T his indictment serves as a reminder that no one is above the law, even those in positions of power.
The evidence against Trump includes recorded phone calls where he pressured Georgia officials to “find enough votes” to overturn the election results.
“All I want to do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have because we won the state.
“So what are we going to do here, folks? I only need 11,000 votes. Fellas, I need 11,000 votes. Give me a break.”
— Donald Trump
