Rudy Giuliani Regularly Got Drunk Before Fox News Appearances: Report
Rudy Giuliani allegedly had a drinking problem and would regularly get drunk before appearing on Fox News to tout Donald Trump, RadarOnline.com has learned.
In a surprising development to come as the former New York City mayor remains embroiled in several criminal and civil lawsuits, sources revealed that Giuliani would “drink to excess” before appearing on the conservative news network.
According to New York Times correspondents Matt Flegenheimer and Maggie Haberman, the man once dubbed America’s Mayor would regularly drink at the Havana Club before giving interviews on Fox News.
The Havana Club is an exclusive, members-only cigar hotspot in Manhattan, and multiple members corroborated Flegenheimer and Haberman’s new report.
“On some nights when Mr. Giuliani was overserved, an associate discreetly signaled the rest of the club, tipping back his empty hand in a drinking motion, out of the former mayor’s line of sight, in case others preferred to keep their distance,” the Times report revealed.
“Some allies, watching Mr. Giuliani down Scotch before leaving for Fox News interviews, would slip away to find a television, clenching through his rickety defenses of Mr. Trump,” Flegenheimer and Haberman added.
Certain witnesses reportedly testified that they saw the former New York City mayor drinking excessively on the night of the election — while others said they could smell alcohol on Giuliani’s breath.
Meanwhile, witnesses also reportedly told Smith’s team that Trump was aware of Giuliani’s suspected drinking problem and viewed the matter negatively.
