Giuliani Recites ‘My Cousin Vinny’ During Press Conference on Alleged Election Fraud

During a press conference this week, Rudy Giuliani assembled President Donald Trump’s legal team in an effort to show that the president actually carried the election.

At one moment in the event, Giuliani quoted lines from the 1992 film “My Cousin Vinny” starring Marisa Tomei and Joe Pesci to demonstrate his point that the poll watchers were too far away from the ballots.

Giuliani was arguing that the poll watchers were too far away from the ballots — an argument which was among the Trump campaign’s first in their effort to contest the election. In Philadelphia, the Trump lawyers secured an early win with the argument when a judge ruled that poll watchers must be allowed six feet of the ballot counting.

In an effort to add anecdotal support to his argument, the former New York City mayor asked the gathered reporters, “Did you all watch ‘My Cousin Vinny’? You know the movie?”

After a few confused mumbles from the press, Giuliani set the scene, saying, “It’s one of my favorite law movies. ‘Cause he comes from Brooklyn. And when the nice lady who said she saw and then he says to her, ‘How many fingers do I got up?’ And she says, ‘Three’ — well she was too far away to see that it was only two.”

Giuliani followed his cinema anecdote by saying that the poll watchers “were further away than My Cousin Vinny was from the witness. They couldn’t see a thing.”
