Important post. It looks so indeed. But, we couldn't read here, any text which would blatantly and conclusively, head on I mean, show the gap between the declarations or statements made for the fundraising and where it did got to finally. It is hard to doubt it of course. Yet, better being based on texts. Authentic, and formal.

The Guardian by the way, suggests, I quote:

" Some of the emails were general, pleading with Trump supporters to “defend our democracy” and prevent the “Radical Left” from “DESTROYING America”. They were sent under several different names – from Trump himself, his sons Don Jr and Eric, the former speaker of the House of Representatives Newt Gingrich, the current chair of the Republican National Committee Ronna McDaniel, and then vice-president Mike Pence. Despite the nuances, all the millions of emails sent out from the @victory.donaldtrump.com address essentially said the same thing. They exhorted Trump supporters to back the “Official Election Defense Fund” with their hard-earned dollars."

However, one may never guess even, what a smart and skillful lawyer, may present in court as defense. Even in already in advance doomed case.
