Twisted day in court for Trump’s lawyer – VG

Donald Trump’s lawyer has been tricked by “Borat”, summoned to a press conference in a parking lot, and yesterday he had a lead-heavy comeback in court after a 28-year break.

The weekend after the presidential election, a press conference was convened in the fashionable Four Seasons Hotel in Philadelphia, a four-star hotel close to the city center with its own spa and several function rooms. Here, Trump’s team was to explain its allegations of electoral fraud.

But it turned out that a miss had happened, and a press conference was held in the parking lot of a horticultural company also called “Four Seasons”, located between a sex shop and a crematorium on the outskirts of Philadelphia.

Here, presidential lawyer Rudy Giuliani (76) announced that there would be a flood of lawsuits from the president’s team. But as the vast majority of these have been rejected in court, Giuliani himself has taken over the responsibility. According to The New York Times, he takes $ 20,000 a day for work.

Be mayor

Giuliani, a former popular mayor of New York, has been controversial as Trump’s personal lawyer. American intelligence believes he was fooled by misinformation from the Russian authorities, and just before the election he was made fun of with a hidden camera by the filmmakers in the film “Borat”.

The “Hand Grenade” Rudy Giuliani: – He has ruined his legacy

On Thursday night, Giuliani seemed somewhat confused when he brought a case in a federal court for the first time in three decades, writes the Washington Post.

The Trump campaign’s hopes of winning the presidential election in court were not bolstered by Giuliani’s efforts in court this week. It was the first time since the 1990s that Giuliani brought a case in a federal court, and Judge Matthew W. Brann seemed several times to lose patience with the lawyer, writes the Washington Post.

Stop the election result

The case Giuliani had taken to court was the Republicans’ attempt to stop the approval of the election result in Pennsylvania. Giuliani’s case is based on the fact that two voters who voted for Trump were not allowed to change their ballots after a mistake, which they claim Biden voters were allowed to do.

– You claim that two individual plaintiffs were refused to vote. But basically, you are asking this court to invalidate more than 6.8 million votes. Can you tell me how this can be justified, the judge said.

Giuliani replied that it was only a matter of invalidating 680,000 votes, as Republican observers were not allowed to attend the count. But Giuliani had forgotten that part of the lawsuit had been withdrawn by his own team.

– The accusations around the observers were withdrawn, they are no longer a case complained to this court, so why should I consider them, the judge asked.

Giuliani replied that they would re-file the lawsuit – for the third time – and take up this claim again.

Confused

The 76-year-old seemed confused several times, writes the Washington Post. Among other things, he did not understand what the judge meant when a deadline was set on Wednesday to submit a response to the other party’s claim to dismiss the lawsuit.

In another exchange, it was the word opacity that confused Giuliani.

– I’m not quite sure what that means. That probably means you can see?

– That means you can not, the judge replied.
