After a year of defending the President, Rudy Giuliani is going on offense against Trump's political opponents

Washington It was two weeks after the release of the Mueller report, and Rudy Giuliani was eager to chat. As President Donald Trump's personal lawyer, Giuliani has spent much of the past year going on TV to defend his client on a number of fronts—casting doubt on the special counsel's investigation, taking shots at Trump's former fixer Michael Cohen, and generally serving as the President's chief public defender.

Now, at 8 pm on a Thursday night, on the phone from New York, Giuliani wanted to talk about something else entirely: Joe Biden.The former vice president and current frontrunner for the Democratic presidential nomination could pose the biggest threat to President Donald Trump's re-election effort. And Giuliani was looking to take some shots— not for any policies Biden has or even the recent controversy over Biden's physical interactions with women.

Giuliani: I never said there was no collusion 01:09 Now, as Trump and his team begin switching from defense to offense, with an eye to the 2020 campaign, Giuliani is also shifting tactics, and taking an active role in prosecuting a public case against Trump's political opponents. The outspoken former New York mayor operates from a unique position as the President's personal lawyer, set apart from both the White House and official campaign.

Who really cares about this when Trump and company have violated and ignored everything sacred to our US vonstitution

RudyGiuliani will fabricate dubious ‘head-scratchers’ cherry-picking principles to advocate during presidential “garbagetime”, in hopes voting 🇺🇸 will sympathize w/realDonaldTrump’s reelection ploy to escape prosecution while blaming the MuellerReport not himself for failing.

One time your had respect.. now.. your a clown for trump.. I feel sorry for you.

Stick to the POLYGRIP, Rudy!!

Great

He is good at it. Ask the Italian mafia.

He is good at it.

I thought Rudy was DJT’s lawyer, not his attack dog. Rudy, you’re fading fast in my respect chronicle.

POS

😂😂😂

Really? Is it because he’s so credible?

It is sad that his career has nose-dived so far that these egregious lies and misrepresentations are all this man has left. There something to be said to retiring rather than sticking on so long that your ruin your reputation.

THIS MAN OR MAD DOG...IS A SICK PUPPY🐶

Good. It is past time to expose all corruption of the past administration.

How about Trump's good friends Manafort & Putin's meddling in Ukraine? He shouldn't go there.

There’s a Clinton Ukraine story as well. Just wait.

Here comes Rudy with the enemies list. Seems like yesterday when Nixon was doing the same thing. How little things change!

So... cnn invents a story

The man is past his time ,move on.This isn't news. Reduce media coverage on Trump and his cronies. Positive news works for me .

Hasn’t he become totally irrelevant at this point? The guy is crazy.

The Biden/Ukraine saga....is being suppressed from the American people by the media....anyone who raises this issue....is viewed as attacking opponents....why are some politicians wrapped in cotton wool by the media....no matter how suspicious their actions maybe!!!!

Anyone who still believes a word that comes out of this crooked lawyers mouth deserves all the pain and suffering evolution has to offer.

And he should, disgraceful witch hunt! releasetheFISAfiles

Rudi is Trump's lawyer....he has every RIGHT to go after people who used a FAKE KOMPROMAT DOSSIER against his client....any lawyer in Rudi's situation would do the same....if FAKE MATERIAL EVIDENCE was used against his client....surely he has to question its legality...STANDARD!!

Why is RudyGiuliani so eager to lose the last vestiges of decency for Trump

What was Biden trying to cover up in the UK ? What was his involvement in getting a top prosecutor ousted

Giuliani is a joke!

Boy it's time for Giuliani retire, he's old news and not good news for the President. Attack ads today are passe.

Does anyone other than comedians care what this Putz has to say?

Rudy go buy yourself some beer & attend the Yankee game. Stop confusing our citizens.

'I think a lot of his gaffes come from the fact that *Giuliani's* not as smart as a lot of the people he's dealing with.'

Roy Blunt's good in that role, too.

.funder Donald Trump and his clones practicing whack A Mole Politics and Voodoo lawyering they want us to go out of our minds. All Gaslighters impeachthemall MaxBoot TheResistanceIsUnited Morning_Joe maggieNYT

This rabid attack dog got rabies.

Lying fake news CNN

Draft dodger's have to stick together!

Go Rudy!! Time to fight back.

He’s much smarter then TRUMP!

The end of the GOP in the United States of America. The voters won't tolerate these political abuses from them. RULE OF LAW is our Constitutional Republic.

LIKE THE TRUMP RUSSIA STORY

Mayor Giuliani is a good spreder of propaganda for 45 lies bs lies bs.!!!!!

