“Everything they put out about Hillary Clinton was true,” the president's personal lawyer said. “In other words, they didn’t make things up.
President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Guiliani defended his client’s use of information hacked by a foreign adversary to disparage his 2016 political rival, Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, saying: “it was all true.”
During the segment, Todd also confronted Guiliani about Donald Trump Jr.’s lack of transparency about being offered “dirt” on Clinton directly by the Russians. Guiliani responded by asking: “I wonder if there isn’t an argument that the people had a right to know that information about Hillary Clinton?”
“In other words, if the Russians had stolen the information, and it showed Hillary Clinton to be just a wonderful person and everybody was fine, they were all honest, they were all terrific, it would have helped her,” he argued. “If it hurt at all, it hurt her because the American people got information that was gotten in the wrong way, but it all was true.”
