“@RudyGiuliani, by far the greatest mayor in the history of NYC, and who has been working tirelessly exposing the most corrupt election (by far!) in the history of the USA, has tested positive for the China Virus. Get better soon Rudy, we will carry on!!!” he wrote.

His son, Andrew Giuliani, who is a public liaison assistant to Trump, tested positive for COVID-19 about two weeks ago.

The former mayor has been in charge of leading the legal team attempting to overturn the presidential election, which has repeatedly been tossed out of court in multiple states around the country.

In the past few weeks, Rudy has traveled to states including Michigan, Pennsylvania and Arizona to appear at campaign events alleging voter fraud. Judges in Nevada, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Wisconsin and Michigan have all dismissed cases in recent weeks, citing lack of evidence.

He also went viral in November for a bizarre press conference, and was caught in controversy due to his appearance in Borat 2.
