I used to have a great deal of respect for Mr. Giuliani, even when he was a GOP mayor of NYC and I was a Democrat. It's truly sad to see what he's become. It's one thing to be an advocate in the immediate aftermath of the 2020 election, it's quite another to risk your reputation making unfounded claims as if they're established fact.
Pay up Rudy
Rudy Guiliai is the biggest douchebag there is? I have never seen a lawyer doing things purposely against the law wrong like he did. He knew that there is no evidence that the maschines have rigged the election or even could rig the election. While Trump did it for his own benefit Rudy Guiliani did it for sole money and nothing else.
Never dementia Biden
GOD BLESS TRUMP 2024â¤â¤â¤â¤â¤â¤â¤
Rudy licking his makeup off around his mouth like he’s the Joker
Rudy, I can't even look at you without imagining your face with hair dye streaming down it, while you stood adjacent to a sex shop hosting a "DILDO MADNESS" sale…
C'mon… just leave quickly and quietly into the abyss you created.
Hes never been a good man! Hes a liar and a cheat!!!
I watched this episode 3 times. I know President Rodham won, but how could anyone, anywhere vote for djtrump after this episode?
I just don't understand how people can throw away everything just for Trump. At one time, Giuliani was America's mayor.
3 Years later a now mugshot of Rudy is there. He really fell from grace after being mayor. The failed Senate race, presidency, and his marriage all went down the toilet. Aligning himself with Trump is what is going to put him in prison. Now he's going to be fighting for his life.
Stop lying about the crowd size Rudy.
I have only discovered these Frontline interviews recently and they are all Jewels. I will tell you a story. Here in Great Britain we had a documentary called The World at War. It came out in 1971 and 1973. It was all about WW2. It is still considered the best documentary about the conflict ever. It has never been beaten? Why? Because most of the key players were still alive then and we were getting history first hand by those that made it. Well I am as entertained as I was back then by Front Line because the USA is going through tumultuous times and these are the people that are making it. Good or bad, Blue or Red. A tour de force in objectivity. You should be proud America for this. US politics today to me can be very frustrating bur always strangely compelling.
This guy is mentally ill…. he's like the drunk uncle of Rudy of the old days
I thought I could do it. I really did. But I can’t watch him for another second. That creepy a$$ smile when he’s asked to imagine a young t*****p did it for me. That’s as far as I can get.
First politician ever airbrushed INTO history
Why did you try to overthrow the constitution?
Meeting Trump is going to cost him the rest of his life in prison.
He is such a disgusting character.
his lips dont lie lol more eyeliner please,
"London, Paris, and Rome can't really live up to the excitement of New York…" (cut to footage of rat dragging a piece of pizza through a pool of urine in the subway)
I wonder if they had to take an interview break so Rudy could reach down his pants to re-adjust his microphone
As a kid he spent more time in lockerroms than in his bedroom? What a childhood!
Buying cement from the mafia
What a stain
ha ha ha amerikaanse gezichtsbruiner
Rudy a disgraced and disbarred lawyer who did his best to bring American democracy to an end.
Rudy was my man when he ran new York city. Tough on crime, no BS, kind of guy . Nowadays, I don't get why he clings to Trump, knowing full well, that Trump is kinda toxic.
His hands are blueeeeee
I really appreciate that frontline talks to both sides of the coin. Please continue.
Rudy's eye make up is a little heavy I think, well at least he doesn't melt away this time.
I didn't know Bagdad Bob had that much plastic surgery,….. Nice to know he found a job, after that Sadam thing went sideways.
Estoy de acuerdo en que tenemos que juntarnos para reclamar nuestros derechos constitucionales, juntos toda la gente normal y responsable tenemos que reclamar por todas las libertades, dadas por Dios desde que nacemos.
He looks so attractive, it’s really amazing how much a little airbrushing can do…but Donald’s love & friendship has had a really great effect on his beauty, which really makes America happy, and it’s especially needed now, as the country mourns for the millions who have suffered. Thank you, Rudy – you’re the assistant to American’s favorite landlord.
“The buildings dwarf you, the buildings remind you how unimportant you are!â€
It makes so much sense to me that he’d say a building could make a human being feel “insignificant.â€
He’s so talented at answering questions
This comment section is the funniest one I have seen in a long time.
