Ex-Watergate Prosecutor: Rudy Giuliani’s ‘Very Weak’ Defense Of Donald Trump | The Last Word | MSNBC

Jill Wine Banks and Jennifer Rubin are great. I love hearing their insights.

[lexas]

Great segment. Desperate Don crossed the red line a long long time ago as Matt said, and Jennifer is quite right, these cowardly republicans deserve to go down with their Dear Leader. Their careers are over.

[scottbarron]

Even Giuliani cannot defend the indefensible so instead his attacks and spins. He clearly is not a good lawyer but those strategies are the only arrows in his quiver. It hard to defend a criminal client when the prosecution has so much evidence in the public record and from people that have flipped. Rudy will lose this case in the court of public opinion.

[bryanstewart]

Can Rudy join Trump and Paul in the pokey? Maybe their cellmates can sell them for smokes.

[mddevice]

Trump's lawyer actually have a strong defense by claiming insanity. Seriously, he has displayed a compulsion he can't control and that qualifies.

[air]

We have an expression where I come from: "He is guilty".

[shannonbloom]

And a question has been asked but never answered. What's the difference between Russian Oligarchs and American Billionaires? NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

[carmenneumann]

I HIRE THE BEST PEOPLE....said donni last year

[jantruitt]

Thank You The Real News!
We need you to inform us of what trump is doing to the American People!

[jameschampaco]

Trump is very "grey" when tweeting like this. He purposely leaves himself open for definition or to switch his motive/words. All word okay when it comes to trump

[Corn_Pone_Flicks]

I'm fairly certain that if my boss told me that I "should" do something, that's not a suggestion, that's an instruction. I don't think Giuliani's excuse would cut much ice.

[camelsheit_on_the_walls]

'Very weak defense' Well that's one way to put it.. I'd rather call it: 'Alternate defense'

[jojojam]

LOCK HIM UP LOCK HIM UP LOCK HIM UP LOCK HIM UP ad infinitum

[brightonbabe]

Previous presidents weren’t so corrupt and guilty

[theelordpyro]

Rudy is just praying for a plane or two to fix his problems....again.

[EZGlutenFree]

If I told my son that he should empty the trash now, I'd expect him to start moving. My words would be a directive not an opinion. The word "NOW" further emphasizes the order. And if my kid started arguing that I used the word "SHOULD" and therefore he thought it was just a suggestion, there'd be problems.

[doclewis]

They've ALL put party over country. Period.

[anthonypatterson]

The fact that Trump supporters don't see how weak he is strolling an enfeebled Giuliani out there to defend him for months, especially after the last month where Trumps looked both like a misogynistic bully and Russian bought coward, speaks volumes to how desperate, invested, and frankly terrifying their minds work.

[danielpupo]

Whatever law school gave Guiliani a law degree should probably think about closing its doors.

[henryfoolman]

Manafart and Stooliani will bring Lownald Dump to jail.
