Donald Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani has repeatedly hit the headlines for things going wrong in recent weeks; from his hair dye running down his face to that scene in Borat 2.

Now it has happened yet again, with people convinced that he farted twice during a meeting about alleged electoral fraud.

The alleged flatulence took place on Wednesday evening during a conspiracy-filled hearing in Lansing, Michigan, BuzzFeed News reports.

In the video below, Borat Comments on Giuliani's "innocent sexytime encounter":

Answering a question from Michigan state Rep. Darrin Camilleri about the New York Times story that the 45th President of the United States has already discussed issuing preemptive pardons for Giuliani and his three eldest children, Giuliani refused to answer.

"I will ask that he be disciplined for that," Giuliani said and it was then that a faint farting sound appeared to be picked up by the 76-year-old's microphone.

A second bout of flatulence appeared to be recorded 90 seconds later when Giuliani reacted to Attorney General Bill Barr's statement no evidence of electoral fraud had been found in the 2020 presidential election.

"The answer that I gave you was that they didn't bother to interview a single witness," Giuliani said as what appeared to be a second fart was picked up by his microphone.

The apparent farts were shared on Twitter by HuffPost reporter Ryan Reilly and his cropped video of the incident has been viewed 3.2 million times at the time of writing.

Reilley captioned the footage: "I present this clip of Rudy Giuliani testifying without editing or commentary."

Reacting to the footage, some Twitter users appeared to notice Jenna Ellis, another attorney assisting Giuliani in fighting the result of the 2020 election, appeared to give the 76-year-old a side glance when the second fart was picked up by his microphone.

One Twitter user wrote: "JENNA'S FACE

"Rudy farting so loudly that the mic picked it up and Jenna could barely hold back a laugh is peak 2020, man. Girl, aren't you sad you refused to wear a mask?

"#ThursdayThoughts #thursdaymorning"

A second added: "Jenna heard. Jenna knows. Rudy farted. We all heard it & saw her reaction. 2020 is the gift that keeps on giving."

Meanwhile, alongside three laughing emoji, a third simply joked: "Odor in the court!!"

Buzzfeed reports that Giuliani was not sworn in at the hearing, meaning that he was under no legal obligation to tell the truth.
