Revealed: Trump Lawyers' Plan to Extend Jan. 6 Chaos for Weeks

New documents uncover a scheme to delay certification and create a constitutional crisis, aiming to keep Trump in office.

Donald Trump's lawyers devised a plan to stretch the Jan. 6 chaos until Jan. 20, 2021, in an effort to overturn the 2020 election results.
The scheme involved pushing GOP lawmakers to prevent Congress from certifying Joe Biden’s win, hoping to force the Supreme Court to decide the election.
Kenneth Chesebro, a Trump attorney, provided thousands of pages of documents to Michigan prosecutors, revealing the plan's details for the first time.
The plan aimed to invalidate the Electoral Count Act, creating endless debate and confusion over the certification process.
Despite the elaborate strategy, the plan ultimately did not succeed, and Joe Biden was inaugurated as President on Jan. 20, 2021.
