Trump Denies Sending Rudy Giuliani to Ukraine for Biden Probe

Source: Bloomberg

'Donald Trump denied directing Rudy Giuliani to go to Ukraine to look for dirt on his political rivals, in an interview with former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly.

“No, I didn’t direct him, but he is a warrior, he is a warrior,” Trump told O’Reilly in an interview streamed on the internet on Tuesday.

Giuliani has said publicly that he conducted an investigation “concerning 2016 Ukrainian collusion and corruption” on Trump’s behalf.

Asked by O’Reilly what Giuliani was doing in Ukraine, Trump said “you have to ask that to Rudy.”

“Rudy has other clients, other than me,” Trump said. “He’s done a lot of work in Ukraine over the years.”'


HEAR THAT THUMP THUMP? That's RICO Rudy thrown under the bus by traitor trump/DISINFORMATION Donnie.

Or maybe he did. With SDNY breathing down his neck, how long will he remain motivated to be loyal to Fat Nixon?

I think the emotional reaction personified by that tweet is more accurate than his slight more rational half deleting it.

I heard he was a really good guy. After all he helped me when I single handedly dug out the 911 casualties. He said really beautiful things about me. Beautiful. Such perfect things. He praise me for now having the tallest most perfect tower in NY.

in this Red Don and KGOP drama series this week we learn that the fake "Son of Biden Ukraine" plot was put in motion to plant the meme that Manafort was set up. The Black Ledger with Manafort's name was fake so that would justify Red Don to spring his lifelong friend Paul Manafort from the slammer then continue the lie that Ukraine conducted the 2016 U.S. election interference ( I hate when they say meddling), held the DNC server, etc., we know the rest of the KGOP propaganda.

In fact, it took me a couple minutes to figure out if it was Manafort or Flynn he said that about. Likely both, in some form.

There's no way that Ghouliani wouldn't brag about this to his collaborator, and that IQ45 wouldn't micromanage anything where his delusions of grandeur are on the line--like, that big fricking hallucination that he won the popular vote, if it hadn't been for those Ukrainians and illegals that prevented him from having the bigliest tremendous win ever.


Yeah, you had nothing to do with it, Fatty McDumbAss.

And got caught and exposed, and his lying now claiming he didn't send him there is another attempt to cover it up he was involved. Expect him to openly say the opposite in a few days , saying he did knowing its coming out, and claiming it was about corruption when it clearly was about him corrupting them. That's another attempt to cover up the facts and the truth. Also shows intent that he was well aware what he did was a crime, and is lying about his involvement . They also need to start asking about if trump has been trying to contact Supreme Court Justice Roberts. His patterns show he will , and try to use any tactic he can to make Roberts compromised too to fix the trial. This is standard procedure for trump, like his trying to bribe republican Senators , or threatens them with exposure, to do as he demands or else . trumps own lies show his guilt daily what he was doing, and republicans are going to be destroyed for staying with him , and promoting his lies and ongoing criminal activities.

would you mind doing a drive train inspection? You may have to elbow a few other folks out of the way, but that's the way it goes when Trump is involved.
