Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani Thursday flatly denied leaking a list of nearly 50 questions special counsel Robert Mueller reportedly wants to ask President Donald Trump, saying that he never saw the questions before their publication.
"I didn't have them," he told Fox Business' "Mornings with Maria" host Maria Bartiromo. "I didn't see those questions. The New York Times saw them before me."
He also said other new members of Trump's legal team, like himself, had not seen the questions, so he does not know how they were leaked.
"I don't know where they were leaked from," said Giuliani. "I'm not going to point fingers at anybody. Somebody might have leaked it to help him."
He said he does "tend to think" that someone from Mueller's team, "not Bob, but someone below" was the one responsible for leaking the questions.
"They think the questions are reasonable," he said. "They don't know how bad they look with those questions."
Giuliani said he believes Mueller's team just wants Trump to start talking in order to catch him in a "perjury trap."
"I always thought it was unethical to try to trap, to question somebody for the purpose of trapping them into perjury," said Giuliani. "As a prosecutor I never wanted just a perjury case."
Giuliani, who dropped a bomb Wednesday night with the revelation that Trump has reimbursed attorney Michael Cohen for his $130,000 payment as part of a nondisclosure agreement with adult film actress Stormy Daniels, told Bartiromo he is not directly working on that case as part of Trump's legal team.
"I was able to pick up information, that exonerates both the president and about Michael Cohen," he said, adding he believes there should be an apology for a federal raid on Cohen's offices and home.
"Half the premise of that raid was false," Giuliani said.
However, he accused Daniels and her attorney, Michael Avenatti, of chasing "money, money, money, money" now that Trump is president.
"It is about money," he said. "It is about her being on television. She is on television, contradicting herself constantly. The other guy probably wants MSNBC to make him their legal commentator and throw out whoever they have."
Meanwhile, Giuliani said he is working on the Mueller probe, and insisted Trump, as president, can't face a subpoena.
"He has all the powers under Article 2," said Giuliani. "America is one of many countries that the head of state is not to be prosecuted, until after they leave office. "
The Trump team, though, is cooperating, turning over 1.2 million documents, said the former mayor.
"They think the truth here is designed by Jim Comey," he said of Mueller's team. "Jim Comey is biggest liar of 2016-2017."
