Embattled former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani says he has not ruled out having another crack at the job in future, and that there are “a lot of people” who would want him to run again.

The former Trump attorney told tabloid newspaper The New York Post that he was “not going to say never, ever, ever,” but that he was not currently considering another mayoral election campaign.

It comes as Giuliani continues to face the fallout from a defamation case against two election workers, to whom he now owes $150 million. A federal judge recently ordered him to hand over his Manhattan property along with a slew of other valuables to Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss.

The 80-year-old previously asked the court for an exemption for his Palm Beach condo, though a judge is yet to rule on whether it too will be handed to Freeman and Moss. However, speaking to The Post on Sunday from his Florida residence, the cash-strapped former mayor was already mulling over a return to public service. “I’m not going to say never, ever, ever,” he said, adding that “there are a lot of people who want me to run for mayor,” but that it was currently “unlikely.”

1. He's Gotta Find Some New Grift

I don't think this will get past the grifting stage.

[Vinca]

9. He's also got to find a place to live. Maybe Ruby and Shay will rent the apartment back to him.

2. "another crack"? Lay down the pipe, Rudy. Your fantasy world is not real. . . . . nt

[moreland01]

3. LOL

That's hilarious.

[BoRaGard]

4. Campaign slogan: "I was suckered by the G.O.P. Felon/Rapist."

"So none of that evil, skanky shit is my fault. Really. I was a hapless sucker, like so many other MAGAts. Therefore, you should take pity on my sleazy, skeezy republicon keester, and vote to make me your Big Time Big City Mayor again. Or else."

5. (finally stops laughing after several minutes) Oh honey...

Between the Four Seasons fiasco and that glossy of you looking like you just whizzed on the electric fence with the fake-hair gunk dribbling down the side of your mug, you are already face down in the water. Don't start farting now.

6. BAAAAHAHAHAHAAAaaaaaaa......

[democratsruletheday]

35. LOL: RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDY!!!!!!!!!!!!

he's a fucking circus clown on acid

[Javaman]

8. sociopaths gotta sociopath. nt

[carpetbagger]

10. Is he ruling out another run away from Borat and that teen in the hotel room?

Because I'd laugh almost as much at that as him running for mayor.

[Harker]

11. Nailing down half a dozen votes isn't the way to relive the glory days.

What a buffoon.

As I'm a Blackhawks fan, I've stopped saying "what a maroon."

[msfiddlestix]

12. It's about the grift. I guess a half dozen supporters might fund a one way trip to Sicily.

[Harker]

13. It has to be.

"Shameless " is a considerable understatement.

[msfiddlestix]

16. Quite So. Sad, Pathetic and kind of gratifying to see him finally fall unearned grace after all of these long long years

of life long corruption and scum-baggery.

[Grins]

14. "...there are "a lot of people" who would want him to run again."

Name one.

And they have to live in NYC, be a voter, and not be an out-of-state MAGA crackpot .

[markodochartaigh]

15. LOL.

Rudy joins the rarefied pantheon of public figures like Nixon and OJ. People who literally had it all, but through flaws in their character, lost it all.

To paraphrase a Klingon, "I shouldn't have said that he should be hauling garbage. I should have said that he should be hauled away as garbage."

[markbark]

17. Thanks! I needed a good laugh this AM!

[Prairie Gates]

18. Have they dumped his furniture on the sidewalk yet?

[mountain grammy]

19. Ha

[Novara]

20. That's fuckin' hilarious!

Delusions. It's what's for breakfast.

[Rebl2]

21. 🙄🙄🙄🙄

NO. JUST NO.

[SpankMe]

22. I wouldn't vote for him as mayor of Shit-town

This feels like an Onion headline.

[City Lights]

23. LOL.

Ok, Rudy. Whatever you say.

[Martin68]

24. Rudy, Rudy, Rudy. Doesn't know when to quit.

[Butterflylady]

25. My dog would beat him.

[IbogaProject]

26. Great idea

He will need to establish residence in NYC and then his Florida assets can be seized as he can't claim Florida Homestead protection on his place in Palm Beach.

[Faux pas]

27. GUF EFFING FAW

[OAITW r.2.0]

28. Suggest making the official announcement at 4 Season's Landscaping.

[dchill]

29. He should pursue his nascent career in acting...

... He should have gotten an Oscar for his role as an irredeemable pervert in "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm."

[pwb]

30. The never admit defeat or weakness thing

doesn't work anymore Rudy. Find a nice place bud and look back on your life. Your politics are played out.

[duncang]

31. The grift idea is going strong.

Also he probably thinks mayors get complete immunity. I wonder when he started drinking today?

[Voltaire2]

32. He's obviously on crack or crank.

The headline is actually ‘Delusional shithead thinks NYC still adores him.’

[Jim__]

33. I thought Rudy found his gig as a professional greeter

[patphil]

34. Rudy's expiration date past over a decade ago.

I doubt if he could poll more than a couple percent in the 2025 Republican mayoral primary in NYC.
Go back to sleep Rudy.

[Aristus]

36. Is there going to be a revival of "The Apprentice"?

They’ve already had one comically buffoonish right-wing shithead in loads of debt who needs the salary.

[Jk23]

37. I mean he can run...

Reminds me of Anthony Weiner's campaign.

[maxsolomon]

38. It's almost like there's a button you push with long-time pols

and out comes a focus-grouped evasive answer: "not ruling it out".

Dude, you're 80, and a delusional, bankrupt joke. Fade away.

Why is the NY Post even asking this question? Murdoch's handed out "reputation rehabilitation" orders?
