President Trump’s personal attorney Rudy Giuliani denounced former national security adviser John Bolton as a “backstabber” in an interview set to broadcast Wednesday.

Giuliani tore into Bolton in the interview with “CBS This Morning” in the wake of reports that Bolton was critical of him and raised concerns about his activities in Ukraine to other administration officials.

“He never said to me, ‘I’ve got a problem with what you are doing in Ukraine,'” Giuliani said. “Never once, never winked, never sent me a little note. He is a personal friend, I thought. So here’s the only conclusion I can come to, and it’s a harsh one, and I feel very bad about it: He’s a backstabber.”

“If your friend was complaining about you behind your back and didn’t have the guts to come up to your face and tell you, ‘I think you’re screwing up’ … that’d be a backstabber,” he continued. “That’s classic backstabber. So I feel I got a swamp character here.”
