Rudy Giuliani: Trump Didn't Collude With Russia Because Campaign Never Used Dirt on Clinton

Speaking to Laura Ingraham on Fox News Wednesday night, pro bono President Donald Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani insisted that there was no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia because it’s not illegal to get dirt and not use it.

He then said the focus of the investigation should really be on former FBI director James Comey, not Trump.

“There’s nothing illegal about that [getting dirt],” Giuliani opined, referring to the CNN report that Donald Trump Jr. admitted the Trump Tower meeting was aimed at getting dirt on Hillary Clinton. “Even if it comes from a Russian or German or American, it doesn’t matter. They never used it. That’s the main thing. They rejected it. If there was collusion with the Russians they would’ve used it.”

He then suggested that the person who should really be under investigation is Comey.

1. Then, there is the matter of how you knew about Wikileaks before it happened, hmm Rooody?

[Johonny]

13. exactly. They clearly used the dirt on Hillary.

[Phoenix61]

2. I'm not sure about that

I know conspiracy to commit murder will land you in jail even if the murder didn't happen.

3. Yeah, just like the person who hires a hitman on their spouse then

claim innocence after the plan falls apart.

[SHRED]

4. Keep talking Rudy...Keep talking.

[PubliusEnigma]

5. Conspiracy is a crime even if you fail in your primary criminal pursuit.

6. As I've said before

Being a bad crook doesn’t make you any less of s crook.

7. Rudy sounds like the know it all drunk at the local bar

[peggysue2]

8. So . . .

if I break and enter someone's house or business and decide there's nothing of value worth stealing, I'm A-okay, innocent as a babe, no problem.

Oh Rudy! Keep it up baby because you're making the case against your client.

Anyone putting a bet that the Trumpster's surrogates will start touting this line? But, but . . . we never got the dirt we were looking for, so no harm, no foul?

9. And the conspiracy is ongoing !!!

[dem4decades]

10. I thought he loved Wikileaks, he used their leaks endlessly.

[duforsure]

11. Is his speech problem

From sticking his foot in his mouth all the time now? What a joke.

[edhopper]

12. Actually Rudy has it completely backward

using the dirt is no illegal, how you got the dirt is.

[dawg day]

14. There WAS NO DIRT

This is something we have to keep reiterating. There was no dirt. The Russians didn't have it. She hadn't done anything wrong.

The reason Trump Jr ended that meeting disappointed was because the Russians didn't produce the dirt because it WASN'T THERE.
Clinton has been slandered over and over, and the media seem to think there is no need to state that Trump was desperate for dirt, and couldn't get it, so had to make it up.

Even the KGB, Russian oligarchs, billionaires like the Kochs, and Trump's nasty minions couldn't get what they wanted.
The nation, frankly, owes this public servant Secy Clinton an apology. Actually, we owe her the gd presidency which was stolen from her AND US.

I don't know how this can be rectified. But the election should be reversed.

16. it is a crime to receive stolen materials

and it is collusion if you made a deal with Russia to get those hacked stolen emails.
Rudy is so funny. I don't know how he can even speak with his foot in his mouth.

[GusBob]

18. Pal-ing around with Russian spies is just fine, huh Rudy?
