Q: Where is the worst place in the world to be right now?
A: Anywhere in Donald Trump’s blast zone!
This is spiraling out of control by the minute, and I can’t get enough of it. For anybody who thinks that Trump fears going to prison most of all, I have news for them. That would all depend if he still had Twitter when he hit the block. Because from where I’, sitting, Trump’s greatest terror has already befallen him, he’s been banned from Twitter. And what does a 2 year old do when you taked their teddy bear? A total tantrum.
Breaking news is showing an infantile man child in total meltdown. Trump is in the Oval Office, and doing nothing byut watching television and fuming. He is pissed at everybody he can name, and most people he can’t. He is furious at his Chief of Staff, Mark Meadows, as well as Press Secretary Kayleigh McEenany, for refusingf to go before the cameras, and parrot his official line that all of his comments were almost universally seen as being appropriate. Not only have they refused, but told him they find the comments indefensible.
He’s uber pissed at his White House Counsel, Pat Cippollone, who is currently declining to defend him in his Senate impeachment trial, because he too feels that his conduct was indefensible. And he’s smoking hot at Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, for leaving open the opportunity that he will vote to convict Trump.
But because Trump is so transactional, proximity is everything, and at the moment, his personal Roslyn Village Idiot, Rudy Giuliano finds himself in the cross hairs.
The Washington Post has just told aides to immediately stop paying The Ghoul Man’s legal fees and bills. Personally, I think Nosferatu would have to be an even biffer moron than I give him credit for if he ever expected anything more than dimes on the dollar from Trump. To Trump, lawyers are nothing more than creditors, and as easily dealt with.
But the fact of the matter is, at this moment Giuliani has a lot more to worry about than if Trump pays him or not.Ghouliani desperately needs to be on Trump’s good side right now, and with the shrinking number of people surrounding him, it will be harder for Giuliani to find a way to deflect Trump’s rage.
because right now, The Ghoul Man needs a pardon the way a gambler needs a pair of dice. Ghouliani’s comments to the Trump mob last week could easily be seen as inciting violence. Also, he’s facing the possibility of federal FARA charges as an undeclared foreign agent, and possible criminal federal charges foe his shenanigans for Trump in the Ukraine. And in 6 days, there will be a new sheriff in town.
Rudy’s life was already in the shitter. He has the New York State Bar processing a complaint that could end up with him losing his ticket to practice. But somehow, finding a way to get back into Trump’s good graces, and securing that pardon, has become an existential issue for him.
OK, so I’m petty, vindictive little shit. But one of my longtime dreams has been to see Rudy Giuliani perp walked out of a door somewhere. I figured ut would be nothing but a pipe dream, with a trump pardon assured. But remember, in The Ghoul Man, you have a guy who can’t even dial the right number on his cell phone fer Crissakes! And suddenly, life is beginning to look potentially very fulfilling again. Don’t touch that dial.

Just as petty, Murf, just as vindictive. But I’m enjoying the taste of revenge nonetheless.
Four years ago I couldn’t even spell schadenfreude, now it’s my favorite word.
Some say revenge is best served cold. At this point i’ll take any tempature, even if i get greedy & get a roof of the mouth cheese pizza burn.
Rudy GeeIbuttdialedagainlani is in a “bigly” heap of trouble. As you said he’s lucky if he’s been getting pennies on the dollar for legal expenses he’s already racked up on Trump’s behalf and now he’s cut off completely? If you thought the leaks from his head were bad imagine the leading from his bank account! You’re damned right he screwed because he’s likely to have to wind up relying on some overworked public defender and he IS going to need his own legal representation.
I mean…serious question…when I was a teen Rudy was a rising star. Did any of you guys if you paid attention to politics then see him as too dumb to be a Bill and Ted character? How was he mayor if he was this inept? This is like a parody of a parody.
Ask the minority folks of NYC. my impression is his ass was saved by tbe tragedy of 911. As time erodes us all, character is revealed. Or, as in rudy’s case, rot.
rory, I think something serious happened to Rudy’s brain cells or maybe he has PTSD from 9/11. I don’t think he’s been in his right mind in recent years. Maybe I’m too kind…
I love your description of Trump vis-à-vis Twitter, I’ve been saying it’s like when a 5-year-old takes his toy truck and hits his little brother with it, then throws a fit when said truck is taken away.
Ooooohh! The typos!
I have read that some of the “very fine” lawyers representing the “patriots” who overran the Capitol are begging tRump for pardons for their clients because they were just doing what tRump told them to. If tRump has ANY brain cells still firing, I would think he would avoid granting THOSE pardons because they directly implicate HIM in the process! But who knows what he thinks
