Remember that Rudy is possibly the single greatest crime fighter in American history. He almost singlehandedly took down the Mafia. He's so nonchalant about it because busting criminals like the Bidens was quite literally what he did for his entire career.

Not to mention that lots of people including many here on TD were saying that he'd lost his marbles and was full of tick tock bs. I'm sure he's got a little swagger going because of the massive vindication.

Yup. Rudy is a badass. Don’t let the fact that he’s an old man fool you. Rudy transformed NYC from an absolute shit hole to the average shit hole you see today. Look at Times Square in the 80s vs today..... totally different world.

People don’t realize what he did for NYC. I grew up north of NYC and as a kid we took the train down every weekend in 1991 because of a family member in the hospital. We didn’t ride the subways because they were full of piss, homeless people, and graffiti.

Rudy took over in 1994 and by 1996 (maybe sooner) he had completely cleaned up the city. We like to make fun of Mini Mike Bloomberg (and rightfully so) but he was smart enough to continue Rudy’s policies when he took over in 2001. The city didn’t go to shit again until DeBlasio took over in 2014.

Today...? Can we roll that point of comparison back a couple years?

It's called vindication. People even in MAGA circles were saying he lost it. I remember during the impeachment he was so giddy and they essentially shut him down. Trump never waivered though. I remember Steve Hilton on Fox criticized Rudy harshly and Steve received blowback from people around the President that he had to apologize on his next show.

I would not want to play poker with 45. The shit he knows, and has the testicular fortitude to only speak around it very precisely.

Amazing.
