy taken apart by Al Franken.
nothing is better for america than undermining democratic processing
Well, good for him for finally finding that hill to die on.
So, you know, you can die now.
Giuliani congratulated himself for a "brilliant legal move".
Ok buddy.
Is Rudy a Russian citizen?
Rossini's is gross and you should feel bad
Yeah, fuck that guy.
Wear a condom first
can we let a future cell mate have a crack at it first?
How many pounds of flesh we taking from him?
296.... his flesh isn't worth that much.
What country is that? Russia?
Exactly. The game plan was always to sell us out to Russia.
Didn't Trump suggest hanging people like this?
He did it all for the nookie.
