Rudy Giuliani

“It’s not an accident that it happens that I turn in all this evidence on their prince and darling Joe Biden who’s one of the biggest crook in the last thirty years, and since I have the courage to say that I’m the target," he told WABC radio.
“I’m a devil in Hollywood. Nothing about me comes out in that period of time, nothing sensational about me in the movie.
"Now all of a sudden there’s all this sensational stuff about me in the movie. Don’t know if it was added, doctored, manipulated, whatever," he said, adding that he prayed with Balakova and was fully clothed at all times.
Likewise, the Editorial Director of Motherjones Ben Dreyfuss said he saw the clip – but Giuliani didn't have his hands down his pants and was merely adjusting his shirt.
"I have now seen the scene with Rudy Giuliani and though it is creepy for other reasons it is being described on twitter in a false way," Dreyfuss said.
"He does not have his hand down his pants in a sexual way. He is tucking his shirt back in after she untucks it removing his mic."
"The scene is confusingly edited for comedic purposes which makes sense since this is a comedy film and not a 60 Minutes expose," he added.
"It would be good to keep that in mind in light of the flattening of media where everything can seem like everything else."

“It was a pink bikini, with lace, underneath a translucent mesh top, it looked absurd. He had the beard, bare legs, and wasn’t what I would call distractingly attractive.
“This person comes in yelling and screaming, and I thought this must be a scam or a shakedown, so I reported it to the police. He then ran away."
“I only later realised it must have been Sacha Baron Cohen. I thought about all the people he previously fooled and I felt good about myself because he didn’t get me.”
At the time, NYC cops found no crime was committed.
