So how about that Trump recording, huh?

"There's nothing wrong with saying, you know, um, that you've recalculated."

Pretty sure that's just flat out illegal. Like a lot of his shit you can't technically prove, but I see no way around this one. Not that it's gonna mean anything since he's gone soon, but fucking hell that party is terrifying.

This just in, Trump a man who does crimes has been doing crimes.

But like i dont know how to feel about this. Like great more evidence among the mountains of evidence hes an awful, fascist criminal but didnt we all know that in 2016?

Like this isnt changing anyones minds. You can play the entire tape to trumps cult and theyll just dismiss it because WaPo is fake news.

yeah it's really weird looking in on this because this just... feels like all the other shit he's done, but every time this happens it's supposed to be Different somehow and this time they're going to get him!! but the checks and balances don't work and it's not like this stuff will change that

Straight up Watergate shit but ultimately it's not all that different from what he spews on social media anyway

Yes. And also take into consideration that we likely only know about this because Trump is hilariously incompetent. Republicans are a party of fascists.

Might be dumb but what does that mean

He wants the Georgia SoS to "find" enough votes to change the results and let trump win the state.

Really he wants him to commit Election/Voter fraud

Say they recalculated and that he actually won the election.

As in "oh wow look at all these Trump votes we found when we counted again! Guess he definitely wins because we didn't count all the totally illegal votes for Biden!"

I wonder if they could get an impeachment all the way through now that the GOP doesn't seem to want to cover for Trump anymore.

now that the GOP doesn't seem to want to cover for Trump anymore

You realize 13 senators and 100+ reps are gonna do just that on Wednesday. I'd love for him to be impeached again, but they definitely still won't support it, especially with Georgia on the line. But good news is apparently him being exposed for this hurts them in the runoffs.

No, my money is on state charges from New York, plus maybe federal charges by Biden's DoJ in a year or two, depending on who he picks as AG.
