He hung a neighbor boy out of the upstairs window just to hear him scream, cry, and beg. That was what Donald Trump did for entertainment as a teenager. When he was a little boy, Donald Trump’s father enjoyed watching him fight. It was the former president’s temperament even then. He never lost until 2020, and we are just beginning to unearth the many ways. that Donald Trump tried to “win” the election.

The worst epitaph in the Trump family was “loser.” And the ex-president is the biggest loser on the world stage. In comparison to President Joe Biden, he fails to even rise to the current president’s shoelaces.

Tuesday, newly released documents showed that Trump’s former chief of staff Mark Meadows and his friends pressured his Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate voter fraud during the last moments of 2020 and his remaining days in 2021.

The documents the Oversight Committee received and released showed how 45 tried to get the DOJ to do his will. One of his ploys has been a carrot aka the promotion. The Attorney General at the time, William Barr, stepped down. And in that narrow window, Deputy Attorney General (AG) Jeffrey Rosen stepped into the role of acting AG. Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General Richard Donoghue would soon be the new AG.

Forty minutes prior to Trump announcing Barr’s resignation, Rosen received an email with a subject line that read an attention-getting “From POTUS.” In it, Trump cried voter fraud in Antrim County, Michigan.

In the latest document dump to the Oversight Committee, its members found proof that the ex-president utilized his White House and a private attorney to try to manipulate the DOJ into filing a lawsuit before the Supreme Court. If filed and won, Trump would exclude the Electoral College votes in six states.

Then, the ex-POTUS would call for a special election to elect him again. To his credit, Rosenstein refused.

This was not Mark Meadows’ first rodeo. Trump had him go to the DOJ at least five times calling election foul.

Committee on Oversight and Reform Chair Representative Carolyn Maloney (D-NY) released a statement that read:

‘These documents show that President Trump tried to corrupt our nation’s chief law enforcement agency in a brazen attempt to overturn an election that he lost.’

‘Those who aided or witnessed President Trump’s unlawful actions must answer the Committee’s questions about this attempted subversion of democracy. My Committee is committed to ensuring that the events leading to the violent January 6 insurrection are fully investigated.’

After the committee formally reqfuested the documents from the DOJ, it released them to The Times. They were about the ex-president’s attempts to send his weaponized supporters to the Capitol Building on January 6 in a failed slow-motion coup.
