Rudy Giuliani claimed that he was assaulted in a supermarket, but the surveillance video told a different story.
The New York Post gave Giuliani’s version of the story:
All of a sudden, I feel this, ‘Bam!’ on my back,†Giuliani said. “I don’t know if they helped me not fall down, but I just about fell down, but I didn’t.
“I feel this tremendous pain in my back, and I’m thinking, what the — I didn’t even know what it was,†he said. “All of a sudden, I hear this guy say, ‘You’re a f–king scumbag,’ then he moves away so nobody can grab him.

“And he says, ‘You, you’re one of the people that’s gonna kill women. You’re gonna kill women,’ †Giuliani said, quoting the suspect, who now faces assault charges. †‘You and your f–king friend are gonna kill women.’ Then he starts yelling out all kinds of, just curses, and every once in a while, he puts in that woman thing.”

Rudy Giuliani continues to embellish the story and claim that he felt like he got shot.
The video above shows that Giuliani got a slap on the back, and what he is really mad about is the fact that he got called a scumbag.
Rudy Giuliani is clearly lying, and if anyone were to face criminal charges, it should be Giuliani for falsely claiming that he was violently assaulted.
Giuliani appears to be in the midst of a prolonged public meltdown. In May, he screamed at people attending a parade.Â
If Rudy Giuliani can’t handle a slap on the back, he is definitely not going to do well in prison.
