    Trump urged Justice officials to declare election ‘corrupt’

    President Donald Trump urged senior Justice Department officials to declare the results of the 2020 election “corrupt” in a December phone call, according to handwritten notes from one of the participants in the conversation.

    “Just say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the R. Congressmen,” Trump said at one point to then-Acting Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen, according to notes taken by Richard Donoghue, who was then Rosen’s deputy and who was also on the call.

    Trump wanted to use the delay caused by the insurrectionist mob to get the traitor caucus to certify fake electors and hand him the presidency despite being voted out of office.

    And you’re going to vote for him again.

      handwritten notes

      So no way of knowing when they were written, got it. At least it sounds better than anonymous sources.

        Conservatives have a long history of ushering in Fascists because of scary leftists demanding things like labor rights or equality for sexual minorities.

        So yeah. Big shock there.

            Trump is the pro-fascism candidate, as he has openly admitted. Mind you, if he didn’t lose you back when he openly came out as pro-rape, it’s no surprise nothing else he does or says is capable of losing your support. Dude is both incompetence and malice incarnate at the same time, doing the most evil shit imaginable like separating children from their parents and then losing the paperwork. If you’re still voting for him, you’ve committed to hurting your fellow Americans (and yourself) as much as possible. How does one reason with a person like that? You openly desire my suffering. That’s really challenging to overcome.

            Damn, you got me again with the “no you.”

            I’ve gotta stop forgetting that you’ve got one perfect response to everything!

            Funny how you accuse Biden of being a leftist and a fascist at the same time. Almost like you don’t care about the meaning of words.

            Fascism is a reactionary movement against socialism, which is why fascists in power always purge socialists. I can see though that you don’t let facts get in the way of your conservative ideology.
