Giuliani also declined to discuss whether Deputy Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein, who has been under fire from conservatives and oversees the Russia probe, could be fired by the president in the coming weeks.
“I’m not involved in anything about those issues. My advice on Mueller has been this: He should be allowed to do his job, he’s entitled to do his job.”
The Daily Beast reported earlier Thursday that Giuliani was in talks with Trump about joining the legal team.
Giuliani said he would spend a “great deal of time” in Washington working with Trump, but would continue to live in New York.
Trump considered Giuliani to be attorney general and has said in recent weeks he needs a New York-based attorney. Many leading white-collar lawyers, such Theodore Olson, have declined Trump’s entreaties.
Trump is known to be a difficult client who does not listen to his lawyers’ advice, according to lawyers who are familiar with his conduct.

This is very interesting timing. Guiliani all but disappeared soon after inauguration. I think I remember he was threatened vigorously as someone near him was attacked. Just going from memory. Interesting the fact he knows the ins and outs of New York, the Clintons, 9/11 and has seemed to focus on cyber security during his time away (commercials on Fox). Things are moving quickly.
