    Yeah there is a ton to see here in terms of desperation with no chance of success and only downside which is on tape. Unflattering would be an understatement.

    @Loki, you see or hear anything legally questionable or ethically concerning in there?

    Yup. Wasn’t sure if there was the potential for a crime but I also only read the snippet and didn’t see the entire conversation so I would wait for more context. Even so, it is at best inappropriate but worse, stupid.

      I'm so old that I remember when the press was outraged that private communication was leaked, it seems like, what, 10 weeks?

      "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        It's from the Washington Post, one of the most dishonest media outlets in the country, with a history of taking things out of context and spinning it to turn things into the worst possible thing they can. One has to be an utter fool to trust anything they read from them.

        What I hear is the president offering the Georgia Secretary of State the chance to do the right thing.

        And if you think there was no fraud in Georgia's election, youre nuts.

          It’s come to the point where we the people are not even shocked by these latest shenanigans. This man is performing acts of sedition trying to buy an election that he lost. His future is grim. Really grim. Teflon Don is running out of chits.

            It's all really quite telling, actually - if you Trump haters actually believed the shit you shovel you wouldn't feel such a need to keep trying to convince people that Biden won. Every one of the Trump haters have their asses puckered so tight they could crack walnuts in their ass hole, scared shitless that today might be the day their little "Biden won" bull shit falls apart.

                Yeah, he is an imbecile, and an avatar of those who came before him. I really don't think it's different. Maybe I'm a nihilist.

                  This is so mind boggling horrible, even for Trump’s standards. Normally this would be the political scandal of the decade of not century! But he has watered down the expectations of the office so much that this won’t really matter. Plus folks know he lost (by more than a landslide) so for many this is just one more scandal as he leaves.

                      Keep saying it and eventually you might come to believe it. No one else will, but if it makes your head feel better as it rests in your ass, that's ood.

                                  Aw, c'mon, 89th, don't exaggerate. This isn't the first time Trump has used the phone to pressure a higher-up to do his bidding. At least he didn't offer military aid to Georgia.

                                      After I listened to the full hour last night, one thing that struck me was everyone on the Secretary’s side of the call I think I understood the magnitude of the call from a historical and legal perspective, and were careful about what they would say, whereas everyone on Trump’s side of the call seemed to treat it like just another Saturday night casual call.

                                        You do realize that what you were hearing was negotiations in an attempt to settle a lawsuit, dont you? Perhaps it also escaped your attention that such conversations always involve back and forth negotiations, and are by law private and covered by attorney/client priviledge, and the real problem here is the crime committed by leaking it, which was done so the gullible sheep like you would jump in with your typical responses?

                                        Nah. None of that occurred to you because by God you know everything already.

                                          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
