Former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani Is Joining Trumps Legal Team
The former prosecutor said he hopes to negotiate an end to the special counsel investigation.
By Ryan Grenoble
President Donald Trumps legal team has a new member: Rudy Giuliani.
The former prosecutor and New York City mayor told The Washington Post that he plans to help the president navigate Robert Muellers special counsel investigation.
Im doing it because I hope we can negotiate an end to this for the good of the country and because I have high regard for the president and for Bob Mueller, Giuliani told the Post.
Giulianis decision was confirmed to multiple news outlets by Jay Sekulow, another of Trumps lawyers dealing with the Mueller probe. Trumps previous lead attorney on the case, John Dowd, resigned in March.
Sekulow added that two more lawyers, Jane Serene Raskin and Marty Raskin, have also joined the team.

Giuliani is up to his eyeballs in Trumpland misadventure.
Just one issue is this: Recall it was Giuliani who with great glee during an interview on television predicted something very big happening in the coming days. A few days later Comey made his infamous announcement that he was "reopening the investigation" into Hillary Clinton's e-mails.
