Giuliani obviously has a serious problem with alcohol, the overuse of which can have well-known deleterious effects on the brain. Long term alcohol abuse can cause serious damage to the brain's functioning as well as its actual structure. Even without knowing if someone is a long term heavy drinker, the effects can be quite obvious.

down his face, or Four Seasons Landscaping, and on and on and on.

What a hot, drunken mess he has become.

During and after 9/11, he was hailed from coast to coast as “America’s Mayor.” Felt like he was almost being put up for sainthood.

And now … this.

Hasan Minaj did a bit on that.

Personally, I think these people are all high on pills with questionable medical value. It's not like anyone drug tests them.

"I am disgusted and outraged at the out right lie by Jason Miller and Bill Steppien." - Rudy "Horse-mouth" Giuliani.

Take it up with them. They are Republicans. And know you!

And not just those two Republicans:

"It's just him and Rudy Giuliani, who is most of the time frankly, drunk. ...Trump...explained to a caller that he knew Rudy took a drink too many, and that he was a loose cannon, and that he said a lot of shit that was not true. But Rudy would...work for free." - Michael Wolff on CNN, discussing his book, Landslide, the Final Days of the Trump Presidency.

and what's even sadder, is that at first, concerned people do go to these alcoholics, and tell them to their faces that they are drinking themselves to death, that they must get help, must stop, etc.

They never listen or learn, and then end up dying. A never-ending drama for the alcoholic and their families, friends and those around them.

Very hard to make the right impression from the wrong hotel.

They are the right landscaping company, however — really really great people.

… The contradictory and stunning reality is that Giuliani Partners, the consulting company that has made Giuliani rich, feasts at the Qatar trough, doing business with the ministry run by the very member of the royal family identified in news and government reports as having concealed KSM—the terrorist mastermind who wired funds from Qatar to his nephew Ramzi Yousef prior to the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center, and who also sold the idea of a plane attack on the towers to Osama bin Laden—on his Qatar farm in the mid-1990s...

Crime decreases in NYC during his term for 2 reasons. A new police chief with revolutionary new ideas to get small criminals before the became big criminals, and it was 20 years after Roe v Wade. A lot of unwanted babies didn't happen. As for 9-11 it was a no brainer. The Feds came in in mass.

but he's well past his use-by date and should be ignored.

By trying too hard to be the man he once was all those years ago, he has destroyed any hero status he garnered during 9/11.

Just relax Rudy, stop trying to be an attention whore, and the rest of us - just ignore him.
He is just parroting the lies built up by TFG.
Both Donald and Rudy lost any rational thinking skills years ago, and their particular line of 'reality' can't be shifted with discussion or evidence that they are wrong.
TFG will take his 'I was robbed!' line to the grave.
The J6 people should just take anything Rudy says with a shrug of the shoulders. TFG is the one to focus on, not Rudy.

Plenty of other senior citizens with the same head problems you could point at. Demented, out of touch with reality, not open to dialog, and incompetent.
You may have one in your own family?
You know, the person who still hasn't gotten over 'their' side losing the Confederate Civil War (1861 to 1865) or hates all modern things German and Japanese because of WW2?
