Rudy Giuliani can't stop butt-dialing reporters

The personal lawyer for the president of the United States absolutely can't stop butt-dialing reporters and has apparently done so no fewer than five times.

NBC News' Rich Schapiro reported Friday that Rudy Giuliani inadvertently called him and left a voicemail not once but twice recently, in one instance being heard talking to an unidentified person about how "the problem is we need some money," specifically "a few hundred thousand." On another occasion, the reporter says Giuliani accidentally called him and in a voicemail could be heard tearing into former Vice President Joe Biden and his son for three full minutes.
