Happening to be in the right place at the wrong time and exploiting a tragedy for his own benefit was Rudy's political bread and butter. 9/11 was a mother load of goodwill for him.
Then he decided to work for Trump, and now he's a bankrupt pariah who will forever be remembered as the guy who was melting on camera in a landscaping company's parking lot 100ft from a dildo store.
Exactly. His great reputation after 9/11 wasn't earned, but he could have coasted for the rest of his life as "America's Mayor" talking about how great he was during 9/11. People who looked into the details would have known better, but 90% of the public would have thought him a hero.
But then he needed to go all in on Trump and Trump's attempt to overthrow the election. Now, even if people don't know how he wasn't really "America's Mayor" on 9/11, they know him as the hair dye leaking incompetent conspiracy theorist of a lawyer for Trump who tried and failed to overturn the election.
Rudy Giuliani is a neverending source of schadenfreude.
It's my hope, that things get so much worse for him that he ends up remembering Four Seasons as a good day.
Now, now, the landscape company and hair dye meltdown were two DIFFERENT events. :)
The landscape company one was where he learned, live on camera, Trump lost.
