Rudy Giuliani Jokes That He Has 'Very Good Insurance' in the Event That Donald Trump Throws Him Under the Bus

Rudy Giuliani Jokes That He Has 'Very Good Insurance' in the Event That Donald Trump Throws Him Under the Bus

Hmmm....

President Donald Trump's personal lawyer, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, has made gaffe after gaffe after gaffe after gaffe in defending his client.

With each new stumble in defending Donald Trump, some speculate that Giuliani's firing is imminent. Even Trump once answered that he didn't know if Giuliani was still representing him.


So when The Guardian asked Giuliani if he feared Trump would throw him under the bus, Giuliani joked that, even if Trump did, he wouldn't be scared. Why? Because he has good insurance.

He said:

"I'm not [nervous about being thrown under the bus by Trump], but I do have very, very good insurance, so if he does, all my hospital bills will be paid."

Giuliani was apparently joking that he had good health insurance and could recover from being thrown under a literal bus.

Twitter, however, was divided as to whether or not "health insurance" was a metaphor for "compromising material," in the same way that the "bus" is a metaphor for blame or condemnation.

CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale assured that Giuliani was joking.

Others weren't so sure.

Especially after Giuliani's lawyer, Robert Costello, stepped in to clarify that Giuliani was joking.

But when it comes like staunch Republicans like Giuliani, it says a lot that they can joke about how great their health insurance is.

Really landed that one, Rudy.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
