NEW YORK ¨C President Donald Trump¡¯s personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, called the president this week to reassure him that he had been joking when he told media outlets he had ¡°insurance¡± if Trump turned on him in the Ukraine scandal, Giuliani¡¯s lawyer said on Wednesday.
The attorney, Robert Costello, said Giuliani ¡°at my insistence¡± had called Trump ¡°within the last day¡± to emphasize that he had not been serious when he said he had an ¡°insurance policy, if thrown under the bus.¡±
¡°He shouldn¡¯t joke, he is not a funny guy. I told him, ¡®Ten thousand comedians are out of work, and you make a joke. It doesn¡¯t work that way,¡¯ ¡± Costello told Reuters.
