Trump Advisors Were Brutally Honest In Private That Fake Electors Were, In Fact, ‘Fake’​

A month after Election Day, a lawyer working on Donald Trump’s bid to steal a second term in office was brutally honest — if only in private — about the effort to submit fraudulent slates of Electoral College votes from several states around the country.

“We would just be sending in ‘fake’ electoral votes to Pence so that ‘someone’ in Congress can make an objection when they start counting votes, and start arguing that the ‘fake’ votes should be counted,” said the Arizona lawyer Jack Wilenchik, in an email to trump advisor Boris Epshteyn.

Wilenchik then had second thoughts.

“‘alternative’ votes is probably a better term than ‘fake’ votes,” he said in a follow-up email, alongside a smiley face emoji.

The emails — reported by The New York Times Tuesday — show the frantic, sometimes bumbling nature of the Trumpian effort to steal power and subvert democracy.

Yes, when you're trying to pull off a coup, using the term "fake" electors to describe the phony slates of electors Trump cronies wanted to submit as a means for Pence to refuse to certify Biden's election....well....it's not a good idea.

The fake elector scam being one of two primary facets of the DoJ's investigation along with Trump's attempt to corrupt the DoJ (more than Billy the Bagman already had) by using it to persuade battleground states to reject their election results.

Uggh. If the fraudulent votes were thrown out, those new electors would be the right electors

What fraudulent votes? Oh, wait, do you mean the ones with the bamboo in the ballot paper or the ones altered by the Italian satellites?

Nope. The fake electors were not approved by the proper authorities. They were not submitted by any Secretary of State, any legislature, or any Governor.

They were 100 percent bogus. As in, illegal. As in, criminal.

Welcome to the Orwellian world of TrumpCo.

Lies = "alternative facts".

Fake electors = "alternative electors".

Ignorance is Strength.

And that written admission is in fact fraud.

Things could get very interesting

are yall going to burn down entire city blocks again when a republican takes the WH in 2024 again or are yall going to start after the mid terms when the violent baby killing left loses congress ?

Idiot seems confused between election vote and electors.

Fucking dunce

Bingo.

‘The Votes Aren’t Legal Under Federal Law’​

In his Dec. 8 email to Epshteyn, Wilenchik had described Trump advisor Kenneth Chesebro’s thinking in painfully blunt terms — characterizing major legal questions in breezy prose as others fretted over the consequences of what they were about to do.

“His idea is basically that all of us (GA, WI, AZ, PA, etc.) have our electors send in their votes (even though the votes aren’t legal under federal law — because they’re not signed by the Governor); so that members of Congress can fight about whether they should be counted on January 6th,” he wrote to several others, referring to Chesebro.

Well, let me answer this question since you've asked it in two different threads now. 1) A 2024 victory for Republicans is a very healthy assumption. Long way to go. Even November is far from certain for Republicans taking control of anything since they have a special knack of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory (see the 2020 GA Senate races). 2) Ron DeSantis right now is your best hope at a 2024 Republican President..if you're smart enough to kick Trump to the curb (no, they won't be running mates)..which I'm betting most of your side..isn't that smart.

It's going to be popcorn munching fun for Democrats.

The trump Nazis have shown they will swallow all the Kool-aide their cult leader hands out. It's been going on since he announced his intention to run for POTUS in 2015, and with each of his lies, crimes, and failures the trump Nazis' devotion to their wannabe führer has increased.

you didnt answer the question ... but anyone with a brain already knows the answer ..

 

[Lesh]

The fact that these Republicans have documented that they KNEW these were fake electors exposes the whole fraud...and fraud is a crime

 

[JackOfNoTrades]

It's been answered. No. They won't. But you already know that. What happened in the summer of 2020 had nothing to do with the political climate.

And at the same time blame it on ANTIFA or the FBI. Or BLM

Powell, et al., took the "evidence" they had and were laughed out of court in 60 venues.
