When Donald Trump set about attacking Georgia governor and fellow Republican Brian Kemp this weekend for failing to fraudulently overturn Democrat Joe Biden s victory there, he may have inadvertently revealed more details of a scheme that could land him in prison.

That the former president tried to coerce Kemp into calling a special legislative session to give Trump the states electoral votes rather than Biden has been known publicly since shortly after their Dec. 5 phone call .

But Trump during his rally in Perry, Georgia, on Saturday twice stated that he had asked Kemp to call a special election a request that would mesh with some of his advisers recommendations to him to declare martial law in a handful of states he narrowly lost and to force them to hold new elections.

The criminal always returns to the scene of the crime, said Norm Eisen, who served as an ethics lawyer in the Barack Obama White House and more recently worked for the House committee overseeing Trumps first impeachment. He dug his grave a little deeper on Saturday.

Gwen Keyes Fleming, a former district attorney in Georgias DeKalb County, said Trumps comments will certainly raise eyebrows. I wouldnt be surprised if the Fulton County district attorney and her investigators arent watching very closely, she said.

Eisen and Fleming are among the authors of a recent Brookings Institution report detailing the various misdemeanors and felonies with which Georgia prosecutors could charge Trump for his attempts to overturn the election most famously in a recorded Jan. 2 phone call with Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger in which Trump told him to find the 11,780 votes he needed to surpass Biden in the presidential results.
