WHAT TRUMP HAS TO FEAR FROM THE MICHIGAN TAPE

Two conservative lawyers say the recording creates significant new legal
exposure for the former president.



The Michigan recording — in which Donald Trump tells two GOP canvassers to
“fight for our country” and Ronna McDaniel promises legal assistance — tells a
more sinister story, said former federal judge J. Michael Luttig. | Charlie

A newly unearthed recording of Donald Trump and Ronna McDaniel pressuring two
county officials in Michigan not to certify the 2020 election could be the very
definition of shocking but not surprising news.

On one hand, the fact that Trump and McDaniel called Monica Palmer and William
Hartmann, the two GOP canvassers in Wayne County, has been known for some time
and is included in the House Jan. 6 committee’s report.



Furthermore, Americans have already heard audio of Trump pressuring elections
officials in another jurisdiction, and those efforts are already a core part of
Jack Smith’s election subversion case in Washington.



But several prominent lawyers say the Nov. 17, 2020, phone call — revealed in
detail Thursday by the Detroit News — presents new and significant legal peril
to the former president and current GOP frontrunner, even if the political
ramifications are already baked in to the 2024 presidential race.

From Election Night to Jan. 6: A plot grows within Trump’s W.H.

Andrew Weissmann, a former DOJ prosecutor, suggested on X last night that the
recording could open the door to a federal bribery charge: “Trump and Ronna
McDaniel — Offering a thing of value to a public official to violate oath of
office = a crime.”

Others see new fuel to power Smith’s election subversion case as well as
something that Georgia prosecutors might use to bolster their own case against
Trump.

Smith’s August indictment includes more than two pages of narrative about
Trump’s machinations in Michigan. But the events of Nov. 17 are not included in
the litany of facts therein.

It may be that what Smith knew about the November call was too ambiguous to use
as evidence. Palmer has described the call far more innocently than the new
tapes reveal. As the Detroit News points out, Palmer previously characterized
the call as, “Thank you for your service. I’m glad you’re safe. Have a good
night.”

The tape — in which Trump tells the canvassers to “fight for our country” and
McDaniel promises legal assistance — instead tells a more sinister story, said
former federal judge J. Michael Luttig.

“This new evidence is of a piece with, and bolsters, the considerable other
similar evidence of the former president’s interference in the 2020 presidential
election that both Jack Smith and Fani Willis have assembled,” he said,
referring to the state prosecutor who has charged Trump and associates in Fulton
County, Georgia. “The president was not acting in furtherance of his duty to
take care that the laws be faithfully executed when he attempted to interfere in
the presidential election in Michigan and elsewhere.”




Ty Cobb, who once served as Trump’s lawyer and whose views on the 14th Amendment
the Trump campaign has recently highlighted, said he saw the recordings as
“likely a violation” of the federal honest services fraud statute.

“Also, shows the depths to which Trump personally participated in fraudulently
pimping the ‘Big Lie,’” Cobb said. “McDaniel is equally exposed. Clearly,
evidence going to the core conspiracies charged by the special prosecutor.”

He added that Smith might already have so much evidence that he doesn’t need the
Michigan call to bolster his case.

“Often,” he pointed out, “the narrative is pared down to the most persuasive
evidence desired by the prosecutor and not all evidence is utilized in order to
present the strongest case and avoid distracting tangents.”

However, Michigan officials have been pursuing their own investigations, and
Cobb noted it “could be separately charged” in the state, the same way Trump’s
actions in Georgia are both part of the larger federal case and Willis’ case in
Georgia.

But for every seemingly damning piece of evidence in a criminal case, there’s a
defense attorney who can explain it away.

Timothy Parlatore, who previously served on the former president’s criminal
defense team, said he wasn’t impressed with what has been reported about the new
tapes.

“Seems selective,” he said. “I’d like to hear the entire tape. Much like the
Georgia call, an individual sentence without context can seem misleadingly
incriminating, but context matters. The promise to get them lawyers does seem
like this was part of a legal process.”

He added, “Ronna’s comment makes sense. If they were asking for a
pre-certification audit, I don’t see anything incriminating about that. Better
to ensure accuracy pre-certification than to try to do it after the fact.”
