And he's right. I'm sure he's getting pardoned immediately. Just delay a few more months and it all goes away.
There is no justice in this country, just vindictive assholes who will smack the hammer down on anyone who dares to try to attempt justice.
Come on, Trump does not give a shit about Rudy Giuliani lol
He has nothing to offer anymore. He completely lost his status even with the fascists.
Can’t pardon him for state crimes
This is a proceeding in federal court, but the president's pardon power doesn't extend to civil cases anyway. Or at least until the Supreme Court rules that it does.
At least there's that then, thanks for the correction!
It's not even a crime, it's a civil lawsuit they filed
Trump won't have the authority to pardon him for this. It's a local, civil case.
Bruh just seize them
they better hurry up
And if you can't because they've been moved or "mysteriously misplaced," charge him for grand larceny and arrest him (IANAL so there is probably a better legal term for this).
I don't think that "sure, I stole from them, but I "lost" what I stole so we cool now," is a valid legal defense. But I'm not a disbarred lawyer, so I could be wrong.
They tried, but he keeps moving shit.
Would it be in bad taste to make an arcade racing game where Rudy has to outrun the courts until Daddy Trump appears like one punch man?
This would be a fun bit of justice porn after seeing Trump get away with everything.
I don't think you can pardon a civil case?
On the other hand, it might just be the first sign of the naked corruption we can expect to see more of.
He is home free now.
