“The defense now to Cohen saying under oath he NEVER asked for a pardon is a familiar one,' Giuliani tweeted. 'What’s The Meaning of Never.'
President Donald Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani, who infamously defended his client by declaring on national TV that “truth isn’t truth,” on Thursday asked if House Democrats “care about the truth” while arguing that Trump’s former legal fixer Michael Cohen should be prosecuted for perjury.
Cohen’s lawyer Lanny Davis on Thursday confirmed that Cohen directed his former attorney to ask Trump for a pardon. But Davis said that does not conflict with Cohen’s testimony under oath that “I have never asked for, nor would I accept, a pardon from President Trump," because Cohen was no longer interested in a pardon once he withdrew from a joint defense agreement with Trump’s legal team.“Dems star Cohen testified: ‘I have NEVER asked for...a pardon from Mr. Trump.
“For any ethical prosecutor, or Congressional investigators one perjury would be enough to cease any cooperation,” Giuliani tweeted.“The defense now to Cohen saying under oath he NEVER asked for a pardon is a familiar one; What’s The Meaning of Never,” Giuliani tweeted. “Serial liars often try the same deception too often. Let’s hope Congress and DOJ are outraged at Cohen’s disrespecting them by perjuring himself repeatedly.
Giuliani efforts to represent Trump have repeatedly come under fire due to the former New York City mayor's inconsistencies and contradictions. He uttered one of his most outrageous statements, “truth isn’t truth,” in Aug. 2018 while arguing that Russia probe special counsel Robert Mueller could be attempting to get Trump to commit perjury.
