3:39Now PlayingA reporter that is present at the Republican Convention this week says that they witnessed Rudy Giuliani barking like a dog at a staffer. And they don't mean that he was "barking" orders at them - he literally went up to one and said "woof woof," followed by a request that they wipe down his disgustingly sweaty bald head. This is an incredibly degrading experience for whatever staffer had the misfortune of wiping down the man formerly known as "America's Mayor." Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

On Wednesday, the Washington Post reported on a very weird thing that Rudy Giuliani did, uh, in the middle, I guess, of being interviewed at the RNC by none other than MyPillow guy Mike Lindell. And the weird thing is that Giuliani barked at a Republican convention staffer. Now, I don't mean like he barked orders at them, like, get me this, get me that. No, no, no. I mean, literally said woof, woof, barked at the person like a dog. And here's the funnier part, right? You may be assuming, but fair and you're not providing the exact content, uh, context under which this happened. Oh, I'll give you the full context. And trust me, the full context actually makes it so much worse, it's one of those weird situations where when you hear the whole story, it's actually even worse than if you had just taken that snippet and told people according to new, uh, Washington Post reporter, excuse me, Ben Terrace. Here's what Ben Terrace wrote during breaks when he was being interviewed by Mike Lindell. A woman wiped sweat off Giuliani's bald head. He then quotes Giuliani telling the woman, quote, sponge bath for the dog, woof wolf.
So you tell me if that context makes it any better. There was a woman whose unfortunate job it was to wipe the sweat off of Giuliani's forehead and he said, sponge bath for the dog. Woof, woof. I don't even know that I need to continue this segment. Like, what? What else can I say? This is the man who used to be referred to. He still calls himself this, but nobody else says America's mayor. Right? America's mayor. Sponge bath for the dog. Woof, woof. Jesus Christ. I mean, look, I get it. Okay. I'm also bald. Have been for a very long time. And also throughout my entire life, I have also struggled with hyperhydrosis. I sweat a lot. Even when I was, you know, actually in shape, I still was a profuse sweater. Okay, so I get it. Yeah, especially, you know, you got cameras on you, you're gonna sweat even more. You got those hot lights. Um, but I've never once actually had a person whose job it was to wipe sweat off me. Nor would I ever even think that that should be a thing. You get a paper towel, trust me, got mine right here. And it's for that very purpose, right? In between segments, you wipe it off and you move on. And if you do have a person who is going to be wiping your sp, don't dehumanize them
By, by going woof, woof. Like this is just all around disturbing, grotesque. And honestly, like when you look at Giuliani's behavior and then compare it to some of the things that he's been accused of in that lawsuit, uh, by his former employee, you put that all together and suddenly you're like, oh, I get it now. That actually makes a lot of sense.
