The New York Post reported: "Rudy Giuliani is exploring running for New York City mayor next year, political insiders say.

Giuliani, reached by The Post on Sunday at his Palm Beach, Fla. home, said, "I’m not going to say never, ever, ever."

Still, he said, as of now, "I’m not running for mayor."

"But then there are a lot of people who want me to run for mayor," he said. "But it’s unlikely."

Giuliani, 80, was a Mafia-busting federal prosecutor before serving as Gotham’s mayor from 1994 to 2001, earning the nickname "America’s mayor" for his leadership after 9/11 — and then spectacularly falling from grace.

These days, he is busy fighting a $148 million judgment and facing two criminal indictments for allegedly interfering in the 2020 election. He has already been disbarred from practicing law in DC.

Giuliani said Sunday that the idea of him running for mayor might not be so far-fetched, even if he hasn’t officially thrown his hat in the ring.

He cited the alleged corruption in the Adams administration and said the other likely candidates for mayor are dangerously far-left.

"Everyone running for mayor looks like they’re from Red China. They don’t look American," the ex-mayor said. "I’m concerned about the city becoming a Democratic dictatorship."'
