    I had a good laugh over the bit I saw on the local news where Giuliani was ranting about how nobody could believe Cohen because he's a big liar.... One thing I know for sure: Trump is the biggest liar of them all. I really wonder if Giuliani and his ilk really believe what they're saying? Like, does Giuliani seriously not realize through delusion that Trump lies constantly to the entire world? Or does he just not care at all that comments like the one he made on this comes across as so completely ridiculous and hypocritical? I don't know if I'll ever be able to fully comprehend where these people's heads are truly at.
    Giuliani actually also said in May that Cohen was a stand up guy. He knows he's spouting bullshit. it's their entire purpose. 
    I know it's very purposeful for some... but you don't think any of them are just deluded a lot of the time, just like so many of their supporters are?
    I think they are so focused on the end game that it either doesn't register, it doesn't matter, or possibly they really do believe it. I personally think Guiliani lost this mind a long time ago. The shit this guy has said in PUBLIC would embarass me saying it to a mirror.

    Yes, he seems really off his rocker now.

    Some lies from Fox News straight to @unsung

    Fox News Item Draws an Angry Reaction From the Danish Government

    Danish Finance Minister Kristian Jensen responded to the Fox report via Twitter, and invited Regan to come to Denmark to learn more about the country.

    “So Danes don’t want to work? 11 places better than U.S. in OECD statistics! We are working much more than Americans and at the same time ranking as the world’s best in work-life balance. You should come to Denmark if you dare to be confronted with the facts,” Jensen said. The minister then finished his tweet with a smiley face.

    According to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, the U.S. is No. 20 in a ranking of national employment rates, while Denmark ranks eighth. When it comes to income equality, Denmark has the sixth-best distribution, while the U.S. is ranked seventh from the bottom, just above Turkey. In work-life-balance, Denmark ranks second-highest in the OECD (just after the Netherlands), while the U.S. ranks ninth from the bottom.

    Just a Quick note on Denmark from a first person perspective not a politician in Denmark.  When I worked for an enzyme company based in Denmark they had no problem taking their 6 week summer holidays/semi weekly bank holidays while only giving new hires in America 2 weeks vacation.  So basically they were a contributor to the negative statistics regarding work life balance, etc because if you were not Danish they treated you like shit.   They also only allowed Danes to get promoted to a certain level so there was a nepotism there that was disgusting.  That is a fact.  Also, when their residents would ex pat to US the first thing they would do is buy a Suburban ( because tax on a vehicle in Denmark is 100%.   That is right....100% so they could not afford a vehicle there) and a big house with a yard and beg not to go back to Denmark because of the quality of life being so nice in the RDU area compared to Copenhagen.

    Many if the larger population areas were never in support of that.  And no - the climate is about the best I’ve experienced. Now - I’ve visited but never lived in souther Cali. 

    NC certainly has some work to do, as does everyone else. But it is beautiful and the people are generally very nice. Some pockets of amazing too like the coast and Asheville.

    NC is a nice area to live.  Yes the humidity is oppressive but there are great places to eat, beaches and mountains all in one state.  

    I prefer the AZ low humidity heat myself.
