There is a breaking story today about a tape-recorded call which is said to have taken place yesterday between President Trump and the Georgia Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger.
This is an interesting story in light of the article I published earlier today about the valid election challenge that remains pending in Georgia, with signs that it is being purposely stalled until such time as the outcome of the case can have no impact on either the election or public perception of the events playing out right now.
The tape was obtained by the Washington Post, but several media outlets are reporting on the contents today.
But the context of the conversation, and Pres. Trump’s comments seem to be mischaracterized to some degree. Most of the “usual suspects” in the media are treating the President’s comments as if he was demanding that Raffesperger fabricate inaccurate election results, referencing Trump’s suggestion that Georgia simply “recalculate” the outcome such that the numbers come out in his favor. But, in the same comment, it is reported that Pres. Trump again claimed that there is no possible way he lost the vote in Georgia and his claim that he won the state by “hundreds of thousands” of votes.
It is also noted that the call involved other participants. White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and Cleta Mitchell, a Republican lawyer, were also on the call. I have not seen any clear statement yet that Pres. Trump participated during the entire length of the call, said to have been an hour. I have a suspicion that he did not....

They would have used anything to “trigger” the fake impeachment that failed. It was planned before he took office. There are no politics with leftists.
Exactly. Thank you.
It happened. And it is being spun.
Of course, the 48 hour rule should apply. More will be learned, and it probably won’t be to Ole Raffie Boy’s benefit, and thus not to the Turtle’s either.
And I have a feeling that what will be learned about in terms of what Raffie was trying to achieve with this call will be linked to what Shipwrecked Crew points out in this piece and his companion piece.
So he writes for RedState. He has interesting things to say that worth knowing.
The call is a boomerang what will hit Raffie in the face, if his people are the ones to have released it. It could have been released by someone else to cause him problems, I suppose.
LOL UH NO..All Trump did was repeat in that phone call every single thing he tweets every single day..Good God some people are buffoons..Trump believes votes were “lost” AKA, stolen from him..DUH, we all know the Georgia election was totally fraudulent, a blind squirrel would know it
Now who is insulting. Not having any of it. “Please stop” is simply a “please clap” JEB bushie kind reposte.
Raffensberger as SOS was OUTED in this transcribed call, fully released to public— the Voters of Georgia now know for certain beyond any doubt that he is a criminal actor in this. The Governor- should call the Legislature to save his own a@@- and he won’t, so the Legislature will move on their own to de-certify.
He had a chance to come clean with his pal Stirling the crook private COO he contracted who is not a GA State employee as the Constitution of GA requires. They were both paid off up to their a@@es with Chi-com money, kickback for the massive purchase of Dominion machines, along with the deep embedded dem machine criminals of Fulton County.
The WH leaker (if there is one who is not part of this directed op) is under arrest at this point- or not if it was the inner circle putting the screws to this MORON Sec. State. The State of GA Legislature is going to have to de-certify their Electors-— Game- Set- Match.
Overwhelming, massive physical, video, digital and personal witnesses to statewide FRAUD and criminal acts— to include the Sheriff of Fulton County!
Yes, I figured as much, which is why I wrote in my first comment, “I wonder what Raffensperger had to say in this call and how he may have incriminated himself.”
I have not listened to it yet. I plan to.
My guess is that Trump did not talk too much and let the lawyers handle most of the call.
What specific law did they violate, and who would be arresting them?
Just curious: Who do you think really leaked the call in the first place?
The fake-news MSM is finally talking about the Democrat Party Cabal's massive nationwide Presidential election fraud. Of course, that's not how they describe it.
Democrats are again using their trusty go-to tactic: Democrats perpetrate bad stuff, then blame Republicans for what Democrats themselves perpetrated.
Fake-news MSM is now relentlessly hammering President Trump 24/7 about that recording. CNN said it will continuously air that entire recorded conversation over the next several days. CNN played one segment of Trump discussing election fraud for 5 minutes. The CNN host then said (paraphrase): I must inform our audience that everything you just heard Trump say -- every word of it -- is a lie. None of it is true. None of it. Everything Trump just said has been fully litigated in many courts and rejected by one judge after another.
Wow. That CNN host is deadly serious. She glared into the camera, coldly informing the audience that what President Trump is now saying and doing is dangerously destructive to our election system and democracy.
See what I mean? Democrats perpetrate bad things, then blame Republicans for what Democrat themselves perpetrated.
No! This has only fired up his base! They are pulling the same crap they did with a Ukrainian call where schift lied to the Congress! Trump had to release the transcripts to prove his innocence because the bastards and the mediavomits were lying through their teeth to the American people! Same scenario same crap!

It’s a standard deception tactic for the @washingtonpost
to release a few minutes of a 30 minute phone call to create the false impression Trump was urging @GaSecofState
to COMMIT voter fraud. Instead Trump was urging him to EXPOSE the voter fraud committed by the Democrats
Trump plays the MSM like a fine violin. A subject the media has refused to report on is now being reported. Their false story will crumble away to reveal the true story.
False. CNN said it will continuously play the entire recorded conversation, in segments, over the next several days. The CNN host said that in one segment, Trump talks for 10 minutes straight about election fraud, with the Georgia SoS not saying a word. The CNN host played a 5 minute portion of that segment. After playing it, the CNN host told the audience everything Trump just said is a total lie.
Fake-news CNN is playing for keeps. No messing around. Play segment. Tell audience that everything Trump said is all lies. Play next segment. Inform audience that's another section of continuous Trump lies. Rinse, Repeat ... (apparently for the next several days on all the fake-news MSM networks.) Dead-serious CNN is now priming all the Biden voters for January 6.
this was all more of a foreign coup than a US Presidential election at this point
Has ANYONE PLAYED the tape? Has ANYONE HEARD the tape?
The full call total exonerates Trump but hey it was a nice narrative for a few hours
You watch CNN lol
NO!

If they thought Biden actually won, they wouldn’t need to record phone calls with the President that then get leaked to the corrupt media. The left is going to implode this week.
