Bunker USA: From 9/11 hero to Trump lapdog – How Rudy Giuliani trashed himself and America
Description
Rudy Giuliani was once credited for lowering crime in New York and a swift response to 9/11. So how has he fallen so sharply from grace? Jacob Jarvis is joined by Andrew Kirtzman, author of Giuliani: The Rise and Tragic Fall of America's Mayor to find out how since becoming an integral part of the Donald Trump leadership, Rudy Giuliani is a figure beset with scandals.
- “Rudy Giuliani was a different person in the past, an authoritarian but largely effective and smart.”
- “The Rudy Giuliani of today is sloppy, forgetful and lost in a fog.”
- “Rudy Giuliani attended 200 funerals – and then cynically cashed in on his fame.”
- “Trump brought Rudy Giuliani back to life.”
- “Whatever good Rudy Giuliani did as Mayor has been eviscerated by the 2020 election.”
