Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani spoke Sunday on New York AM 970’s “The Cats Roundtable” on presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump.

“He’s a real hope for us that our politics can really change,” Giuliani told host John Catsimatidis about Trump. “He’s a deal maker. I know that somehow people think that means compromising your principles. I think that means accomplishing your principles.”

“I think all the skills that you learn in business can easily be applied to government.” Giuliani added. “I believe he’s the better hope for America.”
