Anderson Cooper pulled no punches as he ridiculed a report that Rudy Giuliani is eager for a prominent role in President Donald Trump’s 2020 reelection campaign team.

The host of CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360°” on Tuesday said he didn’t doubt the availability of the former New York mayor, whom he described as a “legal whoopee cushion.”

“The market for his services, screaming and saying stuff that isn’t true, it’s kinda limited, and frankly the president has most of that stuff covered anyway,” Cooper said of Giuliani, who is now Trump’s personal attorney.

Cooper later suggested Giuliani could end up being “an in-demand surrogate, doing phone-in interviews from inside a cigar humidor or making dubious claims at high-profile events,” impersonated the lawyer, and then summed up what could be his “most valuable quality” to the president.
