I mean, if I had fucked up as badly as Giuliani, going from "America's Mayor" to Four Seasons Landscaping, I might drink also

Giuliani’s Drinking Has Trump Prosecutors’ Attention in Federal Election Case

The former mayor’s drinking has become an investigative subplot in Donald Trump’s federal case over 2020 election interference. But long before that, friends had grown deeply concerned.

@scalzi He could have spent the rest of his life as a senior partner at a white shoe law firm, being paid $500K or more a year to take prospective clients to lunch. But he chose the path of madness.

@scalzi another story that makes me feel for the human situation of these people, even though I believe we can never compromise with their politics. The best thing for any of them would be to get as far from power as possible.

@scalzi

Give Rudy Tootie all the booze he wants. Good for his liver.

@scalzi That press conference at FSTL was one of the 12 happiest days of my whole life #philly
@scalzi I suspect the drinking came long before Four Seasons Landscaping.
@scalzi He was told to "Take the Fifth", but instead he "Drank a Fifth"
@scalzi Giuliani has always been a moron. It was by his hand alone that the emergency management command center was moved to the WTC complex... "Because it was more convenient". The idiot did that against the advice of his staff. Giuliani helped cripple New York Cities post disaster response on 9/11 and no one called him out for it.
