Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani has been hospitalized in Florida and is in critical condition, President Donald Trump announced on Sunday. The 81-year-old former mayor, who later served as Trump's personal lawyer, was admitted to an undisclosed medical facility, though details regarding the nature of his ailment or the exact location remain unclear.
Spokesman Confirms Critical but Stable Status
In a statement posted on X, Giuliani's spokesperson Ted Goodman confirmed that the former mayor 'remains in critical but stable condition.' The brief update did not specify the duration of his hospitalization or the medical condition prompting his admission.
Trump's Tribute to Giuliani
President Trump took to social media to express his concern, calling Giuliani 'a True Warrior' and 'the Best Mayor in the History of New York City, BY FAR.' Trump's post highlighted Giuliani's recent health battle but did not provide additional medical details.
Giuliani's Role in Trump's Legal Team
In recent years, Giuliani served as Trump's lawyer and played a key role in efforts to challenge the 2020 presidential election results. He was involved in pressuring legislatures in seven battleground states won by President Joe Biden, actions that have since drawn legal scrutiny.
The news of Giuliani's hospitalization comes amid ongoing legal challenges and public interest in his health. Neither Trump nor Goodman disclosed the specific hospital or medical condition, leaving many questions unanswered.
