In a federal court filing, Donald Trump’s lawyers argued that he had a “good faith” basis to question the 2020 election results and demanded evidence related to voting irregularities and potential foreign interference.
They suggested that Trump was justified in his skepticism and sought information on foreign influence, election infrastructure compromises, and potential political bias.
The filing aims to sow doubt about the election’s legitimacy and challenges the prosecution’s findings. (Trending: Greta Thunberg Caught on Video Going Full Anti-Semite)
“It was not unreasonable at the time, and certainly not criminal, for President Trump to disagree with officials now favored by the prosecution and to rely instead on the independent judgment that the American people elected him to use while leading the country,” wrote Trump’s lawyers.
“The Office cannot blame President Trump for public discord and distrust of the 2020 election results while refusing to turn over evidence that foreign actors stoked the very same flames that the Office identifies as inculpatory in the indictment,” insisted the former president’s attorneys.
“The Office cannot rely on selected guidance and judgments by officials it favors from the Intelligence Community and law enforcement while ignoring evidence of political bias in those officials’ decision-making as well as cyberattacks and other interference, both actual and attempted, that targeted critical infrastructure and election facilities before, during, and after the 2020 election,” continued the court motion.
Trump’s legal team also seeks documents related to the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot.
