Former President Donald Trump told Republican Leader Mitch McConnell that if he could get Georgia's Gov. Brian Kemp to overturn now President Joe Biden's 2020 win in his state officials in Michigan and Pennsylvania would follow.
CNN obtained an excerpt Wednesday of the forthcoming book This Will Not Pass: Trump, Biden, and the Battle for America's Future by New York Times reporters Jonathan Martin and Alexander Burns - which details some of the conversations the ex-president had following his November 2020 election loss.
'I've been calling folks in those states and they're with us,' Trump reportedly told McConnell and other Senate GOP leaders during a phone call in December 2020 about Pennsylvania and Michigan.
After the call, McConnell told his colleagues, 'We've got to stay focused on Georgia,' the book said.
