Trump's recorded attempt to extort Georgia's Republican Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger into falsifying his state's vote totals isn’t a Watergate Smoking Gun; it’s a Trump Smoking Flamethrower. This makes Watergate look like a gray area of what-did-the-president-know-and-when-did-he-know it. He's broken all the laws Nixon did, and in just one hour. He's violated Election Fraud laws on the national and state level. He's involved in a criminal conspiracy. He's trying to nullify an election. And he's broken his oath to the Constitution. IN ONE HOUR. ON TAPE.

The time has come: the House won't impeach and the Senate wouldn't convict. We need Presidents Bush, Carter, Clinton and Obama to make a joint statement condemning Trump, and his attempted coup, and the attempted coup by his toadies in the Senate and House like Ted Cruz, Jim Jordan, Kevin McCarthy, Ron Johnson and the rest of the sedition caucus. And we need President-Elect Biden to confirm he will prosecute him. All possible pressure must be brought on Trump to resign immediately.

Watch my first political commentaries since The Resistance in this newest episode of my new series on Trump and the 2020 election: Olbermann Vs. Trump (or if the spelling overwhelms you, Olberman Oberman Oblerman Obermann and of course Kieth). The countdown, so to speak, is over! You know: the countdown with Keith Olbermann ;-)
