MSNBC host Joe Scarborough attacked former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani in a Washington Post op-ed published Thursday, accusing Giuliani of becoming a “henchman” for President Trump by joining the president’s legal team.
In the piece, the “Morning Joe” host praises the former Republican mayor’s efforts to clean up New York City during his time in office there, before lamenting Giuliani’s current status as Trump’s newest lawyer on his defense team as he battles Robert Mueller‘s special counsel investigation.
