What the heck did Rudy Giuliani just do?
For a minute there, we thought Rudy Giuliani might have something to say, and we got excited. Whenever he opens his mouth these days, Donald Trump’s ugly secrets tend to leak out. So we got excited tonight when Rudy perked up on Twitter and announced that he had a “Very exciting project underway.” The trouble: well, we’re not even sure what to make of this.
Rudy’s full tweet was “Very exciting project underway! Stay tuned.” He then attached a link to his official Facebook page. But if you click through, you find a mostly barren page that hasn’t had any posts in more than a week. So where is Rudy’s new project? It can’t be his Facebook page itself; he launched that several weeks ago while incorrectly declaring that he was the former U.S. Assistant Attorney General and a current “Government Official.” So what just happened?
Apparently Rudy Giuliani had the equivalent of a Twitter fart. The responses to his nonexistent announcement of nothing were less than kind. One respondent asked, “You’re being fitted for your orange jumpsuit?” Another added, “My guess is the only exciting project you’re looking at is making license plates in the local penitentiary.”
At this point Rudy Giuliani is just a sad punchline, a fading stooge stomping his feet incoherently while waiting for his inevitable arrest to come. Considering the extent to which Lev Parnas keeps incriminating Rudy, you’d think Rudy would have something to say about it in response. Instead he’s reduced to announcing a phantom new project, and steering people to an empty page.
