Rudy Giuliani wants to set the record straight.

No, not about his client, President Trump, or the 2016 meeting Trump's son held inside Trump Tower with Russians. It's also not about a potential interview between Trump and Special Counsel Robert Mueller, or what Giuliani meant when he simply tweeted "You" on July 29. This is about something much deeper.

"There is a moron on Fox claiming I chain smoke cigarettes worrying about the President's tweets," Giuliani tweeted Monday evening. "Don't smoke cigarettes. Hate 'me. Smoke only premium cigars and I hope this idiot is not a lawyer because if he is he should sue his Law School."
