Trump Call to Georgia Official Violates State and Federal Law

[Into the Night]

He's soliciting a biased result
- "find" without a specific source means "generate"
- making threats not over a specific mistake, but over lack of outcome

He is not soliciting anything. He is pointing out the level of fraud.

White House planning to refer Brad Raffensperger WaPo leak to Secret Service for investigation under national security grounds of the Espionage Act

And they should.

 

[Into the Night]

you are literally the dumbest moron on the planet. There is no such law in GA. Pats little febble brained moron on the head....go play in traffic like a good thumb sucker

There IS such a federal law though.

 

[Into the Night]

Arrogant Trump believes that the law applies to other people, but not him.

Trump has broken no law. YAVC.

 

[Into the Night]

Tell it to the judge. Speaks volumes that you are here supporting Trumps attempted coup. You are a traitor. No need to sugar coat it. You care more about Trump than you do about your country.

The Constitution is not treason, dumbass. YAVC. This is an attempted Democrat coup. Trump is simply trying to stop it.

 

[Into the Night]

LOL at you. There were no national security issues discussed on the call, and it was perfectly legal for him to record that call and to provide it to the press. Why are you a traitor?

No, it is not perfectly legal. See the 4th amendment, and the current laws concerning the recording of telephone conversations in both the federal government and in the State of Georgia.

Wapo is owned by Bezos, the wealthiest human on the planet and an American success story whose business model has prevented everyone from getting covid.

The Republican Times is run by a cult whose founder claims he is the messiah.

Note the distinction.

Bezos has not prevented anyone from getting covid19. The Washington Compost is still the Washington Compost. It doesn't matter if Bezos owns it.

Especially since Trump had already publicly mischaracterized its content in a tweet rage.

Inversion fallacy. It is YOU that is mischaracterizing its content, not Trump.

 

[Into the Night]

No democratic jury would acquit on this, and there will be republicans who will not acquit either.

Acquit what? YAVC.

Why do you hate your country? Why do you think it's okay for the President to threaten an election official and ask that he manufacture votes? Can you explain that one?

He didn't tell an election official to manufacture votes. Yes, it is okay for a President to threaten an election official, particularly one that has committed election fraud, like the Secretary of State of Georgia has done.

Mark Meadows was with him on it. The notion that two months after the election and many weeks after a recount of that election there remains many thousands of uncounted ballots is obviously ridiculous.

Nope. Not ridiculous at all.

The call can only be understood as an attempt to coerce election fraud,

Nope. Election fraud already happened. The Secretary of State of Georgia and the Governor of Georgia have committed election fraud.

the very thing Trump accuses others of.

And he accused them specifically of it in this phone call.

Maybe a few weeks from now the Biden Administration's justice department will seek a couple of well deserved indictments.

For what? YAVC. Biden has to win first.

 

[Into the Night]

Nothing illegal about it. One party recording is legal.

Fool

Nope. See the telephone recording laws and the 4th amendment.

 

[katzgar]

There IS such a federal law though.

Your assertion that the governor of Georgia is federal is incorrect

 

[Into the Night]

Yes, I didn't get as far as Title 21 of that Georgia code. It's more on point. In fact it is precisely on point.

Argument by repetition fallacy. Inversion fallacy. The Secretary of State of Georgia and the Governor of Georgia are who need to be prosecuted under these laws.

 

[Into the Night]

Hell, I don't ever want a candidate calling any election official period. Not even to talk about fishing.
Much less to pressure a result. These tards like Omar need smelling salts and a slap on the face
to pull them out it. It being a cult.

There is nothing illegal about calling an election official.

Bullshit, competent prosecutors understand mob speak and mob pressure tactics all day long and prosecute them every ding dong day. Would a criminal defense attorney use vagueness and equivocation and lexical ambiguity to try and get Trump off? (again). Fuck yes. But the case is as strong.

[FONT="]The question, according to Justin Levitt, a law professor at Loyola Marymount University, is whether Trump was “knowingly and willfully” pressuring Raffensperger to count nonexistent votes when he told the GOP official, “I just want to find 11,780 votes.”[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#333333][FONT="]In other words: Does Trump actually believe that 11,780 ballots in his favor were cast but not counted?[/FONT]
[FONT="]Considering that two recounts, an audit and several judges have upheld President-elect Joe Biden’s win in Georgia, Levitt said it is clear Trump was not pushing for an “honest tally” of the votes.[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#333333][FONT="]“Either the president was engaged in the commission of a felony,” he said, “or he has lost his hold on reality such that he can no longer distinguish fact from the fictions he has been fed.”[/FONT]
[FONT="]Michael R. Bromwich, a former Justice Department inspector general, put it more bluntly

: “His best defense would be insanity.”[/FONT]

Biden has not won in Georgia. Georgia has filed Contested.

 

[Into the Night]

Nope the only sensible comment you made of all of them you made is whether kicking Trumps ass one more time on the way out the door
or afterwards is a sensible allocation of time effort and political capital. He is as guilty here as he was with Ukraine. And that is 100%
guilty with 8 or so career unimpeachable and unopposed witnesses lined up.

Your cowardly treasonous senate's jury nullification tactics didn't alter the strength of that case at all. I listened to the entire
call on this one. Guilty.

Neither call is a crime. YAVC.

 

[Into the Night]

No, January 20th. Then you can finally stop apologizing for a known criminal.
But you'll get a new one who shares your values of hypocrisy, criminality, treason, authoritarianism
fascism, mendacity, Luddism and ineptitude.


How do I get into the minds of Republicans so well? "I start with a Democrat and take away reason and accountability." Jack Nicholson.

YAVC. Trump has committed no crime.

 

[Into the Night]

This is what? The bridge too far for the Trump cult? Nope. That bridge doesn't exist. If Trump were Hitler, you would have a defense for the gas chambers. And you would ignore the reality and think the whole thing was cute and funny. That's what you've become. Aren't you proud?

The rest of us are aware that Trump has committed multiple felonies in the service of maintaining power. Hopefully he will wind up in jail. I think he will.

YAVC. Inversion fallacy.

Go back to your safe space threads, dog.

Inversion fallacy.
