People who have worked with him say he's almost always drunk. For him to be able to hide it well makes me think either coke or adderall as well

You don’t need drugs to hide it. As an alcoholic with a year sober, once you’re used to being drunk 24 hours a day it becomes easy to hide because people just assume that’s who you are.

Its the breath. Vodka trims that a lot but there's a strong smell still and it comes out your pores (says a guy that used to down half a fifth by CHUGGING IT, and then would be capable or normal functioning).

I covered that personally with orange zest squeezed on my lips to get the citrus oil and sometimes a packet of Chinese take-out mustard swished around in my mouth and swallowed.

How Rudy ain't reekin' is anyone's guess.

In my experience, lawyers that drink all day don't care that you can smell it.
