Giuliani, a familiar voice in Trump's ear, promotes experimental coronavirus treatments
Source: Washington Post
Rudolph W. Giuliani, who was in the center of the impeachment storm earlier this year as an unpaid private attorney for President Trump, has cast himself in a new role: as personal science adviser to a president eager to find ways to short circuit the coronavirus epidemic.
In one-on-one phone calls with Trump, Giuliani said, he has been touting the use of an anti-malarial drug cocktail that has shown some early promise in treating covid-19, but whose effectiveness has not yet been proved. He said he now spends his days on the phone with doctors, coronavirus patients and hospital executives promoting the treatment, which Trump has also publicly lauded.
I discussed it with the president after he talked about it, Giuliani said in an interview. I told him what I had on the drugs.

The White House did not respond to a request for comment about the presidents conversations with Giuliani.

(47,547 posts)but I was hesitant to ask, as whenever we say his name, he magically appears, much like Beetlejuice. "Giuliani, Giuliani, Giuliani" and there he is like a ghoul.
I think you're on to something.
We must never speak his name, so he goes away permanently. Fingers crossed. 🤞

Ben Carson, and Ronnie Jackson.
Probably Rand Paul as well.

(9,426 posts)Finally, someone with as much knowledge of the situation as Kushner. At least as much education about the problem. So, is Rudy all done digging up dirt on Hunter Biden? Is he just taking a break from the backbreaking job of sniffing around for "dirt"? tRump is staying the course, getting people with absolutely no expertise to advise him about problems. Rudy will have to wait though, since tRump is golfing today. No word if Graham is along for the game. We are paying $45,000 to rent golf carts, so there must be several people along for the trip.

Bet he bought funeral home stocks!
