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.

    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)

        I agree. That’s why I didn’t say “same” or “equal”. I said both are bad. I said that because it’s true. I even emphacized that one is worse when you seemed to be having trouble with that relatively simple concept. Is English not your first language?

            I haven’t backpedaled. I have consistently said the same, accurate and provable, thing. And you have continued to read into it things which are not there and strawman a lot, because you are a child.

                  Lol whata sore loser. Did the fallacy works, or you are just an idiot? Don’t have to respond, is a rhetorical question
