He's a psychopath, narcissist, bully and pathological liar, not to be trusted and would steal lollipop from a toddler. Give that spoiled brat anything, and he will in time burn it to the ground. Did I leave anything out? Oh yeah, he's great at manipulating simpletons and will say just what you want to hear, while positioning the dagger behind your back. The lies eventually cut both ways, and he'll then double down by torching the place. In that regard, you can rely on him! He's completely transparent to everyone except the fawning cultists and the spineless cowards.
It’s crazy that the Republicans think they would even need a rebuild after the success they had across the nation in the last election. Their only weakness last go around was Trump. But, hey, who am I to stand in the way of an internal GOP meltdown?
As outlined in bold below -- Her firm has a clear policy against providing legal representation for any party involved in seeking to contest the results of the presidential election. She is hours away from being fired. Trump attorney’s own law firm is running away from her after shocking election interference phone call https://www.rawstory.com/trump-phone-call/ One of the Trump attorneys who was on the controversial phone call where the president asked Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to "find" enough votes to overturn the election outcome is facing a probe by her own law firm. "A Milwaukee-based law firm is distancing itself from one of the attorneys involved in President Donald Trump's disturbing call trying to overturn the results of the Georgia election," the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported Monday. "Cleta Mitchell, a partner at Foley & Lardner, participated in the Saturday call in which Trump pressured the Georgia secretary of state to 'find' 11,780 votes to help Trump win that state's election." Dan Farrell, director of communication for Foley, issued a statement on the scandal. "Foley & Lardner LLP is not representing any parties seeking to contest the results of the presidential election. In November, the firm made a policy decision not to take on any representation of any party in connection with matters related to the presidential election results. Our policy did allow our attorneys to participate in observing election recounts and similar actions on a voluntary basis in their individual capacity as private citizens so long as they did not act as legal advisers," Farrell explained. "We are aware of, and are concerned by, Ms. Mitchell's participation in the January 2 conference call and are working to understand her involvement more thoroughly," he added. Reporter Michael Schmidt of The New York Times noted that it was unusual for an attorney at a white-shoe law firm to join such an effort. Former Rep. Tom Coleman (R-MO) was one of many people wondering if Mitchell may face criminal liability for her role in a "criminal conspiracy." The firm has also received push-back from the Lincoln Project.
No, you and your weird friends lost. The US will go down the crapper even deeper if Senile Joey becomes President.
Raffensperger Admits: If Trump Didn’t Falsely Tweet About Our Call, ‘We Would Have Stayed Silent as Well’ https://www.mediaite.com/news/raffe...our-call-we-would-have-stayed-silent-as-well/ Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said in a new interview Monday that his office would not have said anything about his call with Donald Trump if the president hadn’t falsely tweeted about it. As Politico reported today, Raffensperger’s office decided to record the president because of Trump’s record of “reinventing history.” And as one adviser put it, “So if he’s going to try to dispute anything on the call, it’s nice to have something like this, hard evidence, to dispute whatever he’s claiming about the secretary. Lindsey Graham asked us to throw out legally cast ballots. So yeah, after that call, we decided maybe we should do this.” And in that call, Trump very clearly pressured Raffensperger on the election results, falsely claimed he won Georgia, and threw out a number of conspiracy theories Raffensperger and his general counsel had to smack down. 11Alive reporter Brendan Keefe directly asked Raffensperger, “If the president hadn’t tweeted, and tweeted something that was false, would we have ever heard that call recording?” “No, it was a private conversation,” Raffensperger said. “He broke privacy when he put out a tweet, but then his tweet was false.” He said there was no agreement to keep the contents of the call confidential and added, “If President Trump hadn’t have tweeted out anything and would’ve stayed silent, we would’ve stayed silent as well. And that would’ve just been a conversation between him and I, man to man, and that would’ve been just fine with us. But he’s the one that had to put it out on Twitter.” “And if you’re going to put out stuff we don’t believe is true, then we will respond in kind.” Some Trump allies have responded to the stunning call from the president by saying the real outrage is that it was leaked.
Top Georgia election official says White House pushed him to take Trump call https://www.reuters.com/article/usa-election-trump-idUSL1N2JF0U1 Georgia’s Republican top election official said on Monday the White House had pushed him against his better judgment to take a call from President Donald Trump in which he pressured the state to overturn his November presidential election defeat there. In the call on Saturday, Trump told Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to “find” enough votes to overturn his election loss in the southern state, according to a recording published by U.S. media. “I never believed it was appropriate to speak to the president but he pushed out, I guess he had his staff push us. They wanted a call,” Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger told ABC’s “Good Morning America.” A state Democrat has called for a probe into whether Trump had violated Georgia election law on the call. Raffensperger and his office’s general counsel rejected Trump’s assertions of electoral fraud in the hour-long conversation. “We took the call, and we had a conversation. He did most of the talking, we did most of the listening,” Raffensperger said. “But I do want to make my points that the data that he has is just plain wrong. He had hundreds and hundreds of people he said that were dead that voted. We found two. That’s an example of just his bad data.” Trump for two months has been claiming contrary to evidence that his loss to Democratic President-elect Joe Biden was the result of widespread fraud. Multiple state and federal reviews, as well as courts, have rejected those claims as unsupported.. Biden won the state-by-state Electoral College by 306-232 and carried the popular vote by more than 7 million ballots. The only Democrat on Georgia’s election board, David Worley, asked Raffensperger to investigate whether the president had violated state law that prohibits solicitation to commit election fraud. “To say that I am troubled by President Trump’s attempt to manipulate the votes of Georgians would be an understatement,” Worley wrote on Sunday in a letter to Raffensperger that was seen by Reuters. Raffensperger said the district attorney in Fulton County, home to Atlanta, might be the appropriate authority to carry out such an investigation. The county’s district attorney, Fani Willis, did not immediately return a request for comment. In another blow to Trump, staunch conservative U.S. Senator Tom Cotton refused to sign on to a long-shot campaign by nearly a dozen other fellow Republicans in the U.S. Senate this week to challenge Biden’s victory, warning it was outside of Congress’ power and would “establish unwise precedents.” In a statement on Sunday, Cotton said he would not join his colleagues Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley and others in defying Republican Party leaders by objecting on Jan. 6 when lawmakers meet to tally the votes in the Electoral College - a largely symbolic act of certification. Cotton noted that limited, symbolic role in his statement, saying any such refusal to carry out its duty “would take away the power to choose the president from the people, which would essentially end presidential elections and place that power in the hands of whichever party controls Congress.” Cotton, Cruz and Hawley are among those considered possible 2024 presidential candidates. Trump, who has not conceded defeat, has also floated the idea of running again in 2024. Several moderate Republicans have also joined Democrats in criticizing Cruz, Hawley and others for undermining the of the voters and planning to object -- a move they say will not succeed in installing Trump but will erode confidence in U.S. democracy. It was not immediately clear how the release of Trump’s call with Raffensperger could impact the Republicans’ objection plan. “This call was not a helpful call,” Republican U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn, who is among those planning to object to the certification, told Fox News in an interview on Monday. House of Representatives Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy defended Trump’s call in an interview with Fox News on Monday. “The president’s always been concerned about the integrity of the election, and the president believes that there are things that happened in Georgia that he wants to see accountability for,” McCarthy said. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell has publicly acknowledged Biden’s win. U.S. Vice President Mike Pence, who will oversee the Jan. 6 proceedings, has said the Republicans have the right to object. Even if Republicans in the Senate were successful in their objections, the campaign would fail in the U.S. House, which is controlled by Democrats.
