Among the materials turned over to special counsel Jack Smith about supposed fraud in the 2020 election are documents that touch on many of the debunked conspiracies and unfounded claims of widespread voter fraud peddled by former Donald Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani.

Gulliani has absolutely flipped on Trump, Trump is utterly fucked and zero lubricant is going to be used.

…(unless by some slim chance fascist dictatorships suddenly come into fashion and he wins the presidency against all odds, and then he can manage to pardon himself and everything will be fine).. this really does seem to be his plan right now, it’s increasingly excellent to watch his desperation increase.

what a fun few months/years going forward we are going to have.

I wish it were "against all odds" but by my observations, the probabilities are a lot higher than I would like.

Yep. The next election is basically a coin flip. It will be decided by a few thousand people in a small number of swing states, thanks to our idiotic system.

Prediction:
Giuliani flips on Trump, Trump goes down, Giuliani paints himself as a hero and speedruns for election.
