An attorney for two Georgia election workers who sued Rudy Giuliani for defamation did not rule out going after former President Donald Trump for similar false 2020 election claims.
Mike Gottlieb told MSNBC's Inside with Jen Psaki on Sunday that while he can’t speak about a possible case against Trump in an on-air interview, “If people continue to defame our clients, I don't care who they are – but if people continue to go out on TV and repeat these lies that we have demonstrated to be false, then they can expect to hear from us.”

Gottlieb is fresh off a landmark victory this week where Giuliani was found liable for defamation by a federal judge in a lawsuit brought by Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, election workers Giuliani claimed manipulated results in 2020. Freeman and Moss, who are mother and daughter, respectively, worked as election workers in Fulton County, Georgia, during the presidential race.
The former New York City mayor failed to provide information sought in subpoenas, with Judge Beryl Howell in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia ruling a civil trial can move forward to determine the damages awarded to the plaintiffs.
