Preet Bharara: Giuliani’s Undercutting a Key Trump Defense on Ukraine
RUSH EXCERPT:
BHARARA: “Yeah, I’m not prepared to say that he is or is not breaking the law but what he is doing is increasing jeopardy for himself and also making it harder for the president to put forth his arguments. The Tweets and all of the statement he’s making on the way of Ukraine and from Ukraine as you pointed out he’s making the point that everything that Donald Trump cared about and the references to corruption that Donald Trump said is the reason why broadly speaking he wanted there to be an investigation with respect to Ukraine, it was all related to Joe Biden and Hunter Biden and making it clearer than ever before out of the mouth of the lawyer’s president himself that corruption was synonymous with investigation of Joe and Hunter Biden and that undercuts one of the most broad sweeping and significant defenses of the president. So he’s making trouble for himself certainly. But also making Trump for the president.”
