Bill Maher Goes Off on Rudy Giuliani and Trump: ‘They’re Both F*ckin’ Senile!’

It’s been a very, very bizarre week.

On Wednesday night, Rudy Giuliani—who’s spent all of two weeks as a member of President Trump’s legal team—appeared on Sean Hannity’s Trump Pravda program and claimed that Trump fired FBI Director James Comey because he would not “say that he wasn’t a target of the investigation,” and that lawyer Michael Cohen not only “funneled” the Stormy Daniels hush money through “a law firm,” but that “the president repaid it.” This, of course, ran contrary to claims made by both President Trump and his attorney/fixer Michael Cohen that Trump was unaware of the payoff in the final weeks of the presidential election.

If that weren’t enough, The New York Times reported on Friday night that Trump indeed knew about the Daniels payment months before Giuliani’s Fox News reveal.

“So Rudy Giuliani, as you know, replaces Michael Cohen. That was his lawyer. So, Rudy’s in for Michael Cohen. He’s traded a lawyer who carries a bat for a lawyer who turns into one,” joked Bill Maher during his Real Time monologue Friday night.  

“And Rudy had a very rough beginning,” he continued. “Admitted that Trump fired Comey because of the Russia investigation; admitted that Trump reimbursed Cohen for the Stormy Daniels payoff; admitted that Trump knew about the hush money to Stormy Daniels. I think the person that needs money to hush is Rudy.”

Maher was completely beside himself with Giuliani’s Hannity reveal(s), including the claim that Trump’s Daniels money—which he alleges to have no knowledge of—were included as part of Cohen’s $35,000 monthly retainer.

“This is a brilliant legal strategy called ‘confessing,’” Maher joked. “So, according to Rudy, here’s what we’re supposed to believe: that Trump has a default arrangement with his lawyer that if any porn star anywhere in America that I banged in a golf club says she did, you don’t have to check with me, just pay her.”

And Trump has repeatedly tried to walk back Giuliani’s Hannity statements, which caught Maher by surprise.

“You know you’ve hit rock bottom when Trump is cleaning up your quotes,” said Maher. “They’re both fuckin’ senile. Guys, you gotta write your lies down! You know how it is at that age. Sometimes, you walk into a room and you forget what lie you came in there for.”
