Donald Trump announced plans to present Rudy Giuliani a medal, calling him the greatest mayor in New York City and an equally great American patriot. Giuliani spokesperson Ted Goodman praised Giuliani as highly deserving, credited him with taking down the Mafia, saving New York City, and comforting the nation after 9/11, and thanked Trump for the honor. Goodman sustained injuries in a car crash that also involved Giuliani. Giuliani rose to prominence after 9/11, advised and later joined Trump’s 2016 team, and has since faced bankruptcy, criminal charges, disbarment, and a settled defamation suit.
Driving the news: Trump called Giuliani "the greatest Mayor in the history of New York City, and an equally great American Patriot" in announcing his medal plans on Truth Social. What they're saying: "There is no American more deserving of this honor," Giuliani spokesperson said Ted Goodman in a post to X on Monday.
"Mayor Rudy Giuliani took down the Mafia, saved New York City, comforted the nation following 9/11, and served in countless other ways to improve the lives of others," added Goodman, who was also injured after the car he was driving the former mayor in was struck from behind in New Hampshire on Saturday. "Thank you, President Trump, for honoring his life and legacy."
