Ex-Trump lawyer reveals efforts to keep Trump in White House after 2020 election

An attorney for Donald Trump, Jenna Ellis, revealed in an interview with the Georgia district attorney's office that one of Trump's top aides, Dan Scavino, told her in December 2020 that Trump was "not going to leave" the White House "under any circumstances" despite losing the election to Joe Biden. Ellis, who is cooperating as part of a plea agreement in the Georgia election interference case, also alluded to two other "relevant" instances but did not disclose them due to attorney-client privilege. The video recordings of Ellis and three other defendants' statements were published, providing evidence that Trump knew of a plot to cast fake ballots for him in states that Biden had legitimately won. Trump faces multiple criminal charges and civil lawsuits but continues to lead in polls for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024.
