Trump to travel 'unannounced' to fake 'hearing' on election fraud -- after aides failed to talk him

after aides failed to talk him out of it: reports

November 24, 2020

By Bob Brigham

President Donald Trump is planning to make a surprise visit to a fake legislative “hearing” in Pennsylvania, CNN and The New York Times reported Tuesday night.

“Trump is expected to join [Rudy] Giuliani in Gettysburg, PA tomorrow where GOP state lawmakers are holding a ‘hearing’ on allegations of fraud in the 2020 election, two sources familiar with the plans tell me. Not on his schedule, but being planned as an unannounced movement,” CNN’s Jeremy Diamond reported Thursday.

The hearing is not a formal legislative hearing, but is being held by the Pennsylvania Senate Majority Policy Committee, which is a subset of the GOP caucus. It is not being held at the capitol, but at a Wyndham Hotel.

“The president will take a taxpayer funded trip on Air Force One and commit police resources to protect him so he can participate in a staged event meant to undermine the legitimacy of American democracy rather than have any actual legal effect,” Dovere wrote.

Air Force One anymore. I forget the context in which it was said exactly, but it sounded like this would be some time before his term actually ends. I was kind of surprised by that. Do you know anything about this?

I did read for personal use he would have to pay the equivalent of s first class ticket for himself and others with him. I don't know if that info is accurate.

Nothing wrong with them. I’ve stayed in many. But Trump will think he is in Vietnam. They don’t even have a restaurant!

I guess it’s fitting this is where it ends up.

But from Trump, it's normal and to be expected. And unfortunately, it's going to get even worse between now and President-Elect Biden's inauguration.
