Rudy on his assault today: “All the sudden, I feel a shot on my back. Like somebody shot me! Lucky I’m a 78 year old who’s in pretty good shape, cause if I wasn’t, I’d have hit the ground and cracked my skull .. Suppose I was a weaker 78 year old and cracked my skull and died?”


I coulda cracked my skull and died!

That sure was "harrowing" . . .

I also can't buy that people were hugging and kissing him. Who does he think he is ? trump ?

But he couldn't come up with an effective argument about being a scumbag.

That's like TFG going into a Sam's Club or Publix.
Does not seem to be the sort of place he'd frequent unless they sell alcohol and it's an emergency...

He is a total Statesman,... George Washington and Ben Franklin would not compare to Toody Rudy's political or patriotic acumen.

He's delusional if he thinks he's in good shape. Look at that first picture. I'm a 73-year old woman and I think I could knock his lights out in one punch to his gut.

Fascinating to see the whiny snowflake complaining. It gets more dramatic with each telling.

I can’t read his tweets, because he l blocked me on Twitter.

If he doesn't want to be called one, maybe he shouldn't ACT like one.
