Speaking with Fox host Martha MacCallum, Giuliani quickly tried to cast doubts on the damning text messages that Volker, the former US emissary to Ukraine, provided to the House just the day before.

“Let me ask the question, the State Department and all these diplomats who have a lot of experience in Ukraine and spent many years there, who feel very differently about this situation than you do. They don’t see under the rocks what you don’t see under the rocks,” she noted.

“Maybe Donald Trump is going to fix it all, because he’s a disruptive president who knows how to break up the swamp,” Giuliani countered. “Donald Trump is going to fix it. The reason he’s President of United States and they are just walking around with their suits on and haven’t done a damn thing about corruption, in the Ukraine, contribute to it. Do you know what they say in the Ukraine when we talk about corruption? They say ‘Bull!’ You had Joe Biden pulling down millions. Don’t you think an American president has to crack that open and do you think he’s crack it open with the very diplomats who couldn’t find it in the first place?”

“A lot of people look at this situation and say ‘What exactly you are doing in this situation?’ We have a State Department, we have ambassadorial level that’s involved in all of this. Why are you, the president’s personal attorney, what is your personal — what’s your mission?

“To disrupt the world,” Giuliani gravely intoned. “My mission is to defend my client in the best traditions of the legal profession.”
