We’re just days from Congress certifying the election for Joe Biden and Donald Trump is getting even more desperate than ever as he begins to come to grips with civilian life that brings potentially devastating legal issues and financial problems.
With that desperation comes even more desperation with a bombshell dropping Sunday (via the Washington Post) that revealed the President of the United States pressuring Georgia’s Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and other Georgian Officials to “find 11,780 votes” to overturn Biden’s win in the State.
You can listen to the full audio below:
Among some of the most reveling tidbits of the hour-plus phone conversation was:
- Trump urging Raffensperger to simply tell the public that he “recalculated” the results and determined the president won the state.
- Trump asked Ryan Germany, general counsel to the secretary of state to substantiate baseless rumors that Trump ballots in Fulton County were “shredded” by poll workers and that Dominion removed voting machines to swing the final vote tally in Biden’s favor.
Via Axios:
TRUMP: “You know what they did and you’re not reporting it. Thats a criminal, that’s a criminal offense. And you can’t let that happen. That’s a big risk to you and to Ryan, your lawyer. “

TRUMP: “So tell me Brad, what are we going to do? We won the election, and it’s not fair to take it away from us like this. And it’s going to be very costly in many ways. And I think you have to say that you’re going to reexamine it, and you can reexamine it, but reexamine it with people that want to find answers, not people who don’t want to find answers.”
RAFFENSPERGER: “Mr. President, you have people that submit information, and we have our people that submit information, and then it comes before the court, and the court then has to make a determination. We have to stand by our numbers. We believe our numbers are right.”
–
TRUMP: “You should meet tomorrow. Because you have a big election coming up, and because of what you’ve done to the president … a lot of people aren’t going out to vote, and a lot of Republicans are going to vote negative, because they hate what you did to the president … you would be respected, really respected, if this thing could be straightened out before the election. You have a big election coming up on Tuesday.”
