Amid a host of lawsuits and now criminal charges tied to his efforts to overturn the 2020 election, Giuliani is expected to take in more than $1 million for his legal defense fund at a $100,000-a-plate fundraiser hosted by Trump Thursday evening. It is the first of two fundraisers Trump is expected to sponsor for Giuliani.
Others have encouraged the former president to cut Giuliani loose. Andrew Giuliani blamed some Trump aides for suggesting there was a wedge between them. During his WABC interview, he said that his father was willing to tell Trump when he “sees somebody that’s yessing him to death” who isn’t giving the former president good information. “And guess what – some of those people don’t like Rudy Giuliani for doing that,” Andrew Giuliani said.
