From trump's opening lines, very first remarks, in the 1-hour call is this

"We won very substantially in Georgia. You even see it by rally size, frankly. We’d be getting 25-30,000 people a rally, and the competition would get less than 100 people. And it never made sense."

Lol.
"You know, every single state, we won every state. We won every statehouse in the country. We held the Senate, which is shocking to people," Trump says on the call, not realizing how much this undermines his own argument of rigging by the Dems.
It's kinda astonishing just how many times Trump does his 'people are saying' 'people tell me' BS routine to Raffensperger on the call. Someone who
s been in as many court cases, on both sides, as Trump still doesn't get his unnamed 'people say' literally has no value whatsoever?
"You know the Internet? You know what was trending on the Internet?" is a real sentence uttered by the president of the United States in a conversation with a top state election official.
Imagine being Raffensperger - because of Trump, you and your wife have received death threats simply for doing your job. And then you sit silently & listen to him droning on at you about internet conspiracy theories for an hour, and then just politely respond. I couldn't do it.
This Trump line from the audio will be part of his epitaph:

"Oh this isn’t social media. This is Trump media. It’s not social media."
Germany: We chose Cobb County because that was the only county where there’s been any evidence submitted that the signature verification was not properly done.

Trump: No, but I told you. We’re not, we’re not saying that.

Mitchell: We did say that.

😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Why don’t you want to find this, Ryan? What’s wrong with you? I heard your lawyer is very difficult, actually, but I’m sure you’re a good lawyer. You have a nice last name."

Trump to Raffensperger's lawyer, Mr Ryan *Germany*

So random. So Trump though.
"So what are we going to do here, folks? I only need 11,000 votes. Fellas, I need 11,000 votes. Give me a break"

Mob Boss/U.S. President Donald J. Trump on tape with the Georgia Secretary of State and his lawyer.
"We won the House," Trump declares to Raffensperger.

(The GOP did not in fact win the House. The president is deluded and/or dishonest.)
