<p>Trump&#8217;s announcement comes less than 48 hours after <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/rudy-giuliani-hospitalized-after-vehicle-struck-from-behind-at-high-speed">Giuliani</a>, 81, reportedly sustained serious injuries in a car accident in New Hampshire when another vehicle struck his from behind at high speed.</p>
<p>Michael Ragusa, <a href="https://www.newsnationnow.com/politics/trump-rudy-giuliani-presidential-medal-freedom/">Giuliani&#8217;s</a> head of security, issued a statement on Sunday, saying, &#8220;Prior to the incident, Mayor Giuliani was flagged down by a woman who was the victim of a domestic violence incident. Mayor Giuliani immediately rendered assistance and contacted 911. He remained on scene until responding officers arrived to ensure her safety. Following this, while traveling on the highway, Mayor Giuliani’s vehicle was struck from behind at high speed.&#8221;</p>
<p>The 19-year-old driver of the other vehicle also suffered non-life-threatening injuries in the crash and both vehicles were badly damaged.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.jba.af.mil/News/Commentaries/Display/Article/338041/mayor-shows-exemplary-leadership-during-911/">Giuliani</a> served as Mayor of New York City from 1994-2001, and earned the nickname &#8220;America&#8217;s Mayor&#8221; for his leadership in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks that brought down the World Trade Center.</p>

<p>Writing of the experience in his 2002 book &#8220;Leadership,&#8221; Giuliani noted that he&#8217;d returned to Ground Zero a number of times on that horrific day.</p>
<p>&#8220;I needed to see with my own eyes the disaster site and our rescue operations, and get a sense of what we would be dealing with in the months to come,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>Of his efforts to put forth a positive message and bring New Yorkers together as they dealt with the tragic loss of life, he wrote that he &#8220;had to communicate with the public, to do whatever I could to calm people down and communicate with them.&#8221;</p>
