A special grand jury in Georgia has revealed that former President Donald Trump called then-Georgia House Speaker David Ralston after the 2020 elections asking him to convene a special session of the legislature to overturn Joe Biden’s narrow victory in the state.

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, five of the 23 jurors involved in the investigation revealed that they listened to a recording of the phone conversation between Trump and Ralston. The jurors said that Ralston “basically cut the president off” during the call.

The jurors also revealed that Donald Trump-devotee Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) testified during the investigation, saying that “if somebody had told Trump that aliens came down and stole Trump ballots, that Trump would’ve believed it.”

The grand jury’s investigation was looking into whether Trump and his allies tried to unlawfully interfere in the 2020 election results. The jurors said that they came away with the impression Ralston had brushed Trump back.

The special grand jury’s investigation is ongoing and it is unclear what the outcome will be. However, the jurors’ revelations provide insight into the former president’s state of mind following his 2020 election loss to Joe Biden.
