Washington Post audio of Trump berating and threatening Georgia Secretary of State for not "finding" votes to change election result. Sedition?

[Faun]

“I think you’re going to find that they are shredding ballots because they have to get rid of the ballots because the ballots are unsigned. The ballots are corrupt, and they’re brand new, and they don’t have seals, and there’s a whole thing with the ballots. But the ballots are corrupt.

And you are going to find that they are — which is totally illegal — it is more illegal for you than it is for them because, you know, what they did and you’re not reporting it. That’s 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. And that’s a big risk.”

That's Trump threatening legal action against Rafensburger if he doesn't concede to Trump's insane attempt to overturn an election that has already been certified

No one was shredding this year's ballots.

Ballots are kept as records for X many years...might be 4 years, before they are discarded.... They were shredding on schedule, a previous election's ballots.

Wow

Germany: This is Ryan Germany. No, Dominion has not moved any machinery out of Fulton County.

Trump: But have they moved the inner parts of the machines and replaced them with other parts?

Germany: No.

Trump: Are you sure, Ryan?

Germany: I’m sure. I’m sure, Mr. President.

Trump: What about, what about the ballots. The shredding of the ballots. Have they been shredding ballots?

Germany: The only investigation that we have into that — they have not been shredding any ballots. There was an issue in Cobb County where they were doing normal office shredding, getting rid of old stuff, and we investigated that. But this stuff from, you know, from you know past elections.

Trump: It doesn’t pass the smell test because we hear they’re shredding thousands and thousands of ballots, and now what they’re saying, “Oh, we’re just cleaning up the office.” You know.

Raffensperger: Mr. President, the problem you have with social media, they — people can say anything.

Yanno...................Georgia only has 16 electoral votes. Granted, whoever wins the state gets all of them, but here's my question...............

Trump lost to Biden 306 to 232 in the electoral college. Now, 306 minus 16 is 290. 232 plus 16 is 248. Even if GA decided to flip, Trump would still lose 290 to 248. Why is it that Trump and his followers have decided to die on this particular hill? Even if GA did flip over to Trump, he'd still lose the election.

This is a huge waste of time for Trump and his supporters. Why can't they just accept the fact that Trump lost, and there is nothing that will change that?

President Trump also won
PA, Mich, Nevada, and Wisc.

If Trump actually won those other states you claim, then why is he focusing on just GA? There hasn't been much of a peep out of Trump and his cronies for those other states you mentioned.

who knows. maybe he has been harassing them per phone as well.

you could make a great mash-up, where melissa carrone (sp?) and trump team up vs. the COMMIE-FASCIST.

are you sure, did you do something crazy with it, ryan? did you take the machinery with you into the sauna?

President Trump urged fellow Republican Brad Raffensperger, the Georgia secretary of state, to “find” enough votes to overturn his defeat in an extraordinary one-hour phone call Saturday that election experts said raised legal questions.

The Washington Post obtained a recording of the conversation in which Trump alternately berated Raffensperger, tried to flatter him, begged him to act and threatened him with vague criminal consequences if the secretary of state refused to pursue his false claims, at one point warning that Raffensperger was taking “a big risk.”

Throughout the call, Raffensperger and his office’s general counsel rejected Trump’s assertions, explaining that the president is relying on debunked conspiracy theories and that President-elect Joe Biden’s 11,779-vote victory in Georgia was fair and accurate.

Trump is engaging of sedition and overturning the will of the people through fraud.

Trump should be arrested for sedition for attempting to overthrow the newly elected government of the United States of America.

Everything Trump touches dies.

Is American democracy next?

america isnt a democracy you stupid fuck,,,

Dumbfuck, Georgia is a democracy and Impeached Trump threatened Georgia's Secretary of State with "vague criminal consequences" to "find" enough votes to overturn the will of Georgia's voters.

Funny how none of you libtards can quote the threat.

I have posted the audio tape 5 times. Why don't you LISTEN to it?

 

[Hutch Starskey]

impeached for what?????!!!!

Trump knows he won the real vote. That's why Democrats on this board want him impeached.

Trump has bigger, long term plans, mentioned in the tape he needs Georgia to change their vote, so the other states will then follow.... or something of the sort.

Really? You think that there are enough states that will flip in the next 2 weeks, even if GA flipped tomorrow? I know that you are just bringing up a situation that Trumpsters would hope for, but please, don't give them more ammo to disagree with the election results. If Trump was REALLY serious about trying to flip the election, he would have gone after more states than just GA. Going after only 1 shows that he's not really serious. Apparently, he thinks he can flip one, but in order to win the election, he'd have to flip several, and that is never gonna happen. Not going after you Care, just saying what I think about the idiots who support Trump and his attempt to flip just one state (that is going to fail). Why is it that Trump can only focus on one state, when if he was serious, he should be focusing on several? I guess that Trump thought he could intimidate GA, but knows that the other states would tell him to fuck off.

He can't flip any states at this point. What he's trying to do is to get states to admit there is doubt about election so that Congress will be inclined to reject the electoral college votes -- which would almost assuredly result in the states electing him as president.

maybe those other people who had to endure rambling bullshit by the internet troll in chief did not record the conversation and share it. would we know about the content of this call without someone publishing the recordings? i think not.

Big difference is that Georgia has a Republican SOS and Governor. Not true for Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, so Trump isn't likely to be able to land a phone call to have the opportunity to berate these officials. He did have meetings with the legislatures of Pennsylvania and Michigan, but those were in person so not surprising that they weren't recorded and leaked. Even then, he wasn't accusing these legislatures of the things he's accusing Raffensperger of doing since the Georgia SOS administers the election.

 

[postman]

The call was inappropriate.

The Georgia Sec State should never have agreed to talk to one candidate in the election without including the other candidate.

Trump: Find enough votes until I am elected

You always have to accept a call from the president of the united states. But it was not only wildly inappropriate, but also illegal.

I haven't been keeping track of Trumps lawsuit over the release of the audio tape, but it doesn't look good when they have him on tape asking a state official to "find" aka illegally create, 11,780 votes and certify them for Trump.

 

[Hutch Starskey]

..just like all the other dumbshit--Mr Trump ties his shoes -IMPEACH him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Attempting to pressure a subordinate to "find some votes" is at best an abuse of power. Hardly insignificant.

but he's not pressuring --how many times are people going to spew shit---that's only your OPINION

Seriously? The POTUS, the LEADER of your PARTY, the LEADER of your NATION, who can politically wreck your career isn't "pressuring" when he spends an hour on the phone telling you you have to find some votes.

You guys must be a special kind of stupid...or maybe it's just the koolaid you consume.

Raffensperger wrecked his career all by himself.

Ya, integrity tends to be a career wrecker when it comes to Trumplicans.

"Integrity" my ass. Raffensperger is the one who made the decision to by the Dominion voting machines. He ran the election. If fraud is uncovered, then it's his ass hanging on the petard.

I'm always curious why Trump never reveals his anonymous sources.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

Ultimately my point was the fact that the media has once again twisted what was said to influence their unassuming public, and they lap it up like dogs to vomit.

Well your point is stupid, since they are Trump's own words. Everyone knows what he was doing. Even you.

So I ask you as well........have you listened to the full tape? Nevermind I couldn't care less if you did or not. I refuse to argue with the blind........but I never did say they weren't Trumps own words.

I have listened. Just more overt corruption from president slimeball. Just what we have come to expect.
