Rudy Giuliani Is Now Trump, Minus the Hair.
--Frank Rich, New York Magazine, February 25, 2015
“Barack Obama doesn’t love me!” Giuliani cries.
“Rudy, chill. Nobody does,” the whole wide world replies.
But then Hizzoner takes it up a notch: “He doesn’t love
America, which is the country he’s the POTUS of.
“I know he doesn’t love this nation. If he did, he’d say
That Islam’s always evil, and so’s marriage if you’re gay.
“He’d say that workers shouldn’t have the right to unionize.
Protecting the environment is something he’d despise.
“Of birth control and women’s right to choose he would be scornful,
And when black guys get killed by cops, he wouldn’t be so mournful.
“He’d shut up about plans to keep the poor insured and healthy,
And dedicate himself to lower taxes for the wealthy.
“He’d say non-Christians aren’t protected by the Constitution,
And there’s no evidence for climate change or evolution.
“From Fox News he would take his cues about what’s patriotic.
As you can see, I’m not irrelevant or idiotic.”
