A new book says Donald Trump has “cast out” and “cut off” his former lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, for daring to ask that the former president pay him.
“Trump is annoyed that he tried to get paid for his election challenge work,” Michael Wolff writes in the book, Landslide: The Final Days of the Trump Presidency, according to an excerpt published in The Times.
After Mr Trump lost the 2020 presidential election, Mr Giuliani tried to overturn the results in dozens of failed lawsuits. But according to Landslide, all the former mayor has received for his efforts is “the cold shoulder” from Mr Trump and his family.
That’s a far cry from what Mr Giuliani’s team had charged. In January, the lawyer admitted to The New York Times that his associate had asked Mr Trump to pay him $20,000 a day – about 10 times the normal rate. Mr Giuliani has insisted the bill was sent without his knowledge.
Whatever the case, the former president didn’t pay it. In the final week of his presidency, isolated and twice-impeached, Mr Trump ordered aides not to pay Mr Giuliani’s fees. According to The Washington Post, the outgoing president was furious at his allies for not doing enough to keep him in the White House – even at Mr Giuliani, who had done more than most.
