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."

Well, isn’t it a good idea, to listen to your lawyers, when in legal trouble?

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

Stay tuned.

But Of Course …… no lamestream media would cover anyway. The truth must NOT be made known according to our betters. The lies must continue

As long as Trump’s challengers on the (so called R side) deny the 2020 steal, THEY WILL HAVE ANY CHANCE STOLEN FROM THEM in 2024.

Yeah, Kemp didn’t look very hard, either.

He might have as well been a Democrat.

“sources” tell abc news and any other media talking points to be used to take Trump out of the election.

The only question this brings to my mind is: Who the hell on Trump’s legal team is talking to ABC News?

They had a recount but decided to not look into the multitude of perfectly filled out ballots with perfect little ovals and going 97-3 for Biden.

“multiple sources familiar with the matter”

IOW absolutely no way to confirm truthfulness of this report.

Let me try. Uh, “multiple sources familiar with the matter” have reported that Joe Biden allegedly has sex with minors and boils puppies and kittens for his own sick pleasure.

Sure hope PDJT’s lawyers don’t actually believe there wasn’t any fraud. He needs much smarter minds than that defending him.

Bannon also mentioned how the presser is now uncertain.

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