Can we trust Raffensperger

[choie]

to tell the truth tomorrow, without bowing to the Magas he has to win over to be re-elected?

[Walleye]

1. Has he already given a deposition?

[LoisB]

9. He met privately with the committee. Don't know if he was under oath.

[Samrob]

2. I do not trust him. nt

[alphafemale]

3. He was just re-elected in a landslide

So there's that.

[choie]

8. was that the primary

or the general election?

[choie]

12. it was the rethug primary

n/t

[alphafemale]

16. I think he proved his integrity when he not only refused the slime mold's bidding

But went public.

[PJMcK]

11. I think that as a primary, not a general (n/t)

[JI7]

4. I think he will tell the truth but won't be as forthcoming

as he should. Similar to Mike Pence.

[LoisB]

5. I don't think he has much choice, we all heard it. He may try to spin it to put TDFG in a better

light but he can't very well say, "TDFG never asked me to find 11,780 votes".

6. He'll be under oath and he's not stupid.

7. I think he already gave his statement to the J6C.

However, do I trust him? No. He’s a repuke. He already said he’d vote for TFG if he ran again.

[PJMcK]

10. He recorded the phone call from Trump!

How could he lie?

Raffensperger and his family have been threatened because he stood up for the truth. Even though he's a Republican, he'll be a powerful witness. Remember that the witnesses have been Republicans. This is to preemptively counter the charge that the committee is a partisan attack.

Besides, the committee wouldn't put him on TV if hey had any doubt he'd mess around.

[emulatorloo]

13. +1

[choie]

15. he's admitted that he'd vote

for trump again, so I can imagine him making some kind of excuses for him.

[PJMcK]

17. Once again, the committee knows exactly how he's going to testify

Like any smart "prosecution," the committee won't ask questions they don't already know the answers to. Because Raffensperger has already testified, he won't contradict his previous testimony under penalty of perjury. He has a future so he won't mess it up.

Why are you so skeptical when so many Republicans have already testified to Trump's crimes? Barr's testimony was as harsh as it could get yet he said he would still vote for Trump if he were the Republican nominee. Barr told the truth on both accounts but they don't nullify one another.

Anyway, let's see what happens tomorrow. Have a good night, chole.

[Bleacher Creature]

14. Tomorrow? Yes. Any other time? No. NT

18. I really don't know. Let's see what happens.-n/t
