On election night in 2020, a drunken Rudy Giuliani went to the oval office to egg the delusional Donald Trump to ignore the ligitimate election results, and declare victory prematurely, calling for the counting of votes to be halted immediately. All while millions of votes had yet to be counted and added to the early vote totals. That was exactly what Trump wanted so desperately to hear. Never mind if the advice was coming from a drunken sycophant. Never mind that his campaign officials, his other advisors, and even his family members were all telling him it was too soon to claim victory. Trump still went out at 2:30 AM and proclaimed: “Frankly we did win this election!”

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.
“You will also hear testimony that Donald Trump rejected the advice of his campaign experts on election night and instead followed the course recommended by an apparently inebriated Rudy Giuliani to just claim he won and insist that the vote counting stop, to falsely claim that everything was fraudulent,” Cheney said.
