Whoever knew that Andrew Giuliani, son of Rudy Giuliani, wanted to go into politics? He doesn't plan to start at the bottom, either. His campaign is for governor of New York.
In a sign that he lives in a Trumpian Wonderland, Andrew seems to believe he is a successor to his Dad's kingdom of political influence. He also believes that he has five decades of political experience, though he's just 35 years old.
“Giuliani vs. Cuomo. Holy smokes. Its Muhammad Ali vs. Joe Frazier!” Andrew G. said when he announced his candidacy. (Which one is Andrew? Your guess.) “We can sell tickets at Madison Square Garden!”
Gail Collins, NY Times columnist who captured the quote above, asks, "Do you remember the time Andrew was a student at Duke, and sued the golf team when he got kicked off [it] for throwing an apple into another golfer’s face?"
The article she cites elaborates. "He acknowledged that he may have misbehaved," because he also "flipped his putter a few feet, threw and broke a club and gunned his engine in a parking lot." Then, too, Andrew's reported score in one golf tournament put him in the bottom half of a team of 14.
Admittedly, this is minor news, not worth our time. But -- can you imagine?!
