Rudy Giuliani, former New York City Mayor and one-time personal attorney to Donald Trump, has been admitted to a hospital and is reported to be in "critical but stable condition." The specific reason for his hospitalization has not been publicly disclosed by his spokesperson, Ted Goodman.
Giuliani, 81, was confirmed to be in the hospital on Sunday, May 3rd, according to his representative. Reports indicate his voice was noticeably hoarse and he coughed during a recent online program. This hospitalization follows a series of significant health and legal challenges he has faced recently, including a car accident in New Hampshire less than eight months prior.
Trump, reacting to the news on his social media platform, Truth Social, referred to Giuliani as a "true warrior" and "the best Mayor," expressing concern for his well-being. He stated Giuliani is "a fighter who has faced every challenge in his life with unwavering strength."
