His lawyers KNEW and wrote a internal memo declaring that his elections accusations where FALSE two weeks after the election and before lawyers around the country would waste time and money trying to unsuccessfully sell Trump’s lies….
This has come to light in the discovery phase of a lawsuit by a voting company against Trump who pointed to them as working against him….
Two weeks after the 2020 election, a team of lawyers closely allied with Donald J. Trump held a widely watched news conference at the Republican Party’s headquarters in Washington. At the event, they laid out a bizarre conspiracy theory claiming that a voting machine company had worked with an election software firm, the financier George Soros and Venezuela to steal the presidential contest from Mr. Trump.
But there was a problem for the Trump team, according to court documents released on Monday evening.
By the time the news conference occurred on Nov. 19, Mr. Trump’s campaign had already prepared an internal memo on many of the outlandish claims about the company, Dominion Voting Systems, and the separate software company, Smartmatic. The memo had determined that those allegations were untrue.
The court papers, which were initially filed late last week as a motion in a defamation lawsuit brought against the campaign and others by a former Dominion employee, Eric Coomer, contain evidence that officials in the Trump campaign were aware early on that many of the claims against the companies were baseless.
The documents also suggest that the campaign sat on its findings about Dominion even as Sidney Powell and other lawyers attacked the company in the conservative media and ultimately filed four federal lawsuits accusing it of a vast conspiracy to rig the election against Mr. Trump.
According to emails contained in the documents, Zach Parkinson, then the campaign’s deputy director of communications, reached out to subordinates on Nov. 13 asking them to “substantiate or debunk” several matters concerning Dominion. The next day, the emails show, Mr. Parkinson received a copy of a memo cobbled together by his staff from what largely appear to be news articles and public fact-checking services.
Even though the memo was hastily assembled, it rebutted a series of allegations that Ms. Powell and others were making in public….
Note…
Add this case to the growing numbers of cases featuring Donald Trump and his web of lies or possible illegal actions….
I think everyone already knew this.
Just confirms that Trump and most of the Republican Party are
Liars, Cheats and Thieves
Meanwhile Michael Flynn–Trump’s National Security Advisor for 18 days thinks the COVID vaccine is being added to salad dressing.
This guy has been talked about as a potential Trump running mate if he runs again.
Sounds about right.
The guy was a military officer!
