Then-President Donald Trump personally pressured two Republican members of the Wayne County Board of Canvassers not to sign the certification of the 2020 presidential election, according to recordings reviewed by The Detroit News and revealed publicly for the first time.
On a Nov. 17, 2020, phone call, which also involved Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, Trump told Monica Palmer and William Hartmann, the two GOP Wayne County canvassers, they’d look “terrible” if they signed the documents after they first voted in opposition and then later in the same meeting voted to approve certification of the county’s election results, according to the recordings.
“We’ve got to fight for our country,” said Trump on the recordings, made by a person who was present for the call with Palmer and Hartmann. “We can’t let these people take our country away from us.”
McDaniel, a Michigan native and the leader of the Republican Party nationally, said at another point in the call, “If you can go home tonight, do not sign it. … We will get you attorneys.”
Oh, they can idict Mc Daniel too, lol.
Damn the Republican party seems to be filled to the brim with criminals, don’t it?
There are two overlapping circles: criminals & grifters.
Alright Ronna, you’ve been facing MAGA pressure for your ouster the past few months, here’s your chance to do the right thing (hell of an ask for a Republican) / get payback
it’s a prerequisite that you be a racist to be a republican, the criminality is a free dlc add on
