Trump reportedly 'orders aides not to pay Rudy Giuliani's $20K-a-day fee'

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.

Come on folks. Get real.

This is the Lefty Daily Mail quoting the Lefty Washington Compost who got the story from "two officials" who claim the president "reportedly" did something.

If we can't recognize fake news when it's staring us in the face, we need to stop following the MSM narrative.

This is a manufactured hit piece by the Trump-hating media.

And the Supreme Court. Roberts was afraid it would be impossible to ignore all the evidence presented so he decided it was best not to hear it.

Reportedly.

If Trump wants Giuliani to handle his impeachment defense as has been reported then the last thing he's going to do is stiff his lawyer.

But to Deplorable’s point, they did go to the republican controlled state legislatures and get them to act, but...no courage to stand up and do the right thing.

Tried to get them to act.
They were just talking to a whole bunch of self-propelled speed bumps.

I think that was the kill shot on Trump. With the evidence he had Rudy thought the lower courts would allow for a signature validated audit and recount. They would not even hear it. Texas made a case and that was one of the big ones and it should have been heard. They punted. Game basically over. GA is supposed to have a audit in Folsom county tomorrow if the ballots have not been shredded. If the have not then we will see massive fraud in that county and would swing the state in Trumps favor, but time has ran out. There plan worked. It will be found out later and won’t matter.

I can never figure out the Daily Mail.

In one Trump article the comments are 95% pro Trump. Another Trump article 2 spaces down and it’s 95% against Trump.

It is like this every single day no matter the subject matter about Trump. DM is clearly manipulating the comments.

“I was extremely sympathetic with them up until Thanksgiving weekend. ...That “kracken” never materialized.”

My thoughts exactly. Rudy, Powell, Wood and so many others spinning delusions about “the plan” did grave damage to Trump and the Country. I have no sympathy for these people. I’m sad that Trump unquestioningly fell for their con.

I knew it’s was BS when Rudy made the “ballots under the table” claim with video showing the tables put into place and boxes being rolled out, without showing what happened in between despite having all the footage - which having watched the video myself shows that claim to be bogus. I can only assume he knew and knowingly used his stature to push a false story.
