Ruddy Giuliani and the responsibility of 'turning the tables' for Donald Trump

Perhaps in history, America has never witnessed such a"bad" situation"Light up"full of drama after Election Day as it is now. Although candidate Joe Biden has been confirmed by the media as “President-elect”, no one feels sure enough to affirm that he will be the one to enter the White House on January 20, 2021.

Meanwhile, Donald Trump’s team has been mysteriously quiet, with rare but consistent statements that “the election is not over yet.” The mystery is so great that people are skeptical whether Trump’s legal team, led by Ruddy Giuliani, really holds enough “cards” in the legal battle to bring about an unprecedented outcome in the history of US elections.

The "Hero" returns

The legal “battle” plan was calculated by Donald Trump’s campaign team very early, as soon as there was information that this year’s election would accept mail-in voting due to the Covid-19 pandemic. But it was not until last weekend that the name Ruddy Giuliani appeared as the leader of Trump’s legal team in a fierce “battle of wits and arguments”.

In a tweet, President Donald Trump made clear his expectations for Rudy Giuliani: “I look forward to Mayor Giuliani leading the legal effort to protect the value of our free and fair elections!” Led by Rudy Giuliani are some of the most famous names in the American legal community: Joseph di Genova, Victoria Toensing, Sidney Powell and Jenna Ellis, forming a team that Donald Trump praised as “truly great representatives”.

Rudy Giuliani is an extremely familiar name in President Donald Trump's "orbit", even one of the figures considered to be the closest and most loyal to the President. Even before joining Donald Trump's election advisory team in2016 election, Rudy Giuliani – a prominent politician with a long career in many important positions – has become famous with the image of “9/11 Hero”. That image comes from the way he handled the worst crisis in New York after the terrorist attack that shook the world on September 11, 2001. As Mayor, the trust he brought to New Yorkers during the darkest days of the terrorist attack helped him win the title of Person of the Year in 2001.

“One of the reasons we won is because Rudy was there 24/7.”

In Donald Trump's journey to the presidency in 2016, Rudy Giuliani played an extremely important role, especially helping Donald Trump overcome accusations of sexual assault during the most intense period of the race with his opponent Hillary Clinton. Later, Steve Bannon, Donald Trump's chief strategist during that year's presidential campaign, commented that "One of the reasons we won was because Rudy was there 24/7." When Donald Trump was elected President, there was much speculation that Rudy Giuliani would become the new Secretary of State in the new administration. But everyone was surprised when the United States did not have a Secretary of State named Rudy Giuliani. Instead, Rudy Giuliani was still kept by President Donald Trump's side as his personal lawyer - a special lawyer who did not receive a salary from the White House.

With the relationship between Donald Trump and Rudy Giuliani, everyone vaguely understands that Rudy Giuliani still plays a special role with the President behind the scenes without the title of a Secretary. That has been proven throughout the first 4 years of Donald Trump's term, when Donald Trump was caught up in the most "hot water" situations, people saw Rudy Giuliani appear. That was when Trump had to endure the Democrats' relentless attacks with investigations.relations with Russia, when the US political scene was stirred up by the news that Mr. Trump pressured the President of Ukraine to conduct unfavorable investigations into his opponent Joe Biden... In all of those incidents, Rudy Giuliani appeared as the "last shield", the "hero" protecting the President to safely overcome the waves.

The arrival of Rudy Giuliani to lead Donald Trump’s team in the post-election legal battle is being described as “the hero returns”. Many people believe that the legal path that Trump’s team is taking is too difficult, and the chance of success is very small. Therefore, choosing Rudy Giuliani is considered the last resort to “win again” – in Donald Trump’s words.

Giuliani's mysterious tactics

Rudy Giuliani took on the responsibility of “turning the tables” for President Donald Trump in a situation that many people considered to be no different from “the end game”. That was when Donald Trump’s legal team “fell apart” quite a bit with the withdrawal of the law firm Porter Wright Morris & Arthur, with the statement of several senior employees at another famous law firm, Jones Day, refusing to participate in election litigation.

That's whenlegal effortsDonald Trump's campaign was rejected in a series of key battleground states where Joe Biden won the election: In Michigan, a judge rejected a Republican request to halt certification of the vote count in Wayne County, the most populous county with a majority African American population; in Arizona, the Trump campaign dropped a lawsuit over some valid votes that were not counted due to voting machine errors; in Nevada, a state judge also rejected a complaint about thousands of invalid ballots; and in Pennsylvania, the Supreme Court rejected a complaint by the Trump campaign that observers were allowed too close to the poll workers.

As soon as he appeared, Rudy Giuliani made the media stir again with the announcement that the "results of the presidential election" would be reversed.

Despite this fragile situation, as soon as he appeared, Rudy Giuliani made the media stir with his statement that the “results of the presidential election” would be reversed, that the Republican Party had recorded enough illegal votes in several key battleground states to change the results that were once believed to belong to Mr. Joe Biden. Of course, the statement is one thing, but whether Mr. Rudy Giuliani has evidence for his statements is another. With a background as an experienced lawyer, Rudy Giuliani fully understands that simple principle and continues to make the public “half-believe, half-doubt” when he claims that he has in hand evidence that millions of votes for Mr. Donald Trump have been deleted, but he… cannot share the evidence at this time.

Many people have been sarcastic about Rudi Giuliani’s story, considering it a “spontaneous” and “smokescreen” statement like the person he is serving. However, those who are knowledgeable about the US election and the US legal system are very cautious, saying that Giuliani’s cunning mind cannot be underestimated, because the most important thing that determines victory or defeat is not the media analysis, but who can find a way to apply the complex US legal system in the most beneficial way for their clients.

As the US presidential election has not officially taken place, candidate Joe Biden has always been leading President Donald Trump by a large margin. But despite being at a disadvantage, the Republican Party still maintains a strength that the Democrats can hardly match: unity within the party. That unity has been maintained until now when Republican congressmen have been silent, not making a statement about candidate Joe Biden winning enough electoral votes to become President. That silence seems to create a mysterious curtain obscuring the calculations of Ruddy Giuliani - who is very famous for his behind-the-scenes but effective activities.

During Donald Trump’s extremely difficult time in late 2019, when the Democrats released a “blockbuster” report on Trump’s relationship with Ukraine with the most important “link” being Ruddy Giuliani, Ruddy Giuliani himself calmly said: “When this is over, I will be a hero”. And then it really was over! And who knows, when Trump faces a much bigger challenge, the possibility of losing the election, Ruddy Giuliani will once again prove his “heroic” qualities. Everything is still uncertain…
