Trump has reportedly ordered aides not to pay Rudy Giuliani's legal fees and is also demanding to personally scrutinize all of Giuliani's travel expenses
Giuliani had billed $20,000 per day to aid Trump's quest to challenge election - he failed to stop election certification or prevent Twitter's lifetime ban on the President
Trump expressed disappointment with some of Giuliani's legal moves in challenging the election results, and did not appreciate his demand for $20,000 a day in the failed push, two officials told the Washington Post.
The officials said the president is also demanding to personally approve all expenses incurred by Giuliani in his multi-state legal campaign to prove election fraud, which quickly fizzled in court
...Amid the strain, Trump's relationship with Giuliani may be fracturing - although the president's lawyer is one of the few who have vigorously defended him in public, insisting that Trump's actions were not incitement.
Giuliani has been a key legal advisor to Trump in his election challenge, after leading a leading a personal crusade to unearth potential dirt on Joe Biden and his son Hunter in Ukraine.
The former New York City mayor's legal charge challenging the election took bizarre turns at times, such as the notorious press conference held in the parking lot of Four Seasons Total Landscaping outside Philadelphia.
It led to speculation that the location had been mistakenly booked in the belief that it was the upscale Four Seasons Hotel Philadelphia in Center City, although the incident was never fully explained.
At another press conference, at the Republican National Committee in Washington DC, an agitated and sweaty Giuliani appeared to be melting on live TV, with some kind of hair dye dripping down the side of his face.

You believe everything you read in the DM...?
That Four Seasons press conference cost a bundle. That was probably the straw that broke the camels back.
As usual, The Daily Smell cites two unnamed “sources” who are repeating something they supposedly read in The Washington Post. Yeah. It doesn’t get more concrete than that.
Hope this is not true. I do not think it is. Rudy is the only one on his side. He was on bannon yesterday. I would think if he isn’t getting paid he wouldn’t be working. He has done a good job, the media has blocked him and his massive evidence.
“Reportedly” As soon as I see that word, I move on.
This is never going to end for the greatest President we’ve had. We’ll be seeing “Breaking News”-Trump’s window shades were leaning to the right, clearly a sign that he continues to incite his followers....
These two words used together, turn everything following into anything the writer wants, without any quotes or named sources.
FYI- I was extremely sympathetic with them up until Thanksgiving weekend. After that I grew more cynical each day. That "kracken" never materialized. The proof that was supposed to flow like "water out of a firehose" proved to be trickles at best. Then at the end they spun a tale saying Pence could reject the entire slate of electors which was false.
Look, it hurts to admit you were lied to. These 3 lied to us and they lied to/misled President Trump. And I proudly voted for Trump twice
Three strikes and this article is all bullshit:
Strike one - the article wreaks of leftist tripe.
Strike two - the story is based on two sources that told WaPo.
Strike three - “Trump reportedly”, the word equates to “rumor”.
The Daily Mud lies daily, they make up stories to please their mostly lunatic readers.
Strike four - money to pay off legal fees would be coming out of the reelection funds and not President Trump’s personal account so this is all a nothing burger by the DM to stir up the masses with yellow journalism.
“He was on bannon yesterday.”
I hope he’s on again today. Maybe this issue will be addressed.

Yes we were lied to, I made that case early on and even suffered a suspension on here since conspiracy theories are superior to reality and facts.
The win here was getting the entire states to be disqualified early on because they changed their election laws illegally. That was a win and the remedy was to conduct a new election in those states or allow the legislature to pick the winners.
That would have at least been a case
It would have been Bush v Gore type of case
All Trump needed was competent real lawyers to do it.
That is exactly how I feel about the whole thing.
I think what I find really annoying is that these lawyers have convinced a whole whack of people, including a majority on this discussion board, that fraud was actually committed and Pence is a bad guy without ever delivering the goods.
I call FAKE and GAY, uh sources, I have sources who say Biden is a pedophile sniffing moron.
I am sorry to read you were suspended. I hope it doesn’t happen again. Thanks for your post.
Ah-huh.
Exactly. The Media is trying to kill him under allegations
