Big fan of @glennkirschner2, but this commentary is emblematic of many in the legal and political analyst community who miss the point: @rudygiuliani isn't a buffoon. He's dangerous and madness is part of his method.
The best way to see @rudygiuliani is as a bad prosecutor who frames most of his targets to either convict them or gain leverage to extract favors or concessions. Think Harvey Keitel in "The Bad Lieutenant" but as a prosecutor and you get an idea of what Rudy is.
@RudyGiuliani picks a target, invents a story to frame the target on his terms & then brings prosecutorial rigor to make the accusation hold up. It takes a lot of effort to expose it, and by the time you do, he's already convinced the target audience or extracted his concessions.
I shudder to think how many people @rudygiuliani framed for crimes or targeted for kickbacks, bribes or other favors during his time as a US attorney. He's as corrupt as they come.
What @rudygiuliani is saying in this clip is if he were given the role of leading Trump's defense, he'd put @joebiden, the @DNC, the Obama administration and the @FBI on trial. He'd turn it into the circus that Trump wants and flip the script on the Dems.
