Maybe this explains the erratic behavior of Giuliani:
Some of Trump’s allies have suggested that Giuliani be barred from evening interviews because of concerns that he was going on TV after drinking, according to three Republicans close to the White House.
Giuliani has previously insisted he does not have an issue with drinking, denying to Politico last May that it affected his interviews. He added: “I may have a drink for dinner. I like to drink with cigars.”
This is good Rudy weirdness (and his penchant for immediately contradicting himself):
“I am afraid it will be on my gravestone. ‘Rudy Giuliani: He lied for Trump.’ Somehow, I don’t think that will be it,” Giuliani told The New Yorker. “But, if it is, so what do I care? I’ll be dead. I figure I can explain it to St. Peter.”
"Welcome to IIHS HQ, or Immigration Into Heaven Service Headquarters. Please watch your step as you leave the train. You have arrived in Judgement City. I will be the angel with whom you will be working, during your time here."
Rudy: "Judgement City? Wait....Are you St. Peter? Because you're not what I pictured him to be like, at all!"
"No. I'm not St. Peter. He's much too busy dealing with bigger issues, right now. I'm just an angel who found her way here a long time ago. Call me, Lola."
"Lola. That's a lovely name. I had a girlfriend, once, named Lola."
"I doubt she was anything like me."
"Oh? She was a lovely woman. And very good in...oh, wait. What do you mean, not like you?"
"I'm transgender. But I digress. Are you prepared to answer the questions we have today?"
"Transgender...Oh, I hope Brett Kavanaugh is prepared for you when he gets here. Nice wings, by the way. Bet you can just zip right along with those on, eh?"
"Are you prepared to answer the questions, Mr Giuliani?"
"Ha! Oh, uh, questions! Yes, questions! Shoot! Go ahead. I'm really good at answering questions!"
"I see. Yes, answering questions does appear here on your sheet. In bold type, too. Something of a specialty of yours, was it?"
"Oh, yes! I have often been asked many questions, and I always have a good answer!"
"Okay, well, let's start with an easy one. When you were answering questions back in 2018 and 2019, did you ever knowingly mislead or fabricate or obfuscate in order to advance a cause or acting as an agent of a cause, a cause, which in particular, may have enabled President Trump?"
"Oh, Mr. Trump. May he rest in peace. Well, I, I don't know about that. That was a long time ago. I mean, it's been more than a few years, and I can't recall every conversation or question I answered about Mr. Trump, in those days, but if I had said something that was perhaps misleading or not necessarily fully true, I was unaware of it, for sure. He is resting in peace, isn't he?"
"I'm sorry, I can't answer that. He could be resting in peace. Maybe he is, maybe not, but if he is, well, then he is, and perhaps that is the case, or it isn't, but could be. Anyway, when you say you were 'unaware of it', 'it' being something 'misleading' or not 'fully true', what exactly do you mean?"
"I mean, I didn't know whether I did or didn't know what I was saying at the time, as I was just acting on behalf of the President, I mean, sometimes I was, perhaps, but not always, maybe, you know. I mean it's possible, but not likely, as I was just...um... I mean, I was just answering questions. It didn't mean anything, you know."
"I'm not sure that I do
'know', Mr. Giuliani."
"Rudy! Just call me Rudy."
"Let's go with Rudolph. Now, with regard to this,uh, situation, we have a document here that says,
“I am afraid it will be on my gravestone. ‘Rudy Giuliani: He lied for Trump.’ Somehow, I don’t think that will be it,” Giuliani told The New Yorker. “But, if it is, so what do I care? I’ll be dead. I figure I can explain it to St. Peter.” How DO you explain that, now that you are here in Judgement City?
"I was misquoted. Plain and simple. And if I had said that, I was only being hypothetical. And besides, you're not St. Peter!"
"No, I'm not. I'm actually the one who decides if you cross over the border to earn your way to the Pearly Gates where you can discuss things with St. Peter. But I have his authorization to deny that circumstance, if I feel that you aren't being forthcoming."
"Well, how are you able to tell whether I'm forthcoming or not?"
"With this handy little device, 'The Soul Detector'. We just scan your soul and we can easily detect if you cross the border here, or if you are denied entry and sent to a holding station, or returned to Earth to live a more humble experience, say in Guatemala or El Salvador, or someplace worse."
"Some..place..worse? You mean. Like Russia?"
"I think we both know where that some place worse really is, Rudolph. Now, if you don't mind, this won't take but a minute. It is quite accurate. A Mr. Jobs came up with it for us. It has really improved the process. Green means go, yellow means, wait, and red...well, red means...Anyway, please bend over so I can administer the scan. "
"What?! Wait! I was told to say those things. It wasn't my idea, I had no knowledge of the truth! I only did what I was told! See? I'm being honest, now!"
"You were only, shall we say, 'following orders', Rudolph? Don't make this difficult. Bend over, please. It takes only a minute for the scanner to do its work."
"Oh, my. The scanner is really lighting up. It's positively glowing red! That is not good, Rudolph. Red means you're going somewhere, but I don't think you're going to like it!"
"No! Wait! I need to see your boss! Right away!! St. Peter! St. Peter! Where are you, SAINT PETER??!!!"
