Aug 17 (Reuters) - Former U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday he had canceled a press conference scheduled for next week to release a report into the 2020 election in Georgia, saying his attorneys would put his arguments in court filings instead.
Trump said earlier this week that he would hold the press conference on Monday to release a detailed, 100-page report into what he described as "election fraud" in the state of Georgia during the 2020 election he lost to Democrat Joe Biden

“we”? What should “we” be doing?”
“We” should be crashing our local federal representatives offices. Make them come home and answer for their crimes and/or neglect. Make shit run up hill.
*Where’s the kaboom?!*
They couldn’t figure out how to turn it into something marketable like trading cards or something.
Have you ever tried to defend yourself before a Kangaroo Court?
But, he has umdespudable proof!!!
“Except that the judge most likely will not permit “ammunition” (exculpatory evidence) to be presented.”
This is a piece of the puzzle that many Trumpists do not get. He is not in control of the situation, the communists are. They control the Grand Juries. They control the prosecution. They control trial juries. They control all trial proceedings via the commie judges, through allowing or denying evidence and testimony. We have already seen judicial abuses repeatedly in the past few years where judges forbade discussions or evidence germane to the cases before the court. They control the appeals courts. They control the pardon process (in Georgia there is essentially no pardon possible until at least five years in prison, the goobernor has no pardon power in GA).
They control the ballot access through the Secretaries of State. They control the election tabulation. They control the narrative.
Too many Trumpists crow about the polling data showing him so far ahead that the contest is over (he may be and it might be) but are dismissive of other polling indicating that perhaps 55% or more of the electorate will not vote for him no matter what.
I do not see any way out for him short of Divine intercession...
“I’ll use them anyway I like.”

Of course, just having fun. Have you seen the movie Sling Blade? It’s pretty good.

Lol, yes good movie... Sorry about the micromanagement comment. I have a personal sore spot issue against micromanagement. I am so sick of society, especially these kids micromanaging stuff that is none of their business at all. lol
Went to the parts store yesterday. The kid behind the counter was telling me twenty reasons why I could not buy the part I wanted because he was smarter than me. I own a repair shop and I knew what I needed but he just had to micromanage the situation out of habit and bad upbringing. So I finally asked for a manager, then I asked the manager if they are in the business to sell me parts or not? If you are in the business to sell parts then you need to get rid of this kid...
Lol
Smart, that is why you pay them the big money.
Testify in court? Unless I’m way off base, I don’t see that.
Must have come up short.
From Trump himself on truth Social:
Rather than releasing the Report on the Rigged & Stolen Georgia 2020 Presidential Election on Monday, my lawyers would prefer putting this, I believe, Irrefutable & Overwhelming evidence of Election Fraud & Irregularities in formal Legal Filings as we fight to dismiss this disgraceful Indictment by a publicity & campaign finance seeking D.A., who sadly presides over a record breaking Murder & Violent Crime area, Atlanta. Therefore, the News Conference is no longer necessary!
Wonder why he wasn’t hearing the hold back advice from the get go? Frankly, who is going to make the case for him? Trump on the stand? That’s riskier than his now canceled presser.
And Trump desperately needs to win the public argument - not just the courtroom argument. He’s going to be in court for years, and he can’t afford to not win the election.
If he’s waiting to introduce his evidence at trial, he will have failed at swaying public opinion. His tactic in court is to delay. Which means after the election. My guess is he at the end of the day came up short on what he had to present. I don’t think he wanted another Lindell swing and miss.
Uhh… he WAS the President
What’s stopping you?
He now has subpoena power, because of the charges against him. He has never had the opportunity to have the story heard in the public domain. Trump doesn’t have to testify. He has the evidence to do the talking for him, along with people who uncovered the information.
I never thought trump would end up being a kept man. He’s on a short leash.
When it seems that nearly all judges and all prosecutors attached to Trump’s legal cases are openly and proudly biased against him, that makes for a very high wall to climb over.
Many would say it will be impossible to climb over and prevail, but we shall see.
There does not appear to be any downside for these officials acting in this manner.
No change of venue is ever approved. No forced recusals from the cases due to a judge being compromised are happening.
No judge or prosecutor is ever censured or admonished for inappropriate public remarks.
It often sounds as though we’re discussing events from a another country, someplace other than the United States.
While he can file the evidence, someone has to present it and explain it. That’s Trump. He won’t open himself to a perjury charge or cross examination. He won’t open himself to previously excluded evidence by talking about it and thus opening the door to cross.
