Memo reveals Trump lawyer’s six-step plan for Mike Pence to overturn the election on January 6

Washington A conservative lawyer working with then-President Donald Trump's legal team tried to convince then-Vice President Mike Pence that he could overturn the election results on January 6 when Congress counted the Electoral College votes by throwing out electors from seven states, according to the new book"Peril" from Washington Post journalists Bob Woodward and Robert Costa.

The scheme put forward by controversial lawyer John Eastman was outlined in a two-page memo obtained by the authors for"Peril," and which was subsequently obtained by CNN. The memo, which has not previously been made public, provides new detail showing how Trump and his team tried to persuade Pence to subvert the Constitution and throw out the election results on January 6.

Deplorable Trump

That is enough proof to send him to jail for life😡😡

Shameful,corrupt and disgraceful!! They should each step down and don’t stop til they get to “jail”!

JoanieReb So, incredibly, thank goodness for Dan Quayle, I guess.

Donald tramb some one dog🐶

JeriLRyan That doesn’t mean that Pence was a Boy Scout. Woodward’s new book shows that Pence was actively looking for a way to do exactly what Trump wanted.

😂😂😂😂🙂

Democracy is fake and gay. We want Caesar! Give us Cesar! Imperium now!

Donald Trump

johnastoehr Explain to an Australian, who understands the American legal system very well, why trump is not behind bars?

Who cares about this? America is an absolute mess right now!

My opinion of Pence has improved slightly.

Trump supporters will forever be in denial no matter the evidence. If they couldn’t understand the fraud then, the still won’t see it now.

Needs to be disbarred

Nothing will happen. All the memos and he will continue to walk freely.

Rat

John Eastman needs punished. Disbarred or something. He wrote the recipe for a coup. This is sedition or treason.

Why are to posting about Trump? Biden is your man, he's the one SCREWING UP the WHOLE WORLD.

Really ?

Hopefully the CIA would have stepped in and “rectified” the situation

Thank you for showing our beloved real PREZ Trump again!!! Best economy EVER

Pence already, told us, what trump tried to pull.

45: How Is He Not In Prison?

Oh...so the final impeachment was a LEGITIMATE necessity?

The irony of Trump supporters crying to 'stop the steal'.

How nice! Aha, hmmm, aha....great patriots! Send them to Russia

It shows D. TRUMP, Believed he had ULTIMATE POWER to OVERTURN the WILL OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. It shows that over 4 yrs, D. TRUMP was given CARTE BLANCHE to do whatever he wanted with no REPERCUSSIONS, DUE TO HIS PRESIDENCY. DOJ, SUPREME COURT AND THE RP WERE COMPLICIT ON JAN 6.

Interesting, cnn obtained the memo but you can’t show us? More fakenews
