A new Politico report has come to a dramatic conclusion after analyzing the initial legal maneuvering of multiple co-defendants in The State of Georgia v. Donald J. Trump, et al.
Namely, their apparent intention to throw the former president under the bus.
Attorneys for Mark Meadows strongly hinted at the strategy to save him from being convicted for allegedly trying to help former President Trump overturn Georgia's 2020 presidential election results.
The report cited courtroom transcripts where Meadow's lawyers implied that Trump was the primary instigator of the scheme.
As Politico reports:
During a hearing in Atlanta, a defense attorney for Meadows called attention to Trump's prominent role in what is certain to be a crucial element of prosecutors' case there: the infamous Jan. 2, 2021, phone call in which Trump demanded that Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, a Republican, “find” enough votes to declare Trump the winner.
Meadows arranged that pivotal call. But after prosecutors played audio of the call in the courtroom, an attorney for Meadows emphasized that his client's part in the actual discussion was both more minor and less provocative than Trump's.
“There's a lot of statements by Mr. Trump. Mr. Meadows' speaking roles were quite limited,” Meadows' lawyer, Michael Francisco, observed as he cross-examined Raffensperger, who was called to testify by prosecutors.
“He didn't make a request that you change the vote totals — Mr. Meadows, himself?” Francisco continued.
Raffensperger told Francisco, “correct.”
Citing court documents, the report noted that three co-defendants indicted as fake electors in the Georgia case claim they did so at Trump's request.

Flip on him for what, no crime was committed.
That is Meadows’ modus operandi aka MO. He has always been a person who changes his mind whenever he feels it is advantageous to himself. Ask the people of California. He reminds me more of a liberal, leftwing, socialist communist Democrat than even if a RINO. RiNO are that way since they just feel bad being called Republicans. Meadows is just a person who has never known what he is politically, socially, financially, personally, etc. His moral or immoral life (whichever you want to call it) demonstrates that. He can be, do, say, think, or support one thing almost in the morning and the total difference in the evening. To me, as a Born-again Christian, he is dangerous. The Bible uses the term “a double minded man.” Even God sats He hates or despises such a man. Even though I dislike RINOs I don’t think they are inherently dangerous. Meadows is as he never knows what he believes and just goes with what satisfies his egotistical Elitist temperament or wallet whichever he wants fed. Let’s see if this revised post will pass the censors at so-called American Liberty
Pathetic coward, Meadows. All about politics rather than the TRUTH. Turncoat.
Meadows has always been a very unstable man who changes his position whenever it comes to being a solid conservative. His brand of RINOism is more subtle than others, but in the long run much more dangerous. He would fit well as a socialist communist-Lite type of a person to avoid at all costs.
You lost me at Politico.
This site us run by communists. Thet remove any of my posts which they disagree about. I am very careful not to violate any of their standards and have even pointed out to them posts that they have allowed with profanity, vulgarity and to me, highly sexualized material which they must consider acceptable. As a Christian, I was appalled.
Two pis5s already removed which violated none if their standards. One of them pointed out that they have posted material which as a born-Christian was vulgar, foul, and profane. They aren’t consistent which is too bad.
Now thet accuse me of posting too quickly the same post. Wrong! I was correcting typing errors. They are too touchy. Hope they are not married
Where are tge two originals? One expects their kind in Iran, Cuba, North Korea, Communist Red China, Russia…but not in America! Maybe they need to change their name to “Totalitarian Dictatorship Rag”.
These people will split hell wide open when they die. They obviously are not looking forward to The Rapture of the Church which is The Bride of Christ or Saved Sinners. They must want the Tribulation. Satan will let them have it. I wonder if they will take The Mark if the Beast. Where are those two missing posts?
The writer of this post loves to spread misinformation. Could be angling for a position in the new left wing dystopia.
I am about as far right as you can get. Leftwing socialist communist Satanists I absolutely am not.
Find doesn’t mean manufacture like the crazicrats did.
Mark Meadows if you turn on Trump for this kind of garbage, you surely will regret it. When someone asks you to find enough votes to win that state, doesn’t mean he wanted Brad R to cheat to find them! Duh! It means go find out if the votes were real, if not find out how many? But because Brad R and Brian Kemp do not like Trump, and are Rino’s they in turn want him to go away.
The plot the plan, the conspiracy is very disturbing. Do the Rino’s truly think they have the candidate who can go up against harden politicians? No you don’t, but you want a puppet.
Well the Patriots want the Rino’s to join the Democratic Party where they belong, and let the big boys decide our fate, along with the True Patriots of this country!
