rudy guiliani was on speaker phone, and basically rudy told by sources accused the trump campaign lawyers of lying to the president because they had been telling the president that it was a steep uphill climb, that the odds were against him to win this lawsuit to do anything to change the outcome of the election. rudy said they were liars for telling the president that in that he thought the president could win through some of these conspiracy theories that have been thrown out there, and one of the aides, you pointed out, justin clark, deputy campaign manager fired back dropping the f bomb essentially. it was the next day, brianna, we're told the president took rudy's side essentially and put rudy in charge of his legal strategy, if you call it that. right now as we speak, in fact,

and that was rudy giuliani. he became a metaphor for the campaign melting into a dark puddle of deception. so what did this day mean for the future of that effort and our efforts to do anything about this pandemic? let's talk politics, pandemic. david gregory, anthony scaramucci. gentlemen, thank you for your patience. david, where does this leave the trump effort after what we saw today with rudy? >> well, i thought your takedown was complete and doesn't need to be added to. >> you must. >> it is a farce. sorry? >> you must. >> i must add to it. look, i mean it is a farce, and i think what republicans in washington have been waiting for is the rather quick burn of the legal challenges without evidence to play themselves out so they don't have to actually stand up and say that what's happening here is an actual erosion of democracy and failure of government during a medical crisis that is global. so this isn't just giving the old guy some room to lick his wounds. as our reporting from dana and gloria indicate, t

his audience about rudy's performance. >> in pennsylvania, rudy giuliani argued the case today.om more than a few people that he was absolutely brilliant in his arguments today. >> seth: maybe he was saying it the way british people use "brilliant" to mean "funny." did you see mr. bean fall down that escalator into the savory pie display? brilliant, absolutely brilliant. fun fact, the original title of hannity's show was "mr. the man who is very angry at me. we're in the midst of several crises colliding at once the destruction of american democracy, a deadly plague that killed 1,500 americans just yesterday alone. and we're seeing once again the republican party simply does not care about either. it's an authoritarian movement willing to wreck the american system and stand idly by while americans die. even after trump leaves office, what we're seeing now is that trumpism will very much remain at least we can be sure that what we here at "late night" are calling the kooky cuckoo coup crew will almost certainly fail. and for now there won't be - >> a second trump administration >

that's where rudy's focus is. he's been pushing that with trump and making him think there is a chance if he pushes with these legal cases that really are just a long shot. the ones that are happening right now are just a long shot. we are seeing some shake up with rudy at the helm now. today there was the second set of lawyers who will replace in the pennsylvania case. i am told that was directly related to rudy. >> i am sure it is a cracked team who have replaced them and appointed by rudy giuliani. >> family members who did not agree with this approach. >> there are two camps here. one camp you have rudy giuliani aligned with the president's son and son-in-law. >> great company. >> they have the attitude of we just need to keep fighting and never give up. guns ablazing. that's one camp. everyone else is in consensus that there is nor path he path the president. and ivanka trump and jared kushner and the trump's campaign lawyers, they know there is no chance for the president to o r overcome this. they toll td t

maria: rudy before you go, where is ag barr on this? if this was systemic and everybody has all this evidence where is the doj? >> the answer to that is i don't know and i can't worry about it and when you say we were flat-footed that really isn't fair. i mean, we had about 8,000 people out there and they started registering these complaints at about 8:00 in the morning, and the legal team here took action immediately all during election day we were bringing actions in court to preserve this. it takes a while to collect 2,000 affidavits of which we have about half now. maria: okay so in other words you're saying that will the president concede anytime soon i guess is my final question. given all of this. >> it really be wrong for him at this point it be wrong for him to concede. there is strong evidence that this was an election that at least three or four states and possibly 10, it was stolen. in other words it was based on false votes. now you can't let that election go into history without challengeing that. maria: how do you will it

