Rudy Giuliani posts bizarre tweet, deletes it
Gordon Sondland’s testimony today assured that several people will go to prison. Donald Trump is one of them. Mike Pompeo is one of them. Rudy Giuliani is absolutely one of them. Not only did Sondland bury Rudy with his testimony, a desperate Republican House Counsel then also tried to bury Rudy, in a last ditch effort at insulating Trump.
Not surprisingly, Rudy Giuliani was a bit less than happy to see his life flash before him today. You wouldn’t be thrilled either, if you just realized you’re going to spend the rest of your life rotting in solitary confinement. Right around the time Rudy was being pronounced dead at the scene, he hopped on Twitter to signal his displeasure at the manner in which he was being buried.
Rudy posted this tweet: “I came into this at Volker’s request. Sondland is speculating based on VERY little contact. I never met him and had very few calls with him, mostly with Volker. Volker testified I answered their questions and described them as my opinions, NOT demands. I.E., no quid pro quo!”
The trouble here is that Rudy has insisted all along that everything he did in Ukraine was to expose his legal client Donald Trump’s supposed innocence – but now he’s suddenly claiming that he got involved in Ukraine because Volker asked him to, for diplomatic reasons. Rudy then deleted his tweet. But it turned out he didn’t delete it because he figured out the tweet harmed his legal case, because an hour later he posted the same exact tweet again. What’s Rudy doing? He surely doesn’t know. At least he won’t have to worry about Twitter in prison.
