'There's a recording': Internet explodes over audio showing Trump's 2020 pressure campaign

Raw Story  

Donald Trump on Thursday was accused of having "personally pressured" at least two Republicans to unlawfully block the 2020 election results, and social media is exploding with comments on the audio recording. "We still don't know what exactly happened in this unusual meeting -- in which Trump summoned Michigan GOP leaders to the Oval as he sought to subvert the will of the people," she added. Another Georgia analyst, law professor Anthony Michael Kreis, said the recording is "potentially important for the Georgia case where fellow call participant Ronna McDaniel is on Fani Willis' witness list." MSNBC legal analyst Lisa Rubin said the "craziest" part of the newly publicized phone call is "how his language mirrors what he said on 1/6/21."
