The fact that the Donald trump He did not accept his electoral defeat is known. His legal team exhausted every opportunity provided by the law to challenge the result. This effort proved futile. Its dominance Joe biden it was confirmed every time. And each time the distance between them widened.

However, a new revelation goes further “resistanceWhich is still projected by the outgoing president and exposes him and his staff to the White House. Two different networks refer to a meeting that took place last Friday in White House -three days before- in which even the the possibility of a hit. More specifically, it was put on the table whether martial law could be imposed to prevent a smooth transition from power to the Democrats. In a Twitter post, Trump denied the news, citing another example of fake news and bad journalism.

Of particular interest, however, are the details surrounding this news.. Michael Flynn reportedly was also present at this meeting. He is a former national security adviser to the United States. Although he has pleaded guilty to fraud against the FBI during investigations into Russia in the 2016 presidential election, Trump pardoned him. A month earlier, the president himself had announced: “It is a great honor for me to inform you that General Michael Flynn has been fully released. Congratulations to General Flynn and his wonderful family, I know you will now have a truly wonderful Thanksgiving.”

It’s no secret that Flynn was a supporter of a possible coup. He had expressed it publicly, claiming that Trump “You must take the army to the streets”. What was not known until now, however, is that Trump heard in detail his proposal and its alleged implementation in the White House. At least that’s what both the New York Times and CNN claim. In particular, the New York Times correspondent reported that the president and his closest associates discussed Flynn’s idea in detail, which they rejected. According to the report, Trump has expressed his desire to appoint legal counsel Sidney Powell to the forefront of the voter fraud investigation. This is a well-known conservative conspiracy theorist, who has publicly argued that Biden he won the elections with the help of the communists and the late Hugo Chávez. The same report reflects the discomfort of some of Trump’s former associates who see the outgoing president taking extreme views and slipping down particularly dark paths.
