Two days before the January 6 insurrection, the Trump campaign’s plan to use fake electors to block President-elect Joe Biden from taking office faced a potentially crippling hiccup: The fake elector certificates from two critical battleground states were stuck in the mail.

So, Trump campaign operatives scrambled to fly copies of the phony certificates from Michigan and Wisconsin to the nation’s capital, relying on a haphazard chain of couriers, as well as help from two Republicans in Congress, to try to get the documents to then-Vice President Mike Pence while he presided over the Electoral College certification.

The operatives even considered chartering a jet to ensure the files reached Washington, DC, in time for the January 6, 2021, proceeding, according to emails and recordings obtained by CNN.

The new details provide a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the chaotic last-minute effort to keep Donald Trump in office. The fake electors scheme features prominently in special counsel Jack Smith’s criminal indictment against the former president, and some of the officials who were involved have spoken to Smith’s investigators.

      They are both terrible. This isn’t a Disney movie, the world isn’t either good or bad. Someone can be bad even if someone else is worse.

        Lol, but you are implying that they are equally bad, and I still not seeing the democrats trying to remove the rights of women or minorities.

        Or even worse, try to put a traitor in the bailouts of the presidency. When thst happens, let me know.

              I didn’t falsely accuse you of saying both sides are the same. I’m under no obligation to provide evidence to support claims I didn’t make. If you want evidence that you’re a fucking moron I can gladly quote your entire post history.

                Then what it is? Hypocrisy or what?

                  Losing your car keys is bad. The Holocaust was bad. By your definition, I guess that means those things are the same.

                  If you believe that “bad” and “the same” are synonyms maybe get a new dictionary.

                    No but saying that al capone is equal to a person who says no to you, is not equal.

                    You wete the one with the mental gymnastics to say that they are bad, but in reality one is bad and the other is way way worse (conservatives)
