Giuliani went from RICO charge prosecutor to a defendant in Fulton County DA Fani Willis’ RICO case over Trump’s alleged 2020 election interference.

    If Giuliani had retired from public life in the years after 9/11 he would have had a positive entry in the history of the USA.

    Now?

    Well…

      The praise he received after 9/11 was how I first heard his name. Shining example of “You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.”

        My sister lived in New York for a decade before 9/11. You do not want to know what the New Yorkers thought of Guiliani.

          Yep. The guy has always been a total tool all his life. 9/11 gave him a positive reaction for people outside NYC.

        New Yorker here.

        It was out of town newspapers/media that pushed Rudy. Locals knew that he’d fumbled the terrorism ball dozens of times. Police and Fire Department were using incompatible radios and weren’t able to coordinate efforts; his anti-terror HQ was destroyed on the day because he didn’t listen to the experts who told him to put it in Brooklyn.

        No one in NYC was priaisning him on 9/12.
