Rudy Giuliani wants to defend Donald Trump by repeating the accusations of electoral fraud.
Now the president is being warned about impossible tactics.
– Then there is a high probability that he will be convicted, former Republican Karl Rove tells Fox News.
The president’s personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, 76, made a big comeback Saturday night after a few unusual weeks in the shadows. After constantly being around for the first few months after the election with its countless attacks on voter fraud, it has been relatively quiet about it since the Christmas holidays.
Before appearing at the White House, he gave an interview to ABC News in which he confirmed that he was involved in the preparations for the defense of Donald Trump in the Senate impeachment.
Giuliani has ready the strategy of how he wants to deal with the defense of the president: take all accusations of electoral fraud one more turn. The tactic is to make Donald Trump’s proposals and attacks that the election was stolen seem reasonable.

He wants to bring up electoral fraud again
And in that case, you cannot be held guilty of inciting a riot and held responsible for the sympathizers’ assault on the Capitol that left five people, including a police officer, dead and forced members of Congress to flee the chamber when the mob razed the building.
– Basically they claim that every time Trump says “electoral fraud, electoral fraud”, or me or someone else, it is an incitement to violence. That these words are provocative because they are not true, Rudy Giuliani tells ABC News.
– But if you can prove them to be true, or at least true enough to be a legitimate position, then it is no longer an incitement.
However, he admitted in the interview with the television channel that there are “different opinions” on how the president should approach the Supreme Court.
President Trump has yet to decide which attorney or law firm will represent him in the shameful attack on the constitution and democracy, known as the “Supreme Court scam.” We will be back, “Hogan Gidley, Trump’s campaign press secretary, wrote on Twitter Sunday.
The interview with Rudy Giuliani and his proposed strategy received a lot of attention Sunday in the United States. And many were skeptical of the lawyer’s tactics.
Karl Rove, George W. Bush’s former White House adviser, says that the fact that a two-thirds majority is required to fall in the Senate would normally mean that the president can feel calm. The rules require, in this case, that 17 Republican members vote in favor if all Democrats do the same.
– Normally I would say that there is not much risk of falling, but I think that the statements of Majority Leader McConnell are a sign that every Republican senator should take this seriously. “I think it will all depend on the defense that the president decides,” Karl Rove told Fox News.

Trump warns Rudy
And there he saw Rudy Giuliani’s strategy in full, and warns Donald Trump that it could lead to disaster in the Senate.
– Rudy Giuliani suggested a very bad course of action for the president when he said it could not have been inciting because all the accusations are true. But the allegations and the alleged experts hired by the campaign to represent them have been rejected by more than 50 courts with judges appointed by President Trump, President Obama, President Bush, President Clinton and I believe even a Reagan judge says Karl. Travel to Fox News.
– So if it’s Rudy Giuliani’s defense, it’s very likely that more than 17 Republican members of the Senate will fall. Because then the argument is in principle that the attack on the Capitol and the attempt to stop the control bill in Congress was justified because the accusations were true. And frankly, they weren’t.
Rudy Giuliani also told ABC News that he is no stranger to letting President Trump testify during Senate hearings. Something that his lawyers did not want him to do during the previous Supreme Court.
But according to Rudy Giuliani, this time it is different and the defense before this Supreme Court is much simpler.
– You always make that decision at the last second. As a lawyer, this time he wouldn’t be so reluctant, he tells ABC News.
In recent weeks, there have been reports in the American media that Rudy Giuliani has incited the ire of Donald Trump through his hefty bills for his election wars across the country. It has been said that the president no longer wanted to take his call.

But at the same time, Rudy Giuliani is also said to be one of the few who still has the ear of the president by being by his side all the time.
And according to CNN, Giuliani is believed to have one of the seats on the team that will defend Trump. John Eastman, the conservative attorney who falsely led the president to believe that Pence could invalidate Electoral College votes, is also at stake, the television station claims.
The Supreme Court hearings will begin after Joe Biden has assumed the presidency. Everything can be activated only when the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, sends the documents to the Senate.
Lindsey appeals in a letter
Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, who welcomed the Supreme Court against the President, will have handed over the majority to Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer.
On Sunday, Senator Lindsey Graham, a personal friend of the president, wrote an open letter to Schumer requesting that the Senate vote to cancel the Supreme Court.
“The attempt by the Senate to disqualify a president from running again would be an unconstitutional political revenge,” he wrote.
If the Senate overthrows Donald Trump by a two-thirds majority, it only takes a simple majority to prevent him from becoming president, or holding any other kind of political office, for the rest of his life. He previously opened to run in the 2024 presidential elections.
