Sartoris22:

In OOTP, during the scene in Sirius's kitchen when Harry is getting an update from the Order, Luipn says this to Harry: ",,,during the  early days of his Ministry he [Fudge] was forever asking Dumbledore for help and advice. But it seems he's become fond of power now , and much more confident" (94).

The quotation goes on to say that Fudge now believes he's smarter than Dumbledore and thinks Dumbledore is just trying to make trouble in his
warnings about Voldemort. Apparently, Dumbledore did give Fudge advice but Fudge stopped asking for it.
