Twitter Erupts Over Guiliani’s Bonkers CNN Hit: ‘A Level of Pants-Sh*tting Panic Rarely Seen’ On TV

Rudy Guiliani‘s absolute all-time trainwreck of an interview with CNN’s Chris Cuomo set social media aflame Thursday night.

“[A] level of pants-sh*tting panic rarely seen on national television,” said Tom Nichols — the ex-Republican commentator and author.

“Who failed to tell Rudy Giuliani that he doesn’t have to go on television?” MSNBC’s David Gura added.

There were plenty of other takes on the wild 30-minute conversation. Here’s a sampling:

Important tip: If someone asks you if you want Rudy Giuliani to go on CNN to defend you, always say no.

This Chris Cuomo interview with Rudy Giuliani is completely off the rails. Lots of yelling about who is the sellout of the two.
