Giuliani furious Democrats want testimony from Bolton but not him:

‘They are afraid of my physical presence’

Rudy Giuliani is feeling left out.

The former New York mayor was upset Tuesday that Democrats are leaving him in the cold while pressing for John Bolton to be called as a witness at President Trump’s Senate impeachment trial.

“They have indicated in every way possible they are afraid of my physical presence,” Giuliani told the Daily News as part of a string of overnight texts. “They know I know what they are covering up. Why do they want Bolton if not me if they can prove their lies. Again I really should stop wasting my time.”

As Trump’s bulldog personal attorney, Giuliani played a key role in the president’s scheme to pressure Ukraine to announce investigations of Joe Biden and debunked right-wing claims about the 2016 election.

breath here...the only thing anyone should be on the watch for w/ G is that when he comes stumbling by, that he does fall all over or trip over on you or your friends.

Idiot.

Giuliani's testimony would be a disaster and a dream come true, and 100X more relevant than Hunter Biden's.

they have the votes (supposedly) to call him in.

Obviously, Repub leadership is not dumb enough, even for that.

Bolton hasn't shown himself to be a pathological liar.

Still don't trust that he wouldn't change his story for ideology or party.

so what he and Trump discussed is off limits and all that is left is his crazy Kremlin conspiracies against Biden and Dems.

Every question you don't want to answer (under oath) or that exposes you to liability would disappear in a cloud of attorney/client or executive privilege claims. What would be the point of calling Trump's personal attorney to testify?
