GET ME REWRITE: Not only is Ron Johnson an incompetent senator, he's a terrible liar

 

Headline:  Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 3/7/2024

Exhibit A:

"We need to get a document on the Wisconsin electors to you for the VP immediately," Troupis wrote in one text to Johnson that morning. "Is there a staff person I can talk to immediately."

Exhibit B

Asked what else the document could have been, Johnson responded: "I couldn't have cared less. I'm asked by the attorney for the president of the United States to deliver something to the vice president on that day."

Exhibit C

Still, other documents included in the settlement involving Troupis and former Trump attorney Kenneth Chesebro related to the scheme cast doubt on that claim. In a Dec. 8, 2020, email exchange between Troupis and Chesebro about the alternate elector plot, Troupis wrote that he "spoke with Senator Johnson late last night about the Pence angle at the end."[emphasis added]

Exhibit D

"Just wanted to take his temperature," Troupis wrote. And in a text from Troupis to Chesebro on the morning of Jan. 6, Troupis said he had "been on the phone with (Trump campaign operative) Mike Roman and Senator Johnson's COS to get an original copy of Wi slate to VP," according to the court documents.

Exhibit E

Johnson over the last two years has given differing accounts of his involvement in the effort. Shortly after the select committee first released the texts from Johnson's chief of staff to a Pence aid, Johnson said he was "basically unaware" of his office's contact with Pence's team and called it a "staff-to-staff exchange."
