Last week in a post I joked that Trump should put Giuliani in charge of his election lawsuits.

It was a joke. I promise.

But then this happened:

Advisers reportedly confounded by Trump's decision to let Giuliani run election legal efforts

President Trump has reportedly made a call to the bullpen as his hopes of disqualifying enough ballots to win the the presidency through the legal system dwindle.

The New York Times reports the president has tapped his personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, to lead the effort from now on after the Trump campaign dropped its legal challenges throughout Arizona's Maricopa County on Friday while President-elect Joe Biden's lead grew in the state, where he's the projected winner. The campaign was also dealt blows in Michigan and Pennsylvania.

Per the Times, the decision to bring in Giuliani was not well-received by White House and campaign officials, who think Trump "is conflating a media strategy with a legal one." Several advisers reportedly told the Times that Giuliani's efforts have been counterproductive and overly-optimistic. They're reportedly worried he'll damage not only Trump's few remaining legal options, but also his political future, which some hope will include a 2024 presidential run.

1. The Keystone Kops to the rescue.

2. It's really just a perfect ending to a ridiculous effort

I love that you predicted it- and love that tRump is down to using loyalist Ghouliani to try to push senseless lawsuits in court.

It bodes well for Democrats and the nation.

3. Now tell Trump to get Pence to resign

After Pence resigns, tell him to name Biden as his new VP.

Then tell him to resign.

After the success you've already had, it's worth a try.

4. Maybe Ghouliani can get Borat's daughter as an assistant...

although that would surely lead to unabated "shirt tucking"....

5. It must be his hands-on approach.

6. Good one!

7. Rudy needs to score a Pardon

for his Federal Crimes. My guess is,he thinks no Jury in New York will convict him. All about staying out of Prison and filing Bankruptcy.

Good call -- you nailed it joke notwithstanding!
