I thought trumps presidential run was going to be identical to Giuliani's but I have to admit is looking up for Trump he is turning some support from the gop's leaders, I still don't think he has a chance on the general but I wouldn't bet the farm against him.

“I’ll give you one person I just had dinner with, the head of the Correction Workers Union in New York, Norman Seabrook,” Giuliani said.
Seabrook is “an African-American, enormously well respected by everyone in the African-American community. He said to me tonight, ‘I’m endorsing Donald Trump, because he can get jobs.'”
“Donald Trump can do what Ronald Reagan did,” Giuliani insisted.
“He can reach over and he can get Reagan Democrats.
”Trump can “also get African-Americans, believe it or not, Latinos, because he’s not tarred by the long connection with the Republican Party that we all have,” Giuliani said.
“Blacks have this feeling about the Republican Party that we’re anti-black, anti-Hispanic. We’re not. But they have that feeling. He doesn’t carry that burden with him. He could reach over and he could be an enormously powerful general election candidate.”
Giuliani explained that Trump will get support from Latinos because Trump can bring them jobs, work, lift the economy, and create growth.
“America’s Mayor” then drew a parallel between Trump and Reagan suggesting,
“Trump can reach out the way Ronald Reagan was able to reach out to the union workers, who were all Democrats but they voted for him because they felt he could increase their wages”
Giuliani is not the point, he is an opportunist, a canary in the mine, you have several senators who are now behind trump, they are certainly cracks in the stop trump movement.
