Michael Avenatti said that he loves it when Rudy Giuliani talks because he digs Trump’s hole deeper by making damaging admissions.
Giuliani said:
Asked about shifting explanations for statement on Trump Tower meeting, Rudy Giuliani tells @GStephanopoulos:
"This is the reason you don't let the president testify. Our recollection keeps changing, or we're not even asked a question and somebody makes an assumption." pic.twitter.com/DLQsGbfGhA

Avenatti tweeted:
This is why I love it every time Mr. Giuliani speaks. He just acknowledged that BEFORE he joined Mr. Trump’s team on Apr. 19, Trump was aware of the repayment to Cohen and lied about it. Rudy: under the law that’s called an “admission” and it’s very damaging. Pls keep talking. https://t.co/DJYMhYb0uh

Rudy Giuliani has a had quite a busy Sunday. So far, he has encouraged a legal theory that will lead to Trump becoming the first president in history to virtually impeach himself, and he has admitted that Trump knew about the repayment to Michael Cohen and he lied about it. Trump and Giuliani think that they are winning the battle for public opinion with these interviews, but what they are accomplishing is losing in court and potentially getting Trump thrown out of office.
Avenatti was right. The best chance for the nation to rid itself of the corrupt burden of Trump is if Rudy Giuliani keeps talking.
