Recorded Call Between Trump and Georgia SOS

[Winehole23]

The irony of Republicans crying about election fraud while the leader of their party basically says "commit election fraud or else" with multiple witnesses listening in

Imagine the denouement where they don't understand even after the open betrayal of other Republicans publicizing the phone call. Proceeding just the same as before.

As if nothing had happened. You don't have to imagine, it is already happening

Contemporaneous crime tends to blot out the past tense.

Rest assured, whenever Derp’s day shift at the Victorville Olive Garden, he’s gonna be autisticallt screeching about how Raffensperger illegally recorded a “confidential settlement discussion”. That’s what the most regarded MAGA s appear to be going with.

DMC deflecting harder than he ever has before all for a guy he “didn’t vote for”

[Winehole23]

deep background I had forgotten about Paul Ryan

[florige]

He's still going to call himself the president after January 20th and all the Trump s will pretend he's still president. He really is going to try to start a second civil war.

Who cares what that moron thinks after Biden is sworn in. All his "real" Presidential powers will be gone. His supporters will have to get over it or be arrested if they try some over take the government nonsense.

Almost 40 percent of America think the 2020 elections were rigid
31 percent independents
17 percent of democracts

Elections were rigid. Ok. Which word is mispelled...rigid or elections?

Please....make it go away.

[Blake]

whew. You had me nervous. Derp, and all of his alts efforts had made him a real contender for the dumbest lowlife alive.

good you could come back and make sure your position is safe

I don't understand his supporters at all. He lies about everything under the sun and NEVER provides any kind of proof on ANYTHING yet they still believe this moron. I don't get it. Do they not understand how the law works or something?

Right wingers' feelings don't care about facts. They have been snowflakes for 25 years ever since Gingrich and Limbaugh started telling them to be.

Thread comparing Hitler followers to Trumps is not a troll thread. The similarities are real.
Cult characteristics abound.

They don't believe him. They don't care what he said/did. They just want what they think he can give them.

Can't even lie, this sh1t looks bad

Here's to hoping he cancels his GA rally.

[DMX7]

That's what I was thinking... This is Trump's "Nixon tapes".

If he did the rally and just stayed focused on endorsing Loeffler/Perdue rather than ing he’d actually help them, but he seems incapable of that.

Not sure if him cancelling that rally helps them though, that’s the outcome I’m rooting for as someone who wants Ossoff/Warnock to win.

It’s been what? 10 or so hours since this dropped. He hasn’t tweeted or been seen since.

I don’t know how you can honestly say vote for these guys while there is a tape of you asking someone to commit crimes for you.

[vy65]

That “attempt to threaten” language is intentionally broad. An AUSA could argue that Trump’s references to “wanting an accurate election” and “you know what they did and you’re not reporting it ... that’s a criminal offense” do just that

All the turnout models I’ve seen (and these aren’t based on polls, they’re based on runoff EV data + actual 2020 results) show that Perdue/Loeffler have a several hundred thousand vote deficit they need to make up on Election Day, and the only way that happens is if Trump gets his base out. If Trump doesn’t show up maybe Loeffler/Perdue win more never Trumper votes in suburban Atlanta but I think their base stays home on Tuesday if there’s no Trump rally.

Why does it matter so much who wins in Georgia?
