https://www.rawstory.com/2020/04/giuliani-trying-to-regain-relevance-by-advising-trump-behind-the-scenes-on-coronavirus-cures-report/According to a report in the Washington Post, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is slowly reinserting himself back into White House affairs by advising Donald Trump on possible cures for the coronavirus.
Giuliani, who has mostly dropped out of sight since the GOP-controlled Senate refused to oust the president after the House presented them with articles of impeachment, popped up on Fox News on Sunday to make the case for alternative cures for COVID-19 and has also been calling the president the report states.
The report notes Giuliani .has cast himself in a new role: as personal science adviser to a president eager to find ways to short-circuit the coronavirus pandemic, adding, In one-on-one phone calls with Trump, Giuliani said, he has been touting the use of an anti-malarial drug combination that has shown some early promise in treating COVID-19, the disease the novel coronavirus causes, 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.

But Giuliani didn't even have an uncle who taught at MIT so I don't see how he could advise T-Rump

If this pandemic wasn't already bad enough, Rudy will make it worse, on live national TV, on every cable outlet, during prime time.
Somebody, please make it stop!
