Guess who’s touring the Ukraine again? Rudy, Trump’s new Mr. Fix-It — remember, Trump’s previous fixer is languishing in a tanning bed behind bars for having fixed what ain’t broke.
So, just what is the consigliere of the capo de capo of the Trump Mob Family doing back at what will surely become known as “The Scene of the Crime”? The initial lie was that he was going to meet with Ukrainian “officials.” Odd that. With no portfolio other than his briefcase and unsecure phone, Giuliani is merely a private citizen whose capacity is to be, in his own words, “working for my client.”
Well then, all I can assume is that Mr. Giuliani, Esq. is carrying the money Trump owes to the corrupt former prosecutor, Yuriy Lutsenko, for earlier services rendered to Trump. That’s the only thing that makes sense. One un-official doing business with another un-official. Think two defrocked priests meeting to exchange candid photos. Isn’t that what rich people’s lawyers do? Handle the ugly little dirty secret lint that clings to their clients’ unsullied persons. Like, undertaking tiresome journeys in order to pay off troublesome individuals who do the distasteful things their clients don’t want to have associated with their persons? You betcha!
Why do I come to that conclusion? Well, in spite of all the evidence that proves otherwise, I still can’t believe that Trump would be so stupid as to solicit more dirt on Biden, Clinton, or Obama while he’s in the middle of an impeachment process that is highly likely to define solicitation of a foreign entity or individuals to corrupt the American elections for his own personal advantage is an impeachable offense.
Live in hope. But if this entire business is hopeless, that brings me to the point where I must consider what the proper remedy for the Worst Case Scenario should be.
For starters, I confess that my immediate reaction to the news of Giuliani’s excursion was, “Did he buy a one-way ticket”? If that’s not the case (Hope once again extinguished.), I have but one idea for a cure.
Rudy Giuliani must not be allowed back into the country!
The true patriots in the State Department must declare him persona non grata. They must revoke his passport. He must be stopped at the border. He must be caged until, after his trial in NY, he can be deported somewhere. Else.
And that’s all I have to say about that.