Good to hear! ! FISA warrant investigation! !

How does anyone with functional ears and a pair of eyes trust any of this lot?

No

Best thing that Biden can do is be open about his son's dealings then turn it on Trump and compare it to Trump's business with Russia, Saudi Arabia etc. Disclosure of Trump taxes and testimony from Deutsche Bank will make Biden's case.

Stop stop stop bringing Giuliani on to speak. He lies more than trump in protecting him. He is nothing. And stop w/ KellyannePolls too.

Is he immune to defamation lawsuits in this capacity? He often makes statements.

That should be fun!

What a clown.

RudyGiuliani doesn't know his ass from his elbow.

The wretched protecting the vile. Crazy how people blindly follow these wicked people.

BUFFOON

AMEN FRIEND!! In politics you do need a conscience of some kind wouldn't you agree! Have a great day! 😀

Started reading this and quickly realized I don’t care what Rudy has to say about anything.

Lol liberals need to stop the non-stop temper tantrum and accept President Trump won.

All he needs to do is show people his bottom row of teeth , and they’ll run in fear.

Good. Stay on offense.

Why is old fool still talking?

The only way RG could hurt Biden is to become his private counsel?

RudyGiuliani...

Isn't that fake news network cNN in deep financial woes? 180 trillion in debt or something like that? What was it? 100-300 layoffs as well? Oh and those cNN ratings diving fast into the ground. CNN will be non-existent soon! Thats good news for real news!

How I feel about ole' Rudy

Does anyone really care what Giuliani says, does or thinks? I doubt it.

How the mighty have fallen. Anyone who has associated themselves with trump had ruined their career.

He just a discredited jerk? BOYCOTT EVERYTHING Israeli BoycottEurovision2019 Apartheid

Someone has a lot on him...

Well turns out Rudy was right about the collusion as well as the obstruction. Have at it.

It about time!! Time to investigate the media also for all your lies about the president!! ..!.. CNN enemy of the people!!

Rudy is Satan.

Whatever Giuliani says, Trump has done worse. Every time. Guaranteed. I think somebody needs to check Grandpa Giuliani into a retirement home.

Fruity G is back!

💗💗love Rudy💗💗RudyGiuliani

Trump attacks potential 2020 rival Joe Biden in market-moving tweets about China trade negotiationsTwo tweets from the president Wednesday showed that Trump's attention is on Democratic 2020 frontrunner Joe Biden even as he prepares for the most crucial trade talks of his presidency. This Chinese asset wants to be President. I don’t think so. Lots of fun watching the machines pour in. As soon as the SPX goes somewhere, I get the cue to check my Twitter feed.

Mike Pence accuses centrist Joe Biden of 'advocating a socialist agenda' like other 2020 DemocratsPence also appeared to lash out at Biden for his recent comments downplaying China's economic threat in a CNBC interview. THE REPUBLI-CONS HAVE DEMONIZED THE WORD 'SOCIALISM' FOR 90 YEARS, TRY RUNNING THIS COUNTRY WITHOUT SOCIALISM. THE MILITARY IS THE BIGGEST SOCIALIST PROGRAM THERE IS.!! Would love to see The Pres and his peeps tout their own accomplishments instead of attacking their opponents. They have some good stuff going, right? One wouldn't think so at this point. As opposed to his theocratic fascist one right?

How Joe Biden could win the battle but lose the war to Trump in 2020Cook Political Report's David Wasserman is challenging two broadly-accepted understandings of the 2020 presidential race: that Joe Biden's moderation muddies his chance to lead a left-leaning Democratic Party, while his broad acceptability and blue-collar appeal makes him the strongest Democrat against Trump. Who? Biden? Just wait for bombshell his dealing in Ukraine. If anyone truly believes we should go back to Obama's apology tour, giving away manufacturing, not being energy independent, handcuffing our military and opening our borders is a friggin fool no matter how you 'FEEL' about Trump.

Trump attacks Biden despite Kushner directive to lay off Dem fieldTargeting specific Democratic presidential hopefuls was at best a waste of time — and could even be counterproductive, Kushner warned Trump campaign officials Trump has so little impulse control and probably just as limited regard for the advice of those around him. He sees Biden as a threat and that for now is his obsession.

Potential Iranian attack on U.S. forces led to Middle East deployments, source saysA White House decision to dispatch an aircraft carrier to send a message to Iran followed “clear indications” that Iranian and Iranian proxy forces were preparing to possibly attack U.S. forces in the region, a defense official told the Associated Press. Complete BS. Is trump going to start a war with Iran just to distract from the obstruction charges Mueller laid out in his report?
