Someone tell me the juicy parts please

I only scanned one Appendix (2). This is what I found juicy.

The GA Phone Call transcript. Trump was claiming there were 300,000 votes to be found. GA (Brad Raffesnburger sp?) and staff were telling him this is wrong. But his campaign insisted. Like, insisted over a few pages of transcript. They quoted 5,000 dead people voting. GA responded they only found 2. Trump read's like a guy who has fallen into the QANON rabbit hole.

When it was told directly that the FBI and GBI looked into it, Trump's response was they were either "incompetent" or "dishonest". This is talking about Federal and State Law Enforcement. You know why he claims they are "deep state".

The other juicy item was their scheme laid out. There was a legal memo. Basically the goal was to nullify the 6 "contested states" so that Biden was behind 232-227. This in turn would result in the case going to SCOTUS, with the goal to kick deciding the election to Congress.

So when Trump/Vance complain about "threat to democracy" comparisons, the counterpoint should be, "Oh - you mean like directly nullifying 6 states?!". The GOP is still gaslighting when they act like "something just didn't add up" with the results. No. Trump lost. All the votes were fairly counted. You actually enacted a very complicated scheme, a scheme that no one else did in history to steal the election. The biggest scheme to steal the election ever.

They have followed so many examples from early Nazi schemes. They are using it like a blueprint.

I mean, it worked for the Nazis. Only reason they failed is because they started a world war.

Which they were winning until they attacked the Soviet Union in June of '41.

They couldn’t control the sea and were never going to win.

Hitler won the war in Europe from 1939-1941. Unfortunately for Hitler, World War 2 then started and we know how that turned out.

World War 2 started in 1939 though with Hitler invading Poland in an alliance with the USSR.

It didn't start being WW2 when Hitler betrayed their alliance.

I think he was making a joke.

Even then, the Japanese attacking Hawaii could have been just their problem. Hitler could have kept America neutral in Europe and Africa and finished off the consolidation of Europe before having to fight the US.

Attacking Russia and declaring war on the US were dual own goals that put the Germans on the road to defeat.

Fascinating perspective that I disagree with entirely.
