President Donald Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani told The Guardian that he had “insurance” should the president seek to set him up as a fall guy in House Democrats’ impeachment investigation.
Giuliani’s lawyer quickly interjected that the remark was a joke — but the answer was telling nonetheless.

Giuliani has denied wrongdoing in relation to his activities in Ukraine, arguing that he was simply doing his job as Trump’s defense attorney.
