CNN's Preet Bharara rips 'inconsiderate, incompetent' Giuliani: 'I wouldn't retain that lawyer much longer'

Former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Preet Bharara, joined President Trump in criticizing Rudy Giuliani’s latest performance.


In an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer, Bharara called Giuliani "incompetent."

"In this case, the president has the right to be irritated," Bharara said. "I think Rudy Giuliani's inconsiderate, incompetent statements about not knowing the facts, focusing only on the law, being halfway familiar with some of the facts in the case, not being able to answer basic questions-- I wouldn't retain that lawyer very much longer."

Bharara went on to say that if President Trump decided to fire Giuliani that it wouldn't be shocking.

"I've said many times before, on Monday Trump loves you, on Friday he fires you."

Blitzer then briefly hinted that Bharara might replace former New York Attorney General, Eric Schneiderman, who recently resigned after claims of sexual abuse surfaced.
