Rudy Giuliani, President Donald Trump’s personal attorney, uploaded a video that included footage of him doing a racist imitation of a Chinese person on Wednesday.

The video, which had been posted on Giuliani’s YouTube channel before it was deleted, was extended footage of Giuliani’s interview with former White House press secretary Sean Spicer earlier this week.

In it, Giuliani tells his assistant, Jayne Zirkle, that she’s “going to be the most famous model in China,” then speaks with a mock Chinese accent.

“Ah, get me Jayne Zirkle. Jayne Zirkle,” he says.

The bit goes on for a while, with Giuliani using the accent again after asking “What would you like for dinner?”

“Jayne Zirkle. Jayne Zirkle. Jayne Zirkle. Jayne Zirkle,” the attorney repeats over and over while bowing back and forth.

The Daily Beast first reported the video, which has since been removed.

    Rudy Giuliani’s continual devolution and debasement into this helpless drooling court jester is immeasurably satisfying to me.

  3. “Jayne Zirkle. Jayne Zirkle. Jayne Zirkle. Jayne Zirkle,” the attorney repeats over and over while bowing back and forth.

    Very important news.

  4. I think Giuliani has as much dementia as Trump. That bit made no sense at all. They’re both decompensating at a rapid pace.

  5. This made me think of Mr Wu in Deadwood yelling Scwengen! (Swearengen) except Mr Wu is actually Chinese.