bush couldn't find his voice, rudy giuliani found his. president bush when he got to new york, stood on top of the pile of rubble he found his voice, but speaking of interludes there was an interlude between the attack and that moment and rudy giuliani was the one who stepped to the front and told us we were going to be okay. as a new yorker, i know i have gone on about this, but i just got to say, we forget who this guy was as a new yorker. what are your thoughts about seeing rudy giuliani going up and embarrassing himself and, i mean, let me just say, where the hell is his family stopping him from doing this? >> i'm glad you asked me about that, because i was feeling the same exact thing. i can never think of a public figure, such a tragic demise. mika's favorite visual of the hair dye running down his face is going to be his legacy. when you contrast it to the "time" magazine's america's mayor, and then this teetering, lost, old man who reminded me -- i want to say this the right way, sometimes in new york city it's sad, we have homele

and now, he's finally had it with rudy giuliani? where ya been? he's upset with rudy giuliani. losing patience with the man, who used to be known as america's mayor. giuliani, tonight, admitting that he exaggerates, a bit, about voter fraud. just a bit. >> the city of detroit probably had more voters than it had citizens. i'm exaggerating a bit. but all you have to do is look at statistical data, and you can see that the fraud was rampant and out of control. >> well, remember, he admitted he is exaggerating, right? and then, there's legal adviser, as trump would say, what a beauty. he loves that word. what a beauty. talking about jenna ellis, laughably, insisting the election was stolen and trump won, in a landslide. that that's the kind of dangerous stuff they're still spewing in conservative media. people are still buying it and they know it's a bunch of bs. it's not true, at all. do the right thing for the country. country, before party. country, before whatever it is that you're doing. the two of them throwing attorney sydney -- i'm talking about rudy giuliani and jenna ell

rudy called them liars. in response, the deputy campaign manager, justin clark, fired back at him and called him an effing a-hole. the next day, rudy giuliani was put in charge by president trump. so he went up and the trump campaign lawyers descended, essentially, as it was put to me. rudy's strategy is to fight to the bitter end and focus on conspiracy theories. rudy has been in the president's ear pushing these conspiracy theories about election software made by the company dominion and allegedly changing votes. there is no evidence to support this. dmon yon dominion's come out to refute it. there's been no evidence shown. but that is really where rudy's focus is. and i am told by sources he's really been pushing that with trump, and making him think that there is a chance, if he pushes, you know, with these legal cases, that really are just a long shot. the ones that are already happening right now are just a long shot. and we're already seeing some shakeup with rudy at the helm, now, anderson. today, th

but this is why he is still standing by rudy giuliani for now.e'll see if that changes after the performance as you described it because the president has been known to be a bit fickle on these things. >> i'm just saying, ben, i don't care how big a supporter of anyone you are, if you see that you're like ooh. >> yeah. >> yeah. and rudy giuliani, ben, is talking as if trump, the trump campaign, isn't getting their day in court with these accusations when really in reality they're losing. they're withdrawing their cases in droves. they're saying the exact opposite at that podium as to what's really playing out legally, what's really important. >> yeah, that's absolutely true. they've lost post-election. they've lost virtually everything they tried pre-election. but here's the way this is going to fall apart with republicans. what rudy giuliani said today about nationwide fraud would impact not only the president's election. you know what he's trying to do with that. but if it's a fraudulent election, then none of the republicans who were elected t

as much of people complaining of rudy giuliani, he still is the president's ear. that's important to know. it is not just a fund raising point. you may see resurgence of lawsuits. there is a recognition that the dominos are fallen in terms of the michigan's certification, that was key to emily murphy moving ahead with this. she did write her letter in a way that was clearly designed to not offend president trump. she did not refer to joe biden as president-elect at any point, she talked about threats of herself. i think a lot of different things that's going on here. mostly going on is the beginning of the end. >> was and legally ascertain and freezing up the money. >> the letter accomplished legally, something that the biden team has been making the case it was outrageous that it had been held up this long and it is not surprising that they have not made that case. that letter was written at least enough audience in mind. >> this was more or less as much of a concession as we'll ever get from president trump? >> absolutely. >> he'll probably take a step back in a

