   American comeback narratives are — customarily — uplifting stories that root for the underdog. Rooting for Giuliani’s comeback would be like cheering for the reanimation of the undead. He embodies an entire movie genre — the zombie comedy. The zomedy. If his comeback was a film, the tagline would be “Rudy Ghouliani — starring in a comeback zomedy of his own making.” Previous ghoulish roles have included: proud lobbyist for the oil industry; unflinching lead counsel for Purdue Pharma which — says the Justice Department — misled the public about OxyContin’s addictive properties; adviser to the president on what Giuliani dubbed his “Muslim Ban”.
