Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani has drawn a new line in the sand in the constant back and forth over a possible meeting between Special Counsel Robert Mueller and President Donald Trump.
On Sunday, Giuliani told the Wall Street Journal that Trump would not sit down with Mueller after September 1 as to not interfere with the midterm elections.
“We certainly won’t do it after September 1, because we’re not going to be the ones to interfere with the election,” Giuliani said. “Let him [Mueller] get all the bad publicity and the attacks for that.”
Giuliani added that if the result of Mueller’s investigation is a negative report, it’s still better to get its release out of the way as soon as possible.
“A negative report gets it over with,” Giuliani told the Wall Street Journal. “We can answer it with, I think, a better report from us, and then we get to wait and see what happens in Congress.”
Giuliani doubled down on his red line on Fox and Friends Monday morning, saying that there is “no reason” Mueller can’t have his entire report done by September 1 since he “has all the answers.”

More fake news, Rudy
Everybody knows the correct answer is “due to Infrastructure Week.”
I’m shocked!
NOT!
Like he’ll never release his taxes, tramp will never meet for questions with Mueller.
Mommyeeeeee, I need another drink of water!
So, if this is DT’s excuse, the Democrats MUST refuse to participate in Kavanaugh hearings before the midterms. They should be refusing to do this already, but Republicans can not be the only ones to play this card. If Dems take this monolithic, principled stand, anything the R’s do will be illegitimate. Hell, the entire last 20 months have been illegitimate…
Giuliani is royally f_cked up!
