Drunken Rudy Giuliani Reeked of Alcohol While Giving Donald Trump Election Advice, Witnesses Reportedly Tell Federal Prosecutors

Special Counsel Jack Smith's team questioned witnesses about Rudy Guiliani's boozing to find out if former president Donald Trump was knowingly taking advice from a questionable source amid his and his co-conspirators' alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election results, RadarOnline.com has learned.

Prosecutors have taken a particular interest in Guiliani's drinking on and after election day, according to a sensational new report, and they are investigating whether or not Trump was aware that he was relying on an inebriated attorney.

Some witnesses claimed to have seen the former New York City mayor consuming significant quantities of alcohol, sources said. Some of whom apparently told the special counsel's office that alcohol could be smelled on Giuliani's breath, including on election night, and that they noticed distinct changes in his demeanor.

It was reported that some witnesses told investigators they were aware of moments when Trump had spoken about Giuliani's drinking and that he had viewed it negatively.

If that is true, it would likely undermine one of Trump's key legal defenses that he was simply heeding the advice of his counsel, Rolling Stone reported.

For his third indictment, Trump faces four charges: conspiracy to defraud the United States; conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding; obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding; and conspiracy against rights, all for which he has denied wrongdoing.

The indictment in Washington, D.C., claimed Trump "was determined to remain in power" despite losing to President Joe Biden.

Prosecutors have been investigating if the former commander-in-chief attempted to thwart the transfer of power in the wake of the November 2020 presidential election or made efforts to interfere with the certification of Electoral College votes on January 6, 2021.

It marked the second indictment sought by Smith in recent weeks.

Trump, meanwhile, was also hit with 40 federal felony counts in Florida related to his alleged mishandling of classified documents retrieved from Mar-a-Lago after he left the White House. He pleaded not guilty.
