The former president of the United States donald trump (2017 – 2021) last week again pressured a Republican leader from the state of Wisconsin to change the 2020 election resultthat is, almost two years after the elections.
As the president of the Wisconsin State Assembly, the conservative Robin Vos, explained to a local television channel on Wednesday, Trump called him last week to pressure him to go back in the certification of the result of 2020 in that state, in which the current president, Joe Biden, won.
On July 8, the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled that most of the drop boxes the state uses for voting by mail are illegal, although the ruling has effect only for future electionsnot the past ones like the 2020 presidential one.
However, Trump interpreted that this decision gave him the reason in his interpretation that the certified result of the elections in Wisconsin it was illegitimate and that he, instead of Biden, should have been proclaimed the winner in that state.
The former president maintains that in the 2020 elections fraud was committed in several of the states in which he did not win, including Wisconsin and Georgiaa version that illegitimates Biden’s victory and that led to the assault on the Capitol on January 6, 2021.
This Thursday, the legislative committee investigating what happened that day will focus on what happened in the White House that day, in an attempt to show that Trump did nothing to stop the protest.
This new session of the committee, which will be broadcast during prime time, It will be the eighth and in principle the last of this series of public hearings, which began a month ago.
That January 6, some 10,000 people – most of them Trump supporters – marched towards the Capitol and some 800 broke into the building. There was five dead and close to 140 officers injured.
