‘Former Trump chief of staff had presentation with plans for coup’ | Abroad

The PowerPoint stated, among other things, that Trump could declare a national emergency in order to stay in power longer. That should happen after it was alleged that China had access to the electronic voting systems. The electronic votes would then all have to be declared invalid and a solution would have to be sought by parliament.

The document also contains a few points that former Vice President Mike Pence could have used to prevent Joe Biden from being declared the new president in parliament on January 6. That way he could have appointed more Trump supporters as electoral votes.

Trump and close allies such as Meadows, Rudy Giuliani and Steve Bannon are said to have worked hard until January 6 to find a solution that would keep Trump in power in the United States. On January 6, Trump supporters finally stormed the Capitol in an attempt to prevent the election results from being officially approved. It did not work.

Meadows promised to cooperate with the parliamentary committee on the storming of the Capitol in late November, but he withdrew that cooperation on Wednesday. He is now likely to be prosecuted for his refusal.
