Trump's legal advisers urge him to cancel press conference to refute Georgia allegations: Sources
ABC News ^ | August 17th, 2023 | Katherine Faulders and Jonathan Karl

Former President Donald Trump's promised press conference to refute the allegations in the indictment handed up by the Fulton County District Attorney's Office is now very much in doubt, multiple sources familiar with the matter tell ABC News.

Sources tell ABC News that Trump's legal advisers have told him that holding such a press conference with dubious claims of voter fraud will only complicate his legal problems and some of his attorneys have advised him to cancel it. Trump announced the planned press conference with a social media post shortly after he and 18 co-defendants were indicted late Monday in Georgia. He said he would present, "A Large, Complex, Detailed but Irrefutable REPORT on the Presidential Election Fraud which took place in Georgia."

Georgia's Republican governor responded to that with his own social media post declaring, "The 2020 election in Georgia was not stolen. For nearly three years now, anyone with evidence of fraud has failed to come forward -- under oath -- and prove anything in a court of law.”

Campaigning in Iowa, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said he agreed with Kemp. And so did former Vice President Mike Pence, who said on Wednesday, "The Georgia election was not stolen."

There is no backing down. The communist dictators are out for blood. Take it to them and shove the evidence of fraud right in their faces. They have made this “them or us.”

This fight won’t be won by lawyers. It will be won by the American people...in the streets, if necessary.

Maybe some of the info. he has, is best reserved for the trial?

That's the best advice. If there's any information that will exonerate the defendant, present it at the trial. Disclosing it on TV is a publicity stunt. Why disclose it to the prosecution, before the trial begins?

Trump won’t backdown!

If Trump has irrefutable proof that will refute the charges against him, he should save it for the courtroom. Trotting it out for his supporters to cheer serves no purpose at all.

They did an audit - it validated the machine count results.

Not a good idea for Trump to give a “A Large, Complex, Detailed but Irrefutable REPORT on the Presidential Election Fraud which took place in Georgia.”
Opponents only need to discredit one example of fraud to cast doubt on the whole thing. Better to only show examples that can be proven beyond doubt.

That might be good advice.It’s understood that that Black panther whore will pick words from it to use in court. “See,he admitted it in August of ‘23” she’ll scream when,in fact,he did no such thing.

It’s called giving away your Miranda Rights which any thing he says can be used against him unless you realize you already screwed and it doesn’t matter at this point

First thing I look at is who’s the source?

It never has with Trump, he was impeached for a perfect phone call about Biden's corruption.

Regardless of source, it will ‘out.’ Let’s see if the presser goes on as planned.

BS. Here is a video of a woman counting the SAME ballots 3 times you fool. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/08/chris-wray-strikes-again-georgia-poll-workers-caught/

I suggest we have 1 repub w EVERY 1 dem COUNTING the ballots. No “running” the ballots for joey through 3 or 4 times. Why cannot the repubs stand NEXT to them? When they say they are leaving and are done counting for the day a repub has to watch them ALL leave and guard the building so that they do not return or that trucks w boxes do not enter and deliver MORE dem ballots.

Why is this so hard? Guard the counters (why dems get to count and repubs are to stand in an area far away is STUPID). Stand NEXT to the dem counters and stay with them when they say they are done and want to leave. Guard the building-it is a public building outside. Stay there so that no “delivery trucks” appear, drop off boxes and leave. Is it me or is this so easy and nobody protects our ballots? Get he people who run the banks to do this. If they are off a penny they have to account for it. They do not get to run the money through multiple times.

Are Dems the ignorant ones or are the Repubs for allowing this idiocy. And then they let the dems COUNT the ballots for week after til THEY win. How dumb are we to allow this. We THE PEOPLE need to look over this and not the idiots they pay to deceive us.

“It’s called giving away your Miranda Rights which any thing he says can be used against him unless you realize you already screwed and it doesn’t matter at this point”

Yeah, the government got a warrant for his Twitter and didn’t inform him. I don’t they give a damn about his “rights”

They INTEND to use whatever he says against him.

IMO, anyone who doesn’t recognize how the 2020 election was stolen from President Trump is unequivocally deaf, dumb and blind.

DeSantis, Pence and Kemp.
