A tipsy Rudy Giuliani advised Donald Trump in early November 2020 to prematurely and wrongly claim election victory. Top advisers to then-President Donald Trump told him at the time that his claims of widespread electoral fraud were not legitimate and would not undo his election defeat. But Trump wouldn’t listen. This is all evidenced by testimonies to the House of Representatives committee investigating the storming of the Capitol on January 6, 2021. The purpose of the storming at the time was to undo the election results, because they were said to be illegal.
