''I just want to find 11,780 votes': Trump attacks Georgia officials as crucial runoffs approach.
In other words, "the people of Georgia cannot be counted on to vote
for me, so we need to take the choice away."
ATLANTA — Just two days before the Georgia runoffs that will determine the leadership
of the Senate and one day before a rally on behalf of the Republican candidates, President
Trump has continued to unload on the GOP officials leading the state.
In an extraordinary development, Trump attempted to cajole Republican Georgia Secretary
of State Brad Raffensperger, according to the Washington Post, which published audio
of their call on Sunday.
“So look. All I want to do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have,” Trump told Raffensperger, laying bare his overriding goal of overturning the November election.
President-elect Joe Biden won Georgia on Nov. 3, the first time the state had gone for a Democratic candidate since 1992. Despite three vote recounts, Trump has continued to insist that the voting was tainted, casting a wide range of allegations without any credible evidence to back up his assertions.
Trump continued to attack Raffensperger while addressing their call hours before the Post published the audio.“I spoke to Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger yesterday about Fulton County and voter fraud in Georgia,” Trump tweeted. “He was unwilling, or unable, to answer questions such as the ‘ballots under table’ scam, ballot destruction, out of state ‘voters,’ dead voters, and more. He has no clue!”
“Respectfully, President Trump,” Raffensperger replied on
Twitter, “What you're saying is not true. The truth will come out.”
RESPECT TRUMP? THAT'S AN OXYMORON.
