In the next chapter of “Everything that Trump touches turns to shit” (37,494,832 chapters so far) Rudy Giuliani is broke, disbarred, facing multiple fines and sanctions, and now facing racketeering and other charges in the Georgia investigation, so his legal fees will only keep mounting. He’s already had to sell his Manhattan condo. Maybe he can rent a back room at Four Seasons Total Landscaping, where I understand he has an established business relationship. > **[Giuliani struggling under massive legal bills after defending Trump | CNN...](https://www.cnn.com/2023/08/15/politics/giuliani-money-lawsuits-trump/index.html)** > > Rudy Giuliani is staring down hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal bills and sanctions amid numerous lawsuits in addition to the new criminal charges – related to his work for Donald Trump after the 2020 election. ---

> [@JKellyMap](#): > > I’m impressed with her focus on the big picture here. It’s so true — happy as we may be as we see justice (we hope) prevail, more profoundly it’s just awful that it had to come to this. I feel sorry for Carter, Clinton, Bush and Obama having to watch someone so tarnish the office of the presidency. For all their faults, I think they took the job seriously, had a respect for its history and wanted America to thrive and be a force for good in the world. At least we know Trump will never be associated with any former-presidents activities. ---

He could also apply for a job at the dildo shop next door to try to afford that rent. Though he might bring disrepute on the establishment, so they’d likely reject his application. ---
