The President’s attorney, Rudy Giuliani, is at it again. Here are some of the things he said on CNN’s “State of the Union” that are raising eyebrows.
On whether there was collusion, Giuliani didn’t rule out that someone, somewhere in the campaign may have had inappropriate contact with the Russians.
GIULIANI: "You go out to the outer orbit, how do I know what's going on? But I don't think that would matter. You can't, you know, there's just collusion with a guy 50 rungs down on the campaign? Not that I'm saying it happened, but if it did, I don't know what that means."

Here’s what he said about the Mueller probe.
Q: "So you think that the Mueller probe is legitimate?"
Rudy Giuliani: "Not anymore. I don’t. I did when I came in. But now I see Spygate…" (via CNN) https://t.co/5hKpJxk6ID

He also had some not-so-nice things to say about former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and ex-CIA Director John Brennan.
Giuliani: "I don't know what you want to call it, but I have no regard at all for Clapper and Brennan. I think they are two clowns… There are a lot of people with decades of service. Some are good, some bad. And some then get consumed with power and some begin to lie" #CNNSOTU

As you can imagine a lot of what Giuliani said is being scrutinized.
I served with Jim Clapper. Bob Mueller is a combat decorated Marine. Each has had 1 wife (over 100 years of marriage). Rudy Giuliani and @realDonaldTrump had more deferments (10) to avoid facing harm’s way than they’ve had wives (6 … so far). I know who I trust. @CNNSotu

Watching a Rudy Giuliani interview these days is like a Fun House ride, fillled with crazy twists and turns. And when it’s done, you just shake your head and ask, “What just happened?”

DJT promised the American people the “best and the brightest” and delivered…Dazed & Confused Giuliani. Ignorant of the facts. Doesn’t know the law. Hasn’t tried a case this century. He’s a glorified puppet with zero credibility. And a complete joke. #Basta
