Any New Yorkers here? I'm interested in your perspective on Giuliani. I only have a cursory knowledge of him. He first came to my attention when he made headlines busting some crime family as a DA way back when. Then he was in the news a lot as the mayor of NYC during 9/11. He seemed pretty respected at the time? I dunno. And next thing you know, he resurfaces as an enforcer for the Trump administration, winding up getting disbarred and generally shunned by society. I guess I'm curious as to whether he was always a scumbag or grew into the role?
He was always a scum bag, but 911 made him seem like a golden boy for a little while.
Yep, this.
