Let me remind everyone Rudy Giuliani is likely under investigation by Mueller. So the fact he thinks he can serve as one of Trumps attorneys is ludicrous. Hes directly linked to Putin, has worked extensively in Russia for years and is tied to folks in the Dossier. #TrumpResign

Photos/Doc: Here's Rudy Giuliani with the owners of Russia's Alfa Bank. Alex Van Der Zwaan's (who already pled guilty in Mueller's probe) father-in-law, Russian billionaire German Khan, is a co-owner. This is also the same bank with the alleged server in Trump Tower. #TrumpLeaks

So Trump has just hired, as his new attorney, an almost certain witness in the Mueller probe. That means he will be paying money to, and sharing his own confidential testimony with, a fellow Mueller witness. This is both Obstruction and Witness Tampering. But hey, who's counting?
2/ Understand what this allows Trump to do (or what he *thinks* it does): allows him to discuss the Russia case and the pre-election Clinton email hoaxes with Giuliani, synch up his testimony, then ensure Giuliani can't discuss those conversations with Mueller.
He's transparent.

Here's Rudy talking about the illegal leaks he received from the NYC FBI office. The best part is him saying "I expected this [the reopening of the Clinton case] to happen 3 or 4 weeks ago," which means he was briefed on the "new" emails almost immediately after McCabe and Comey.

And here are two lengthy posts of Seth Abramson info from the past -- very enlightening about Guiliani's many sins

Beyond that, I think there is an excellent chance Ghouliani is complicit.

(14,047 posts)4. Given Trump's poor understanding of attorney-client privilege...
is it possible he thinks that by hiring witnesses as "lawyers" he thinks he can keep them from having to testify?
