election, we re still uncovering more attempts by donald trump to overturn results. according to a new report in the washington post, president trump tried to pressure doug ducey to overturn the election results, saying if now fraudulent votes could be found, it could overcome trump s narrow loss in arizona. we re learning about the content of this conversation for the first time. we already knew trump and ducey spoke after the 2020 election. trump tried to call ducey while he was certifying the election for biden on an official government live stream. on 2020, ducey was literally signing the papers to end the election, seated in front of the press. but you have to listen carefully. you can make out hail to the chief as ducey reaches into his pocket to silence the call. the ring tone is just spectacular. ducey did eventually speak to trump. did not record the call. but we have some idea what it might sound like because trump made a lot of calls in multiple states, tryi
