Rudy Giuliani: Bold faced liar, ignorant or both, yet he and Trump claim "everyone else" is lying
A few weeks back I created a "connecting the dots" thread. In that thread's OP, I noted that Donald Trump signed a letter of intent (LOI) regarding the development of Trump Tower Moscow (TTM), and yesterday I created a thread noting that the WH, thus Trump and the key people around and working for/with him, notably Sarah Sanders, just don't give a damn about the truth.
The information I noted about TTM came from Michael Cohen, who stated that he'd lied about the nature and temporal lifespan of the TTM-project negotiations. In an effort to discredit Cohen, Giuliani, this past Sunday, alleged tacitly that Cohen omitted a material contextual element of the matter: "It was a real estate project. There was a letter of intent to go forward, but no one signed it."
Well, that's an unmitigated lie, and here's the Donald-Trump-signed LOI to pursue the TTM project: Trump Acquisition, LLC LOI with I.C. Expert Investment Company. And it's not a basic letter that simply states a willingness to undertake a project; it's chock full of provisional pricing, operational, and fee structure details. Additionally, it contains a confidentiality clause that squelches everyone who'd have been party to the deal, except Donald Trump.
This is not the first time Rudy has dissembled in support of Trump, but what's particularly astounding about this lie Rudy told is that there's no way Trump forgot about the LOI (unless, of course, Trump's suffering from dementia) and/or didn't know that Cohen/Weisselberg also had a copy, and it's unlikely Trump didn't also have a copy of the LOI...So what gives?

- Is Trump lying to Rudy about the things he bids Rudy to discuss in public?
- Is Trump telling Rudy the truth about his affairs, whereafter Rudy's lies about them anyway?
- If so, what possesses Rudy to do that? Does Trump have "dirt" on him or is Rudy just a bold-faced liar in his own right?
