Where's Rudy these days? He's been remarkably quiet.
Vacationing at the Kremlin?
The public story is that Rudy Giuliani withdrew his name from consideration for Sec of State and isn't interested in a different cabinet position, Duchess. The Trump teams says he was fully vetted and passed with flying colors.
My opinion only -- there was no way in hell the Senate was gonna confirm Giuliani for Sec of State or another key cabinet post and the Trump team knows it.
So, Giuliani agreed to help them all save face. He says he'll still assist his great long-time friend informally, and Trump has praised Giuliani glowingly in return.
It's being reported that the CEO of Exxon, Tillerman, is now the front-runner, despite (or because of?) his close business ties and relationship with Russia.
