He belongs in prison!
Trump asked top Justice Department officials to declare 2020 election 'corrupt,' notes show
The House Oversight Committee on Friday released the notes from a Trump phone call in December.
Trump pressed top Justice Department officials in a late December phone call to declare the election he lost “corrupt,” and “leave the rest” to him and Republican allies in Congress, according to contemporaneous, handwritten notes taken by officials on the call.
Trump pressured top Justice Department officials on a Dec. 27 phone call with then-Deputy Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen and his second-in-command, Richard Donoghue, part of an effort to reverse Joe Biden's win.
Donoghue memorialized the conversation in the handwritten notes, which the House Oversight Committee made public on Friday. The committee is investigating Trump's efforts to push false claims about the election in a bid to overturn the results and remain in office.
In response to Rosen saying the Justice Department "can't" and "won't snap its fingers" to change the outcome of an election, Trump is quoted in the notes as saying: "Don’t expect you to do that, just say that the election was corrupt" and "leave the rest to me and the R. Congressmen."
