In the crescendo to his frenzied media tour to mitigate the fallout from Michael Cohen’s tapes, Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani walked back his assertion that President Donald Trump definitely did not know about the infamous Trump Tower meeting.
In an abrupt departure from his statements just four days ago, Giuliani told CNN’s Alisyn Camerota Monday that “nobody can be sure of anything” when she asked how he could be sure that Trump did not know about the meeting beforehand.
On Thursday, Giuliani had told Camerota’s fellow CNN anchor Chris Cuomo: “[Trump] didn’t know about it. I know that. I’ve been over this in great detail.”
Giuliani is suddenly uncertain about circumstances surrounding the meeting as well, as he dodged a definitive answer when Camerota asked him if the unknown number Don Jr. called just before and after the meeting was the President’s.
“I don’t know,” Giuliani said before pivoting to other subjects.

“nobody can be sure of anything”
Though not yet certain, I am gathering anecdotal evidence that Giuliani is an alien
. One with a giant planet-devouring asshole.
Jebus on a Vespa, Rudy, you are the world’s worst lawyer.
In a rational world, absolutely nothing said by Giuliani would ever be taken seriously.
The more complex a lie, the harder it is to keep straight. That’s true x10,000 when you’re improvising in real-time.
“Nobody can be sure of anything”
Mueller can, and will be. Also watch and see how sure America will be of its collective opinion of Giuliani after this deplorable debacle is over.
