President Donald Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani repeatedly coughed throughout a Monday interview with Fux Noise as he attacked Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden for urging Americans to listen to scientific experts and wear masks amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Giuliani told Fux Noise host Martha MacCallum that he was awaiting his test results after working in close contact with Trump and other advisers on the president's debate preparation team, who have since tested positive for COVID-19.
"I actually got one about two hours ago," Giuliani said, adding that his first test was negative. "I haven't gotten the results yet. I went to NYU. I got one of those all the way in the back of the nose tests."
He then went on to criticize Biden for telling Americans to follow the advice of scientific experts on the coronavirus.
"I would say to Joe that you don't really understand what scientists are," Giuliani said. "First of all, listen to your doctors. They know your personal history. Doctors really aren't scientists. Scientists almost always have competing opinions. That's what science is about."

You're ignorant, stupid and rude.
You're also a drunk.

(6,279 posts)First he says you shouldn't appeal to science in medical matters because doctors are the ones who really know, and doctors are not scientists, and anyway science gives conflicting ideas... then he says science doesn't support Biden's wearing of masks. Which is it - science does, or does not, have the answers about such things?

(6,279 posts)I didn't see him cough once. He had a gravelly voice like he had a cold but the headline is false.
As false as the bullshit Ghouliani's spewed with his words...
ON EDIT
The clip I saw at the link in the OP didn't include the coughs. But I was able to find the coughing and LisaL found another link too (thanks! )

(6,279 posts)And a timestamp? I just lost 5.5 minutes of my life listening to him blather on FOX listening for a cough and would like to go straight to the hack's hack!
I watched the video embedded at the link below the sentence,
"Giuliani told Salon's Roger Sollenberger after the interview that his test on Monday came back negative, and he had "no symptoms."

(44,974 posts)Mayor Giuliani, thank you so much for your time, and we look forward to having you back. And I hope that cough is not anything bad while you are waiting for your test to come back, she said, adding: We hope you will be healthy and well.
