The Long and Twisted Ties of Giuliani and Trump

[DonViejo]

Wayne Barrett: “Rudy has actually been more visible in his buddy’s campaign than he was at times in his own $50 million presidential attempt in 2008, when he managed to convert the months-long top ranking in the polls into a single delegate. The imperial 2016 candidate who hates losers, especially ones who wind up in Vietnamese prisons, has instead embraced an epic dud, his solitary act of empathy in a campaign of callousness. He could’ve trashed Rudy like he did John McCain: ‘I like people who weren’t caught with their command center down.’

“But the onetime comb-over twins just had too much in common. Though bombs-away hawks today, they got multiple draft deferments during the Vietnam War, with athlete Donald citing bad feet as his excuse and Rudy using an ear defect to sidestep his ROTC obligations.”

“Then there’s the wife trifecta. No one in American public life, other than perhaps their kindred spirit Newt Gingrich, has ever mastered the art of a bad divorce like Rudy and Donald, carrying on as if spousal humiliation was the point.”

Politico: Is Rudy Giuliani losing his mind?
