SaysWho? Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/12/a-conversation-with-rudy-giuliani-over-bloody-marys.html Quote As we sped uptown, he spoke in monologue about the scandal he co-created, weaving one made-up talking point into another and another. He said former ambassador Marie Yovanovitch, whom he calls Santa Maria Yovanovitch, is “controlled” by George Soros. “He put all four ambassadors there. And he’s employing the FBI agents.” I told him he sounded crazy, but he insisted he wasn’t. “Don’t tell me I’m anti-Semitic if I oppose him,” he said. “Soros is hardly a Jew. I’m more of a Jew than Soros is. I probably know more about — he doesn’t go to church, he doesn’t go to religion — synagogue. He doesn’t belong to a synagogue, he doesn’t support Israel, he’s an enemy of Israel. He’s elected eight anarchist DA’s in the United States. He’s a horrible human being.” In the grand tradition of Soros conspiracy theorists, Giuliani believes the media is doing the billionaire’s bidding by printing lies about him, yet he often bungles his own attempts to discredit the media’s reporting. While attempting to argue that, despite what has been written, “I have no business interests in Ukraine,” he told me about his business interests in Ukraine. “I’ve done two business deals in Ukraine. I’ve sought four or five others,” he said. Since he’s been representing the president, he said, he has been approached with two opportunities in Ukraine, both of which he turned down to avoid accusations of impropriety. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silentbob Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 The guy if off his stick and babbling like an idiot. Although I do wonder seriously about his mental health. Didn’t McCain start babbling weird shit too and only to find out that he had brain cancer. After his surgery he seemed coherent and started to make sense when he talked. I think someone should seriously look into getting him seen too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 I understand that people who don’t live around NYC remember, but the city was a dumpster fire. Giuliani and others helped clean it up. The TIME cover was warranted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is responsible for 9/11 first responders dying years and years excruciatingly from disease and cancer because he undersold how dangerous it was to go to Ground Zero. He dropped out of a Senate race against Hillary due to a messy divorce due to an affair and health issues. He wasn't the most influential person that year; it was given to him as a "rah rah America" thing, but he clearly was not the person who had the most influence on the world or anywhere close to it. The closer you are to NYC, the more you're going to dislike Giuliani. It's why he failed so miserably in 2008: people found out they really didn't actually like him. 9/11 was a resurgence of his political career, not a testament to the kind of man he is.

I agree with all of the above but I'm also bored of Twitter style gotcha nonsense 24/7 and the Time cover doesn't pertain to the topic as far as I'm concerned so it annoyed me on that level. NYC being my second home, I think he should be publicly flogged, drawn and fucking quartered for his 9/11 first responders shit alone mind you.

Yo, many of us didn't think he should have been awarded it then, so his lack of character becoming more apparent since 9/11 when he was given this POTY distinction makes it funnier to me that he won it to begin with. It's not a gotcha: plenty of people knew he was a twat-waffle before 9/11, so every time he says something like the OP, I think of how silly it is to rush to put someone like him on a pedestal. It should be a learning lesson for everyone, not seen as a "gotcha." A reminder that rushing to recognize someone because "rah rah, I love America," leads to picks that didn't make sense then and don't age well now.
