It has been a tough weekend for Trump. On Saturday night, the New York Timesreported he claimed a $916 million loss on his taxes in 1995, which might have allowed him to not pay taxes for the next 18 years. He also faced reports that he appeared briefly in the 2000 Playboy soft core porn Centerfolds, in which he sprays champagne on a car.
This all came after he went on a Twitter rant on Friday night where he insinuated, without any evidence whatsoever, that former Miss Universe Alicia Machado might have appeared in a porn film and that Hillary Clinton might have helped her become a U.S. citizen.
Despite all this, Giuliani remains a staunch Trump supporter, and said the candidate shouldn't be ashamed if he didn't pay taxes for 18 years.
"No. The law is responsible for it," Giuliani said. "If you have a set of laws, you live by those laws. And the reality is, you are ignoring completely the fiduciary obligation he has to all the people around him to run his business at the lowest possible expense."
