A recently revealed memo authored by a Trump-allied attorney has shed light on the origins of an alleged scheme to install slates of fake electors in swing states in an attempt to keep Trump in power after his electoral loss. The memo proposed a "bold" and "controversial" plan, which was circulated among Trump campaign lawyers and associates, but ultimately failed. The memo provides insight into the strategy that the Trump campaign was pursuing in the wake of the 2020 election, and further developments in the ongoing investigation are expected.
