from the Hollywood Reporter review:
(Editing is a major distraction in the film's ballyhooed scene with Rudy Giuliani. The shaping of the sequence and its music, in service to the film's overall plot, suggest the disgraced former mayor is trying to seduce a young woman who interviews him. But it looks like some microphone-fitting footage is being repurposed here, and if you really want to make the man look like an ass, you could just play his interview straight

that's not at all what Vanity Fair said. wouldn't put it past Borat but the description I read in VF very much didn't sound like "lol clever editing made him look like a lecher"

I saw some post from someone that has seen the scene, saying the still is misleading. Supposedly she had just helped him remove his microphone, and he is merely tucking his shirt back in. To which I say, so what? Nothing else in the situation makes him seem any less gross.

He’s a monster. But manipulating footage like this only adds to Trumpland’s claim that the “fake news” is always setting them up.

Cohen isn't even *real* fake news. It's not like Trump falling for the Bumblebee Star or whatever the other day. Setting people up is literally what Cohen does and ... mission accomplished.

you're taking one sentence from Hollywood Reporter at face value when so far they're the only one to suggest it was clever editing?
none of us have seen the actual scene, just the stills.

"The Stills" is what Rudy's friends call it when they think he is dead and have to poke him with a stick, like a possum.

U.S. intelligence agencies warned the White House last year that President Trump’s personal lawyer Rudolph W. Giuliani was the target of an influence operation by Russian Khazakhistanian intelligence, according to four former officials familiar with the matter.

(1) The Borat video is a complete fabrication. I was tucking in my shirt after taking off the recording equipment.At no time before, during, or after the interview was I ever inappropriate.

On Oct. 14, Delaware computer repairman John Paul Mac Isaac claimed that in April 2019, a man who identified himself as Hunter Biden brought a liquid-damaged MacBook Pro to his small repair shop.
This is the first time I've paid any attention to this (stupidest) timeline. They're saying John Paul Mac Isaac, OBE, had the laptop since April of 2019 and it's just coming out now?
Also, did this guy change his legal name to "Mac" or was this a case of of John Smith becoming a blacksmith?

McIsaac/MacIsaac is not an uncommon a name, I'm assuming either he can't spell his own name or the media can't.

Probably the former.

I never came across any MacIsaacs in Scotland but I've met a few in Canada.

Ok, duh. Probably an Americanization. If I saw McIsaac/MacIsaac I wouldn't have batted an eye.

wasn't there a thing about the New World being a dumping ground for Sepahardic jews while columbus and the Spanish king tried to bring around their milllenial agenda to bring around the kingdom of heaven.So does a MacIsaac fit into that conspiracy or are they 200 years late? Scotland being declared free of jews to bring around its Ku Klux Klan roots scenario?Or did i just invent a racist conspiracy

I don't believe the McIsaacs are some long lost clan of Judeo-Gaels, no. More likely just some Highlanders driven off their lands and forced to go to Canada (you decide what's worse).
