The Republican Governor of Arizona, Doug Ducey, was so proud of his personal relationship with Trump that he programmed his phone to play "Hail to Chief" whenever the President called. Yesterday Ducey was holding a press conference to certify the results in his state (Democrats Biden and Kelly both won) when his phone apparently rang with those familiar tones.
Ducey turned off his phone.
Meanwhile Trump plans to campaign for the Republican candidates in the Georgia run-off elections. He has attacked both the Republican Governor, Brian Kemp, and the Republican Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, for not supporting Trump's delusional beliefs about how Georgia's electoral votes were stolen from him. Both the Senate candidates signed a letter asking Raffensperger to step down. He refused. So it's not obvious how Trump's appearance will play out. Republicans in the state are worried that Trump's constant refrains about how the election was "rigged" will discourage his supporters from voting in the January 5th run-offs.
Raffensperger and his family have also received
death threats from wild-eyed Trump zealots.
Trump has managed to con his supporters out of
$150 million so far by making his wild accusations of improprieties in the election process. Good down payment toward the
$400 million he is thought to owe personally to creditors like Deutsche Bank.
