Former attorney for Donald Trump, John Eastman, reiterated his stance on the contested 2020 presidential election shortly after surrendering himself for arrest at a detention facility in the Atlanta area.
MSNBC reporter Ali Vitali engaged Eastman in a brief exchange moments after he faced charges for his alleged involvement in a conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia, along with Donald Trump and other associates.
“Do you still think the election was stolen?” Vitali inquired.
“Absolutely,” Eastman promptly responded, firm in his belief. “No question, no question at all.”
Despite this assertion, Eastman refrained from commenting on other specifics pertaining to his legal situation. Notably, he neither confirmed nor denied potential immunity from prosecution nor divulged whether he underwent the customary procedure of a mugshot during his arrest.

Shlomo Hamelech (after he was dethroned by ashmadi) kept on going around saying he’s king and the chachamim said “a crazy man doesn’t stick to one thing” the same applies here to trump
He can also declare that government is hiding alien spaceships and detaining Martians at Guantanimo but WHO CARES? We have too many homeless people wandering the streets with a wide range of mental disorders to worry about some wealthy right-wing lawyer who was fired from his law school and whose “legal theories” have been rejected by dozens of federal and state judges, including some of the most conservative.
Yup it was stolen. And it’s only getting more obvious. Twitter FBI, 51 intelligence agents, 70 million votes the most from any sitting president.Biden got 80 somehow?? Mail in ballots, days of counting, not requiring voter ID and who doesn’t want it? The left, why?
Also they keep claiming trump lost 50+ court cases that’s not the case. The courts said the allegations had no stance so they turned away the trials. Judges were scared to take on such a case that if true undermines the founding of America and democracy.
coffee, you’re definitely not wrong as there are many instances where that is true. However, there is another saying that can be another point of view. “Millions of flies eat dirt. Millions of flies can’t be wrong.”

you don’t make sense. If the election was stolen it was stolen what does that have to do with a crazy man doesn’t stick to one thing”? Until the Perdue vs Warnock election I also said the election was stolen But when Warnock won, I said yes there are crazy people out there and when Fetterman won in Pennsylvania my feelings were confirmed that the democrat party will vote for a democrat over a republican even if he’s the worse candidate. However, I do feel there the election was rigged. There was ballot harvesting and other shenanigans that so far can’t be proven.
Eastman is an eminent legal authority, and his legal opinions are by definition worthy of attention. His opinion on the Electoral Count Act is not obviously wrong, though i think it is flawed.
As for his opinion on whether the election was stolen, that’s not a legal opinion so he has no special expertise, but he had a front-row seat from which to witness it, and came to the same conclusion as the majority of Americans have. There is very good reason to suppose that the election was stolen, though proving it in court, to the standard required to reverse the result, and by the deadline for reversing it, proved much harder than some charlatans convinced Trump it was.
it was stolen open your eyes people
biden got 81m Lol, some people are like seriously nuts
Pls dont stoop so low by comparing Shlomo Hanelech to lehavdil this shmuck Trump.
Hes going down and sucking in eveyone. A typical political quicksand.
A perfect example of an egomaniacal dictator.
Yeshivaguy,
BH people have seichel as opposed to flies
Yechiel above said it!!!
No more to add, unfortunately there are many fools in America including many of the commentators here
Call a spade a spade
Could care less about Trump… but who is so foolish to think Biden won? Who is so foolish to think the FBI DOJ and the rest of the 3 letter acronyms are not corrupt?
More evidence for the prosecution.
Miriam,
I disagree with coffee’s point, but he definitely wasn’t trying to say that Trump is in any way like Shlomo Hamelech.
His point was something else entirely.
Of course the election was rigged. It just wasn’t able to be proven. But the truth is it shouldn’t have to be proven. The circumstances should be enough to require an honest investigation into where these ballots came from. Such an investigation never happened in any state because the judges kept asking the Trump people for evidence of fraud. So everyone knows it was stolen and for good reason and now they think they can ride that momentum to finish trump off completely. But a good lawyer can get this dismissed in 5 minutes
“when Fetterman won in Pennsylvania my feelings were confirmed that the democrat party will vote for a democrat over a republican even if he’s the worse candidate.”
Fetterman’s opponent was a con artist just like Trump, whose running mate for Governor was an anti-Semite.
