An ‘inebriated’ Giuliani urged Trump to falsely claim victory on election night

Former Trump attorney Jason Miller testifies that Giuliani who was advising Trump on election night was ‘definitely intoxicated’

Rudy Giuliani was “apparently inebriated” on election night in November 2020 when he urged Donald Trump to declare prematurely and wrongly that he had beaten Democrat Joe Biden for the presidency.

Republican congresswoman Liz Cheney of Wyoming, the vice-chair of the congressional select committee investigating the insurrection at the US Capitol on 6 January 2021 by extremist Trump supporters, declared as much during her opening remarks on Monday in the committee’s second public hearing of six in Washington DC. The first hearing was last Thursday.
