Giuliani to Chuck Todd: ‘Everybody’ Has History of Infidelity

We’ve had quite a few pieces about Rudy Giuliani‘s media engagements today here on Mediaite, so we might as well top it off with something about how, apparently, two-timing your spouse is universal.

The New York mayor was confronted by NBC’s Chuck Todd today about his continued determination for him and Donald Trump to attack Hillary Clinton through her marriage to Bill Clinton. Todd asked Giuliani whether Clinton was wrong to stand by her husband through his sexual missteps, and then whether Giuliani’s “the right person” to make these attacks despite being twice-divorced and having a past of adultery.

That discussion led to…this exchange:

Todd: “You have your own infidelity charge.”

Giuliani: “Well, everybody does.”

After suggesting that “everybody” has been unfaithful to their romantic partners, Giuliani said the situation between him and Clinton is different because he has never been alleged of attacking sexual abuse victims.

“I think your bringing up my personal life really is kind of irrelevant to what Hillary Clinton did,” Giuliani retorted. “She’s running for president, I’m not.”

Earlier on Sunday, Giuliani was challenged by CNN’s Jake Tapper about whether the Trump campaign has any ground to attack Clinton for staying with her husband, when Trump and several of his top aides have married multiple times.
