Guardian: Hours before the deadly attack on the US Capitol this year, disgraced former president Donald Trump made several calls from the White House to top lieutenants at the Willard hotel in Washington and talked about ways to stop the certification of Joe Biden’s election win from taking place on 6 January.
The former president first told the lieutenants his vice-president, Mike Pence, was reluctant to go along with the plan to commandeer his largely ceremonial role at the joint session of Congress in a way that would allow Trump to retain the presidency for a second term.
But as Trump relayed to them the situation with Pence, he pressed his lieutenants about how to stop Biden’s certification from taking place on 6 January, and delay the certification process to get alternate slates of electors for Trump sent to Congress.
The former president’s remarks came as part of strategy discussions he had from the White House with the lieutenants at the Willard – a team led by Trump lawyers Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, Boris Epshteyn and Trump strategist Steve Bannon – about delaying the certification.
Trump’s remarks reveal a direct line from the White House and the command center at the Willard. The conversations also show Trump’s thoughts appear to be in line with the motivations of the pro-Trump mob that carried out the Capitol attack and halted Biden’s certification, until it was later ratified by Congress.

This is too funny. First, it’s highly unlikely Trump could plan anything more than when to change his Depends and even that is questionable. 1/6 smacks of BLM/WTO and other riots instigated/led by professionals whose only goals are confusion/confrontation/destruction and getting paid. Even Trump, being the lump of stupid that he is, would know such would never fly and if he did make such calls, it was for the show’s sake. Trump is good at one thing, the Con. He’s played his part in F’ing America and as long as he can keep suckering in the cash cows, he’s happy. The only losers in this piece of legerdemain is us, the suckers that keep buying all of it.
1/6 smacks of street theater, zman. It’s just like the brownshirts duking it out with the commies in 1933, only this time the “Reichstag fire” will be the next Israeli false-flag attack on the USA that will throw the whole world into chaos and make whatever becomes of Trump the least of our concerns.
This speaks as much to the inadequacy of the 25th Amendment and its implementation, that this criminal reprobate human excrement, Trump, was allowed to even go this far.
Mr. Trump, we know you don’t smoke cigarettes, but would you like a blindfold?
Political b.s., lies, cheating…..maybe this is why folks don’t vote and dont give a damn
Seriously?
Trump couldn’t be involved in the planning of the Jan.6 “insurrection!” No way!
The only way to find out who’s behind it, is to determine who benefits?
couldn’t be involved in the planning because he is too much dumb to can plan anything ???
