Professor Eastman laid out a series of options that we discussed with Vice President Pence. Vice President Pence disagreed on certain issues but ultimately what President Trump said is, let’s go with option the, let’s just halt, let’s just pause the voting to allow the state legislatures to take one last look and make a determination as to whether the elections were handled fairly.

    I’m trying to find the 4D chess gambit here, but drawing a blank. Several sources are saying that it is a loosing strategy for someone like Trump. One of the 5 or 6 lawyers he looks to be throw8ng under the bus may flip, then it’s all over for him.

        None of the co-conspirators have been indicted. That’s the part of the strategy everyone is talking about.

          oh, wait… I guess I misread that part of Trump’s indictment…

          you have to admit, this whole this is pretty… baroque in its complexity. pardon me for tripping over a few of the details!
