And he just said to me he said, i don t care about my legacy. - rudy has that fatalism about him. he thinks that it doesn t matter, and that whether it s one year from now where he s remembered, but 10,000 years from now he won t be, what difference does it make in the scheme of the universe? i had my day in the sun and i had my place in the arena. - what i did for new york, donald trump will do for america! [cheers and applause] [dramatic music] - ladies and gentlemen, america s mayor, rudy giuliani. - today, i am officially announcing my withdrawal as a candidate for president of the united states. - very difficult night for rudy giuliani. - we are going to make our country great again.
[dramatic music] - at the height of the 16 election, i said, look, the election s going to be over, and i wish you would consider your legacy, because you have an important story to tell. - calmly and safely evacuate lower manhattan. if you are south of canal street, walk north and get out of southern manhattan. - one of the things that rudy, on 9/11, helped us realize as a society is that you don t have to be perfect to be a hero. but if you stand up and you do the right thing when it s difficult, that s all that matters, at the end of the day. i mean, so much of what we do should be motivated by caring about our legacy. and he just said to me he said, i don t care about my legacy. - rudy has that fatalism about him. he thinks that it doesn t matter, and that whether it s one year from now where he s remembered, but 10,000 years from now he won t be, what difference does it make in the scheme of the universe?