that trump didn't come out and trash rudy. he knows rudy killed him yesterday. he knows that rudy -- forget about -- i'm telling you, you know you have a bad day when your face melting on television is the least of your problems. >> he's the only one out there. but you know this, chris. he, rudy giuliani, is the only one out there willing to fight for the president, and that's something when you're donald trump, especially when you know you're fighting a losing battle, and he knows that. >> but he's all about optics, charlie, and his guy was melting on tv, literally blamed the entire universe and then said the key phrase that killed him, "we can prove it." they've been in court 30 times. they never proved anything. it killed the president yesterday. it ended yesterday. >> yeah. well, you know what? rudy was saying that the vote in philadelphia was stolen. well, if the philadelphia democrats were trying to steal the election, they did a really lousy job of it because biden underperformed hillary in pennsylvania. >> it would be the only conspiracy where the conspi

next, rudy giuliani is wrongly portraying the supreme court ruling.liani said that the court ordered they be set aside and not opened and the supreme court that they've done up to this point is to say that the ballots must be separated and that was in line with what the secretary of state mandated. finally here, the trump team continues to hammer the message of widespread voter fraud in democratic led cities like philadelphia and detroit and giuliani saying that philadelphia cheated in this election but look at the numbers here. this is out of wayne county, home to detroit, where president trump gained more votes this year than he did in 2016. in detroit, gained more than 35,000 votes this year over 2016. and now look at philadelphia county, home to philadelphia. president trump there received more than 24,000 votes this year than he did in 2016. so the takeaway here is this. this widespread claim of voter fraud in cities like philadelphia and detroit and other cities across the country, these claims of voter fraud, they're baseless. th they're going

just today rudy giuliani is now in self isolation because his son, andrew giuliani, an assistant to theresident, also tested positive for the virus. officials on the campaign also testing positive as well as mark meadows to just name a few public figures associated with the president in the last few weeks. clearly this is major news. don jr., known on social media for mocking people that wear masks. mocking joe biden for wearing masks. we should note that prthe pandec is still raging across the country and now is affecting his own son. >> it is really a significant moment. you point out so many people and now the president's son, donald trump jr. confirmed has covid-19. hopefully it will not be serious. we don't know. we don't know the long-term effects. there are a lot of people that had it that complain months down the road of memory loss and breathing, they can't exercise the way they used to exercise. there is so much we don't know about the disease and now donald trump jr. has it as well. we did learn, boris, that the secretary of housing and urban development, ben carson, he had c

rudy's having a brutal 2020.ean, a month ago, he got caught on film sticking his hand down his pants. wasn't even close to his worst moment [ light laughter ] i mean, not surprisingly, today, it came out that giuliani and other key members of trump's legal team have been exposed to the coronavirus but this is nice, rudy is offering to share his wet hanky with anyone who needs it [ light laughter ] rudy was tested and thankfully, the results were negative. which raises the question, how [ light laughter ] how is that possible i'm going to the store, i've got like 20 masks on, i'm wearing gloves and this guy is rubbing snot all over his face [ light laughter ] yep, when they gave rudy the covid test, you could almost hear the swab going, "no, no, no don't stick me you know what, i had a good run. i had a good run." speaking of the pandemic, today pfizer announced they have officially applied for emergency authorization for their vaccine, which means it could be approved for use as early as mid december. yeah appare

expensively about rudy guiliani. talk to us about his role now? >> well, you know, president trump is not the only person watching his power slip away. giuliani's relevance, his finances, are all tied up in his access to power to the white house. so, you know, while others in the white house are virtually throwing in the towel, giuliani's holding on to power by a thread. he's happy to throw gas on the fire. so he's, you know, throwing spaghetti against the wall trying every possible means to reverse the outcome of the election. it's an interesting situation, giuliani is not a shy person when it comes to tactics like this, and it looks, from what i understand, that no other lawyer really wants to try this anymore. so giuliani, he stepped in. he is not argued a case as far as i know since the 1980s when a celebrated prosecutor. that was a long time ago. >> yeah. decades ago. so is he being, handsomely compensated for his work? >> according to the "new york times" asking for $20,000 a day. you know, a lot of money, but

