That top comment cracks me up

No one should be applauding what has happened to Trump or his associates. Our country is so divided that we should all be sure we are standing for the "traditional" rule of law and we should not be accepting any ruling that has politicized the law no matter what side of the political spectrum we are associated with.

Lmao

"traditional" rule of law

Wherein white men aren’t held to account and you can buy your own justice with enough money.

Wherein women who are victims are told to shut up lest their own reputations are ruined for accusing any white men.

Yeah. That’s what we should strive for. /hard S

Rudy wanted to be known as a "law and order" mayor who was going to clean up New York by strictly enforcing every law. He went after beggars and homeless folks as if they were Mafia dons. He had zero problems with humiliating hard working city workers when he could make himself look good. Now he's bankrupt because he thought he could libel election workers.

He could have rested on his unearned laurels as a 9/11 hero, but his ego forced him to suck up to Donald Trump.

Enjoy the consequences of your own actions.

Note that everyone Rudy enforced the law on was middle class and lower, not the wealthy.

There have been hundreds of people who died of '9/11 Disease.' People worked at the Ground Zero pit for months without respirators because the Bush EPA claimed the air was safe. Rudy did nothing for those folks, and as far as I know, didn't attend a single funeral.

Jon Stewart for President.

If he had actually enforced the law while he was mayor of NY, Trump would have gone down long ago

Was he law and order when he lost his first mayoral election and took the police down to occupy city hall because they were all sad that a black man became elected? It truly is amazing how people like him can pick and choose what they want to hold dear.

Have you tried not being a traitorous, law-breaking asshole Rudy? Cause that seems to work fine for me. 🤷

Let's be fair here, it works okay.

I'm certainly not rich for it but at least I have my dignity and my wife loves me (I hope)

I'd love to see a waterbear playing a violin between it's little fingers.

Does it bug anyone else that this is a cello?

Not picking on you at all. I’ve seen this meme a few times on Lemmy. I mean I still think it’s funny.

I guess I didn't look that close. It definitely does look like a cello on closer inspection. Also, I've now noticed the WB is playing the bow below the bridge, and which would make some terrible music (aka noise).

Well I didn’t even notice that one. Thanks, now it bugs me even more 😉

Crazy, it's almost as if the people who they fucked over are taking legal action against them.

Mind blown, how did this happen!?

My my, if it isn't a tiny microscopic fraction of the consequences of his own actions

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.... Good.

I’m sorry, but I don’t believe it for one second. The rich have numerous ways to hide money.

What if, and hear me out, he’s got plenty of money stashed away around the world, he just doesn’t want to spend it. Instead, he wants to file bankruptcy to make it go away, or someone else to bail him out with their money so he doesn’t have to spend his. It’s not like he doesn’t have a well proven track record of being a liar and a fraud.

first thing i would do if i became mega rich.

i'd bury gold bars in secret locations all over the world.

just as an insurance policy

Yeah the guy who cleared out the Italian mob for the Russian mob to move in (think that happened under him) would have money hidden properly...If not he's as clueless as someone caught on camera thinking he'll commit statutory rape for fun. Even if he's not that clueless he may have thought himself untouchable. Trump only keeps idiots around as long as he was.

The rest of us are also trapped in a nightmare world that Rudy helped create. Thanks Rudy!

Good. Fuck this paedophile fascist and all his fascist buddies.

I wish hell was real so he could rot in it, but I’ll settle for the rest of his life being ruined, his fortunes forfeit, and hopefully some jail time.

I also urge any of the young women he’s abused to come forward. I know that’s very hard, believe me, but this bastard needs to be held to account in every way possible. You will have support.

The sooner you stroke out, the sooner it will all be over, traitor.

Have another $40 glass of Mar-a-Lago watered down booze, Rudy.

I can’t imagine anyone having sympathy for this clown.

Did he go woke?

The definition of ‘woke’ is ‘having social empathy’ so no, he’s entirely incapable of that.

Rudy "Play Stupid Games, Get Stupid Prizes" Giuliani

Rudy Giuliani in a nightmare world? Does anyone see any downsides with that?

Only that it also seems to be the same world we’re occupying

Does Trump and his allies spiraling down the drain give you nightmares?

It’s more that this entire scenario exists, I’d rather be in a world where none of this happened.

Yep, a world without Trump and Giuliani would definitely be better.

I'm good, you?

I'm totally fine with it. One could make a movie out of it: Nightmare on Court Street.

No one should be applauding what has happened to Trump or his associates. Our country is so divided that we should all be sure we are standing for the "traditional" rule of law and we should not be accepting any ruling that has politicized the law no matter what side of the political spectrum we are associated with.

couldn't have said it better myself, DJ from the comment section. the fact that Giuliani continues to say things like the "Biden regmie" to trick conservative supporters is disgusting, but what else is someone like him going to do when they are this desperate..

Rudy says 'Biden regime' because he is a Russian stooge and Putin loves calling his opposition a regime. Just doing the bidding of his master.

Per Wikipedia:

In politics, a regime (also "régime") is the form of government or the set of rules, cultural or social norms, etc., that regulate the operation of a government or institution and its interactions with society. The two broad categories of regimes that appear in most literature are democratic and autocratic.

So there is of course a "regime" ruling the US, it's mostly democratic system that Biden, and as of yet Trump is also part of. Anyone outside of that regime wants serious changes about how the US is led, and is not participating in the current system - where the only real rule is that change in leadership is at least supposed to be by the people and bloodless. Point is, if you are not part of the "Biden regime", which is basically the democratic system the US has, you are calling for a violent overthrow of it by a minority.

Words should have meaning, and he should definitely be called out on publicly supporting sedition.

yup, and some people just can't see they're being played for fools... how do we stop this? like, what else are we to do other than vote?

he should have stayed away from trump,that guy is walking,living, breathing troubles.

US during the trump era were basically a shit storm.i cannot imagine him getting a 2nd or 3rd term in office.

Were? Hmm. Were. Not mutually exclusive with are. Yes were fits.

relax,storms can get worse, better or remains the same.

there wasn't any implied suggestions on my end to say US isn't still in a shit storm or the storm got worst or better.

the schadenfreude is thick with this one, mr rotten teeth havin a bad time? snookums

Doesn’t Florida block homesteads from being grabbed by creditors in bankruptcy proceedings?

Yes, but I believe he's being sued to sell his Florida condo to answer a judgement he owes

ROFL! This is great news to end a day on. Love hearing it!

Suffer asshole! You deserve it.
