Former New York mayor-turned-Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani slammed Fox News host Bret Baier and other reporters, claiming that they are the “most incompetent in the history of the country” because they have refused to agree with the Big Lie that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from Trump and dismissed the Arizona audit as a sad political stunt.
Giuliani’s attack on his favorite news outlet came during an interview on Real America”s Voice, host Steve Bannon, who called Giuliani a “gentleman” because he has not forcefully responded to author Michael Wolff, who claimed that the Trump attorney was often drunk.
After saying that “every anonymous person leaking that stuff are the gutless cowards that stabbed Trump in the back,” Bannon then asked about Baier’s reporting on the so-called audit of ballots in Arizona.
“Bret Baier and Fox and the news show at six o’clock, when they saw the Arizona hearing last week, they said nothing to see here, it’s a couple of hundred votes, this is a waste of time, essentially Rudy Giuliani is way off the reservation,” Bannon said.
Giuliani answered by attacking Baier and Fox News.
“I say the level of reporting was the most incompetent ever in the history of the country or in some cases totally corrupt,” Giuliani said. “I mean, much of the media was in a conspiracy to make sure Trump didn’t win. Basically, we’ve got to do anything and everything to defeat Trump.”
“And when they couldn’t defeat him on election day, they went ahead and they made up ballots,” he remarked. “That’s what those 78,000 pieces of paper that are phony are all about and that’s why the [Arizona election official] wanted the Sharpie pens.”
“To miss this, you have to be either stupid or part of it,” Giuliani concluded.
