When Lexington Avenue lothario Rudy Giuliani declared last month that he would be joining Donald Trump’s august legal team, he said that he would only be taking a “leave of absence” from his law firm, Greenberg Traurig, because it’d take just a week, two weeks tops, to resolve the Mueller investigation. On Thursday, though, the law firm announced that the leave of absence has, sadly, become permanent, with Giuliani tendering a “resignation” letter on Wednesday. “After recognizing that this work is all consuming and is lasting longer than initially anticipated, Rudy has determined it is best for him to resign,” the firm’s chairman, Richard A. Rosenbaum, said in a statement. So that’s the party line. More likely, as others have speculated, “America’s Mayor” was told he had 24 hours to cough up a letter announcing his departure, or the firm would cough it up for him

Yeah, they weren't too happy with his casual confession of committing disbarrable acts.

But I won't put the blame for this one directly on Trump, who has managed to wreck the reputations of just about everyone in his orbit. I'll give Rudy full marks of his own for trashing himself.

It sounds like they allowed him to resign. Anyone else would have been shown the door.

Basically, this is their nice way of saying that Rudy was fired, much in the same manner as when companies comment that the employee they forced out for some reason left to "pursue other opportunities".

Oh, yes, just because he was allowed to submit a letter of resignation doesn't mean that the firm hasn't made it explicitly clear that he was no longer welcome there.

Rudy should have joined the National Guard. The law firm would have had to save his job until service to the country was over.

Embarrassing the country isn't the same as serving the country.

It's amazing how far down Rudy has sunk. When he does those stupid interviews on tv, he looks like a mad man, totally deranged.

Trump has to be pulling out his hair over Rudy and his inability to not put his foot in his mouth every time he opens it. I thought Donald Trump was the most out of control human ever, until I watched Rudy blabbing away.

I bet it won't be too long before they find some convenient excuse for Rudy to suddenly become unavailable and he will quietly go off into the sunset.

I don't think Trump is capable of distinguishing to that degree. As long as he hears himself being talked about on Fox, he's happy and if he's being talked about on MSNBC or CNN, he assumes it's negative although again, I don't think he can actually tell whether it is or not.

Rudy talks about him, and it doesn't matter that he's digging the hole deeper with every word, I have no doubt that Trump is watching him and nodding and smiling.

Why would Rudy need to join a law firm in the first place? He can make plenty of money on his own.