he was standing alongside rudy guiliani at that insane press conference they held last week where rudyscene from "my cousin vinny," called the philadelphia eagles a basketball team, and had what looked like droplets of cerebrospinal fluid leaking from his brain. i guess rudy dyed his hair frantically in a gas station bathroom like richard kimball in "the fugitive. i mean, if i saw that coming out of my radiator i would be pounding on my super's door. anyway, these are the only people trump has left, because no legitimate lawyer wants to be a part of this unhinged assault on american democracy. in fact, last week the trump legal team tried to delay that hearing in federal court to overturn the election because in pennsylvania, as reuters reported, most of his lawyers quit at this point the trump legal team is like cvs at midnight sure, they're open, but nobody actually works there and trump is like the guy trying to pay for arizona iced tea at the photo station register, who will wait for eternity and doesn't seem to mind but by far the craziest addition to the trump cinematic universe,

it's lights out at 8:00, rudy.ry good points can i finish my very -- they're very good points." it gets crazier, though, because that's the same press conference where rudy found out the networks had all called the race for trump, and this was his response >> who was it called by? >> all of networks >> all the -- oh my goodness all the networks wow! all the networks >> seth: you know rudy doesn't think it's official until it's called by the texaco star theater. sounds like he's on the phone with time warner customer service. "all right sir, we have several packages available, which channels would you like? >> all the networks! >> seth: but by far the best thing about this press conference was not what rudy said, but where he said it it brings us to the absolutely top part of the weekend. honestly, it was almost as good as trump losing. you see, the way we found out about this press conference was when trump tweeted, "lawyers news conference four seasons, philadelphia, 11:00 a.m." and then he deleted that tweet and

back to rudy giuliani. yes, he was standing there, but it's also noteworthy who was not standing there, who was not present today the attorneys who surrounded trump during the mueller days, the mueller investigation. what is rudy giuliani even doing right now? >> well, rudy giuliani is the one leading these efforts. you've seen how the president has changed legal teams in certain states. in pennsylvania you saw he was on his third set of attorneys by the time they actually got to court and arguing the case this eck would. that's why rudy giuliani was there talking about fraud. you're right. look at the legal team representing the president. the ones there, today you've got rudy giuliani, who, of course, republicans criticized heavily. former chief of staff questioned why he was there. another legal adviser advising in the trump campaign. she trashed the president just a few years ago saying his values were not american values and calling him things like an idiot and then sidney powell who is mike flynn -- c

representative vernon jones, a democrat fighting beside the president, and the president's personal attorney, rudy giuliani, all with us this hour. let's take now a look at the day's important developments in the fight to, if you will, true the vote and insure integrity. president trump's legal team in pennsylvaniaed today filed a lawsuit challenging the astronaut's electoral conduct. the state's electoral conduct. the campaign plans to file similar lawsuits in georgia and michigan over the coming days. at a press conference this weekend, rudy giuliani once again pointed to the fact that radical dems controlling philadelphia blocked republican poll watchers and republican attorneys from observing the vote. president trump followed up with this tweet today in which he said, quote: pennsylvania prevented us from watching much of the ballot count. unthinkable and illegal in this country.

joining me right now is former new york city mayor president trump's attorney, rudy giuliani. and rudy it is wonderful to have you this weekend thanks very much for being here. >> thank you for having me, maria. maria: so, i know that you've been working all weekend on this the first question everybody wants to know is what is the evidence the president has alluded to in terms of ballot fraud. what can you tell us? >> well, i mean first of all there's a lot of evidence let me see if i can summarize it by- state. some of the developed ready to go into the lawsuit tomorrow and tuesday and wednesday. in philadelphia, the furthest ahead we have about 60 or 70 witnesses. in pennsylvania, and philadelphia and in pittsburgh. in pittsburgh, we have observers

and has rudy giuliani, his go-to when all else fails.s is a contrast that we have between a person of principle like chris krebs, and rudy giuliani, the last of the administration willing to still do the president's dirty work. >> the idea that rudy giuliani is in charge of the president's legal situation on this gives you a sense of how legitimate the charges are, that rudy giuliani is the one who's now in charge, because a lot of lawyers dropped out or their cases have fallen apart because there is no widespread voter fraud in this country. what does it tell you about the next 64-plus days that the president is going to be in office before he has to leave? it seems like maggie haberman was on last week saying that the president views it as kind of like a show and he's watching and he thinks of things in the increment of time and wanted to see how it all turns out, almost as an observer. there is a lot of damage he could do the next 60-something days. >> i think there is a lot of truth to maggie haberman's assessment. he has always view
