Trump demanded in an hour-long rambling call with Georgia's Republican Secretary of State that he 'find' a way to overturn Joe Biden's win

'All I want to do is this – I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have. Because we won the state,' Trump said on the call

A recording of the phone conversation was obtained by The Washington Post

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger told President Donald Trump on the Saturday call that Biden's win in the Peach State is legitimate

~~~~~~~~~~

Donald Trump, in a rambling, unprecedented hour-long call with Georgia's Secretary of State Saturday night, pressured him to 'find' enough votes to overturn his defeat in the Joe Biden in the southern state.

'So look. All I want to do is this – I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have. Because we won the state,' Trump said during the leaked call, which was obtained by The Washington Post and released, in part, on Sunday.

The recording of the conversation depicts a desperate president berating Brad Raffensperger, a fellow Republican, to do anything to change the outcome of the presidential election in Georgia.

'The people of Georgia are angry, the people in the country are angry,' Trump said on the call. 'And there's nothing wrong with saying, you know, um, that you've recalculated.'

HERE’S A 4 MINUTE EDITED VERSION OF THE CALL

QUESTIONS: WHO LEAKED AND WHO EDITED??

[bitt]

P

[Meatspace]

The person who leaked the tape should be arrested.

[Phillyred]

This has been debunked. UNFOUNDED. No evidence.

[Shady]

Exactly. Every phone call that the President makes is classified. Arrest and prosecute and remove security clearance forever..

[ifinnegan]

Deep state shenanigans.

Nothing wrong with Trump telling Raffsburger or whatever his name is to follow the law.

[Alberta's Child]

Oh, please. How can a phone call that is placed to someone outside the authority of the U.S. government be considered classified?

[Renegade]

Fake news!

[stylin19a]

ThanQ for the ping.

I wonder who leaked this call ?
WAPO selectively edited it. I'd like to hear the whole thing. WAPO is reporting on things we didn't hear.

[A_Former_Democrat]

Yep. Just like the fake France War cemetery BS and the low level low life “anonymous” BS

[liberalh8ter]

The lengths these Chicom co-conspirators will go to save their collective a$$es is amazing.

[White Lives Matter]

They’re making the narrative that Trump is trying to steal the election and if he does get his second term this will be grounds to impeach him again based on another phone call. .

[KittyKares]

This has been debunked. UNFOUNDED. No evidence.

You said this in another post, too. Can you kindly share your evidence?

[Scott from the Left Coast]

Wait a minute...wait a minute...why is Trump even on the phone with Raffensperger? Does he not know after four years what will happen, what HAS to happen if he does this?

After four years does he not understand who and what he dealing with? Talking to Raffensperger at all is either extreme hubris or extreme stupidity, or both. Does he not understand the game?

You don’t talk to people who want nothing other than you - dead. If he wanted to communicate with Raffensperger, he should start by fire-bombing his home with his family in it. That would communicate. Otherwise you are just offering to be their butt boy...again. No wonder the government class has run circles around him, kicking his ass for four years. This is just stupid.

[Professional]

What would the purpose of editing the call be? Hmmm?

[Bob434]

Hey WP- how about posting videos of Biden threatening the Ukraine? Or snippets from hunter’s laptop?

[spetznaz]

I believe that 90% of the people around President Trump don’t want him there. Maybe not 90% - maybe 50% is a more realistic number. Either way, he needs to really be careful who he opens up to. Even in the SCOTUS he really only has Alito and Thomas, who can be counted on to at least be consistently Conservative. Even his three nominees failed him.

This must be why he has his family around him - at least he knows he can trust those people. Just imagine if he had a supportive government? What he would have done? He spent his first three years fighting attack from the Dems, and now even the Republicans are throwing barbs.

[OldGoatCPO]

Everything you said is spot on. When you look at the GOP, McConnell, Lindsey 1.0, Romney, Towmey, Ratshitperger, it is time to dump the GOP.

On January 6th to commentate the day, every Trump supporter should go online and change their designation from GOP to Independent. Let the GOP see the exodus of support and let them try to figure out how they survive the next election cycle. Trump will campaign against those who screwed him over. Kemp and Ratshitperger are toast but they keep doubling down as if anyone will ever believe them again, let alone vote for them.

Just because you change your designation to Independent does not mean you cannot vote for GOP candidates, but it sends a stark warning to the RINOS. Trump drove the number of people registered as GOP through the roof, time to take the RINOS back to reality.

[enumerated]

I listened to the four minute edited version - no doubt edited to try and make him look bad - but all he does is tell the truth as he sees it.

This leaked call doesn’t hurt President Trump in the least - any more than the Ukraine call.

In fact, I’d call it “a perfect call”. :-)
