Giuliani Says GOP Would Benefit If Talks Drag On

Rudy Giuliani said that he wants negotiations over a presidential interview with special counsel Robert Mueller to be completed by Sept. 1 but also said that Republicans could benefit from dragging the process into the November midterm elections, CNN reports.

Said Giuliani: “When I first got involved, I would have told you not testifying would be the right legal strategy but then hurt politically. Now I’m thinking the continuance of the investigation would actually help because people are getting tired of it, and (the President) needs something to energize his voters because the Democrats look like they’re energized.”
