Talk about going back to your roots...

Rudy grew up in a crime family. He must feel right at home now.

I'm 2 years younger than Rudy and a lawyer. I can't imagine going into my final years on this earth being such an asshole both personally and professionally, but if you look at his history, he's a lot like Trump. I'd like to know where he got the $6.8 million dollars to pay off his second wife.

She never missed an opportunity to point out what a fraud he was, a bully. She would liberally (excuse the pun) remind of how he'd have squeegee guys arrested and thrown into Riker's Island (a city prison). And her favorite descriptions of Rudy were "vile" and "despicable". She was THE ONLY ONE who wasn't afraid of him.
