| 0:00.0 | was Jeff Sessions. In the very beginning, when nobody would support Trump, Sessions did. |
| 0:06.3 | It was a big breakthrough. Trump gets elected a year and a half later. And there are a lot of |
| 0:13.2 | candidates for Attorney General. Obvious choice, Rudy Giuliani. He had been the Deputy Attorney |
| 0:18.4 | General for years, former U.S. attorney. |
| 0:22.4 | Rudy was offered the job, turned it down, didn't want it. |
