Son’s Antics During Giuliani’s Speeches Beginning to Weird People Out

New York, NY - Ex-New York City Mayor, current presidential candidate Rudolph Giuliani spoke to a capacity crowd of healthcare workers this morning. But what once unfailingly delighted reporters and constituents alike during Giuliani’s earlier public life was met with confused and concerned looks today: specifically, the physical antics, funny faces, and gesticulations Giuliani’s son Andrew feels compelled to perform during his father’s speeches.

“First of all, his sheer size, now that he is a 20-something adult, obstructs Rudy sometimes completely from the cameras. Also, it’s just a little weird for people to accept a full-grown man dancing around and beating his chest like an ape while his father describes how he faced the horrors of 9/11,” says political consultant Val Miller.

Andrew also seems to have added a flourish of the facetious to his goofing around. “This new layer to his antics would kind of make sense considering he apparently hates his father,” observed political news blogger Mary Till. “You’ll notice sometimes during Rudy’s speeches, he’ll just walk up and stand stock still, staring into the side of his father’s face while he speaks–as if he’s going to murder him.”
