The Rudy Thread

Haven't read the whole thread, but with this

uh, we can has Logan Act charges?

Seems like he was negotiating with foreign government(s) as a private citizen. Maybe Ukraine doesn't meet the threshold for having a 'dispute' with the US, but controversy? Plenty of that, it seems. Let's bring the LA into the 21st century! Punishment is a little weak - fine and/or imprisonment up to 3 years - but it's a start.

Where has Rudy been since his buddies were pinched?

He was all over every network before that.

Did he catch his one way flight to Vienna after all?

Has anyone checked inside all of his cousins yet?

This man has his own take on the Rudy tale. I agree with those that say Barr needs to recuse himself here but he won't do it. In too deep.

Rudy will roll.  He has no leverage and is at Trump’s mercy.  He won’t go to jail.

Rudy might pull a Manafort and fake roll.  

Manafort’s gambit with Mueller was oddly effective for Trump because Manafort completely annihilated his own credibility and managed to avoid the more politically damaging second trial.  You know, the trial with the conspiracy and obstruction crimes that never happened.

The real question is just how deep is Giuliani in bed with Eastern European organized crime?

I’d speculate deep as fuck.

Rudi has been at the heart of this whole thing from the beginning, and I’d be shocked if one of the Mueller sealed indictments didn’t have his name on it.

Hell, it’s almost certain that he was driving all that nonsense with the NY FBI field office in the lead up to the 2016 election.

It’s not a coincidence that he’s going all in on this crazy train... he literally has everything to lose because he’s entirely compromised and complicit.

Shot in the back five times, or as they say in Russia, “natural causes.”

What you need to understand is Rudy is far more qualified to deal with corruption than Hunter is to deal with oil and gas.  The real problem is compensating people for work beyond their scope of expertise.

Rudy ain't gonna fake roll. Rudy and Donald are the two people in this administration who will burn it to the ground in order to escape any punishment.

It’s going to be beautiful if all of the Russian stuff coalesces around Rudy.   Trump only hires The Best People.  

Trump has got to be sweating harder than usual.   He can’t pardon Rudy (and hell, that might be obstruction in and of itself), and Rudy will never spend a day in jail.

What makes you think Trump can't, or won't, pardon Rudy if Trump determines it's something he wants to do?  I understand the obstruction angle, but I guaran-fucking-tee you Trump doesn't.  And no other laws have stopped him in his entire life.  So I'm genuinely curious what makes you think Trump will act differently in this instance?

I didn't know it was possible to sweat through spray tan? Also, pigs don't have sweat glands.

Because he has yet to pardon anybody who directly worked for him on the campaign stuff, etc., who is currently facing charges/investigations, or who is in prison?

Because pardons are literally an admission of guilt?  

Because Rudy is also in so deep, I suspect that Trump sees him as scapegoat.

While true at the moment, I'm sure Miller has a whole file of pardons drafted up and neatly stowed right between his "Medal of Freedom for miscreants" file and his lifetime supply of personal lube, ready to go at the moment it appears Presidential power will be taken away from Trump.

Rudy is totally Harvey Dent

[Asithappens 978]

For Rudy, and maybe many others, the tipping point could come quickly and rapidly, kinda like Hemingway's comment on bankruptcy: gradually, then suddenly.

I don't consider Rudy to be an abject moron and lacking experience, like so many of Trump's other lackeys. If he et al see that the shit storm is about to hit blizzard levels there could be a massive rat exodus from the USS Dotard. 

If/when that happens it's going to be interesting to see how some Senate Republicans act. The cowardly House set is already "retiring".
