As Donald Trump badgered Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger on an hour-long call to"find" the votes necessary to flip the battleground state to Trump's column after the 2020 election, a Raffensperger aide fired off a plea for help.
"Need to end this call," Jordan Fuchs, then the deputy secretary of state, said in a text message to then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows."I don't think this will be productive much longer." She added:"Let's save the relationship."
