Rudy Giuliani called the cops on July 7th in New York in a story that made headlines for a day but was quickly forgotten.
Now we know the whole story. It was a setup. A smear job. Sacha Baron Cohen, Borat, has a new movie out and he tried to set up Rudy to smear him or worse.
“This guy comes running in, wearing a crazy, what I would say was a pink transgender outfit,” Giuliani said at the time.
“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,” Giuliani said.
“I only later realized 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.”
From The Guardian:
In the film, released on Friday, the former New York mayor and current personal attorney to Donald Trump is seen reaching into his trousers and apparently touching his genitals while reclining on a bed in the presence of the actor playing Borat’s daughter, who is posing as a TV journalist.
Following an obsequious interview for a fake conservative news programme, the pair retreat at her suggestion for a drink to the bedroom of a hotel suite, which is rigged with concealed cameras.
After she removes his microphone, Giuliani, 76, can be seen lying back on the bed, fiddling with his untucked shirt and reaching into his trousers.
They are then interrupted by Borat who runs in and says: “She’s 15. She’s too old for you….
… In the film Borat is dispatched by the Kazakh government back to the US to present a bribe to an ally of Donald Trump in order to ingratiate his country with the administration.
After the monkey earmarked for the gift is indisposed, Borat’s supposedly underage offspring becomes the replacement present.
