I can honestly say that the guy is a nasty piece of work.... lothsome individual.

I still remember election night in 2016, when Trump beat Clinton, and he came out to give his victory speech.

I always suspected -- as most people did -- that Trump never intended or expected to win. It was all just a publicity stunt that snowballed.

So part of me thought that it might not be so bad. He probably has no interest in actually governing. So maybe he'll just surround himself with bright, experienced people to advise him ... and he could just do all the fun preening for the camera.

And just as I'm thinking this, he makes a comment about the wonderful people who would be advising him. He turns to his right and standing there is ... Rudy f***ing Giuliani. And then I just thought: it's gonna be a loooooong four years
