Sterling said, “The president’s legal team had the entire tape, they watched the entire tape, and from our point of view, intentionally misled the state’s senate, voters and the people of the United States about this. It was intentional. It was obvious. Anybody watching this knows that. Anyone watching it knows that. That’s why we released the entire tape for people to watch.”
Trump has tried 18 times to interfere and overturn the election results in Georgia. Trump was caught in a phone call committing election fraud, and his actions have been referred to the FBI for a criminal investigation.
There was no election fraud. Republicans are putting on a show in an effort to overturn a free and fair presidential election.
Trump’s coup plotters are attacking democracy, and Republican election officials in Georgia are pushing back.
