Giuliani trumps 'alternative facts' with 'Truth isn't truth'

Rudy has lost it... and he doesn't speak for anyone but himself.

Thank you for showing so obviously that you don't care about the facts either. Giuliani is Trump's lawyer and speaks for him. That is a very simple fact for those of us who still believe in facts.

Giuliani's entire legal career, after being a clerk, was as a prosecutor. I never understood why Trump thought that would therefore automatically translate into his being a good defense attorney.

Eh, I get what Giuliani is getting at even if he worded it awkwardly. But this is politics where nobody is ever given the benefit of the doubt.

What Giuliani was attempting to say is that even if you're innocent, you don't hand prosecutors the rope to hang you with, because even telling the truth can get you into trouble.

For example:

"Do you know anything about who killed your neighbor?"
"I didn't shoot him if that's what you're asking."
"And how do you know he was shot? I never told you told you that."

Congratulations, you just became a suspect.

There is absolutely no compelling reason for Trump to voluntarily sit down for a conversation with Mueller.

That was not the example I heard him use. Did he say anything along those lines or is this your best guess of what you would like to believe he really meant to say when he said 'Truth isn't truth'?

Of course I care about the facts. But Rudy is clearly not on his game.

And yet he remains Trump's lawyer and speaks for him (though you said he did not speak for anyone but himself).

I like what you did with the thread title here. Clever.

You basically posted a comedy clip video of various statements being made with no context. It has no meaning.

[Leonhard]

There was a time when all Giuliani said was a noun, a verb and 9/11. Now, apparently, he's settled for nonsense.

Thanks. However it is not something I can take much credit for since it is based pretty much on the title in the article I refer to.
