Rudy Giuliani, former attorney to former President Donald Trump, has been labeled “America’s Deadbeat” by “Morning Joe” hosts Willie Geist and Joe Scarborough after failing to comply with a federal judge's order to turn over evidence and pay legal fees to election workers he defamed. It remains to be seen what the consequences will be for Giuliani if he continues to ignore the court order, but Scarborough speculated that he could face prison, bankruptcy, or additional charges.
