Trump on phone

From Ukraine to Georgia USA all my calls were “Perfect”

He released the statement after it was reported that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis requested the formation of a special grand jury to help her office with its ongoing investigation into whether Trump’s efforts to pressure Raffensperger constituted criminal conduct. Prosecutors found “possible criminal disruptions … to unlawfully alter the outcome of the 2020 elections in this state,” Willis’ office said in its letter to a judge requesting the special grand jury. In his phone call to Raffensperger on January 2, 2021, Trump repeatedly asked the secretary of state to “find” an additional 11, 780 votes — one more than the number of votes Joe Biden won Georgia by in the 2020 election — to swing the state’s election results in Trump’s favor. “The people of Georgia are angry — the people in the country are angry,” Trump said during the call, which was first reported on by The Washington Post. “And there’s nothing wrong with saying, you know, um, that you’ve recalculated.”
