Rudy: Mueller team "trying very very hard to frame (Trump) to get him in trouble"

[Miles Archer]

JERUSALEM (AP) — Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani says special counsel Robert Mueller’s team is trying to frame President Trump.

Giuliani, who has been serving as Trump’s lawyer amid the Russia scandal, says Wednesday in Israel that Mueller’s team includes “13 highly partisan Democrats ... (who) are trying very very hard to frame him to get him in trouble when he hasn’t done anything wrong.”

Speaking to the Globes capital market conference in Tel Aviv, Giuliani says Trump has the power to pardon himself but won’t because he is innocent.

It was the latest in Giuliani’s often contradictory comments surrounding the probe into Russia’s potential meddling in U.S elections.

1. To frame him, you say?

LOL

2. So, Framing Trump is today's excuse

yesterday, it was An Honest Mistake
the day before, it was Changing Recollections

Tomorrow will be??
(a) A Set Up by (Clinton, Comey or Obama)
(b) The President is more powerful than a king, so it doesn't matter if he conspired with the Russians
(c) Mueller hasn't found any evidence of collusion, so the investigation should be stopped
(d) Recycle an old excuse?
(e) Something else

5. framing that POS

as being "innocent" of all the facts that have been compiled and investigated. Hopefully Rudy will be named as an accomplice.

6. this is second attempt to derail the investigation...

and the more I hear ghouliani spew, the more I see that he really has nothing, zero.

first it was the "deadline", that he completely made up of sept 1st for the end of the investigation, (I think he realized when people called him on his total bullshit made up story that he backed off. he hasn't uttered that one again) he now is trying public smearing.

all this says to me is desperation.

while ghouliani is good at what he does; making shit up and living off of 9/11 (he was mayor for 2 whole months afterwards) living off his past achievements (going after the mob in the '80's, which wasn't all that hard then because the mob in NYC in the mid 80's was pretty much done and on life support), he now has become a complete parody of himself.

I get more of the "I don't give a shit, I'm rich, so fuck you" kind of attitude from him now.

he doesn't care about the bad publicity or the idiotic things he says. someones paying him and he laughs all the way to the bank.

quite frankly, I wouldn't be the very least surprised if he was suddenly hired by one of the orange assholes many many accusers and he jumped the tRump ship. And he would go on the very easy attack gleefully (so much more evidence against the orange asshole than for).

because at the end of the day, ghouliani has always been and will always be a greedy opportunist.
