"Broke" and abandoned: Rudy Giuliani is reportedly now getting the cold shoulder from Trump

Donald Trump is continuing to rake in the cash from supporters while shrugging his shoulders at the people who failed to secure him a second term.

Despite boasting a war chest of more than $100 million, Trump is reportedly refusing to extend any help to his former personal attorney Rudy Giuliani, who is now struggling under a mountain of legal fees that could leave the former New York mayor entirely broke. According to The New York Times, Trump raised a whopping $102 million in the first half of 2021. Salon reported last month that he has been relatively frugal in his spending habits, opting to not direct any of the money toward his election conspiracy efforts, including the GOP-backed recounts in Georgia, Pennsylvania, or Arizona.

On Sunday, Maggie Haberman reported that Trump's fiscal conservatism appears to apply even to his closest allies – and namely, one of his most loyal election objectors: Rudy Giuliani.

"Giuliani allies are looking at the Trump $ - even if it isn't $82 million," Haverman tweeted, adding that the ex-lawyer's friends say "he is close to broke."

I’m assuming it can be used for many/any uses but I am not sure if it is tied by the same strings attached to the donated funds themselves.

I laugh at all of the rightwing fools who thought MF45 would pay them, when he has a decades-long record of cheating everyone.
