... while trying to commit election fraud.

"Ordinarily, disputed fart stories tend to dissipate quickly before finally vanishing into thin air. They are, by their very nature, ephemeral, and even brief dispute vis-a-vis denial or supply-al is enough to consign them to a sort of permanent mystery. But for all the grim precedent-busting that the last months have delivered, there is one hopeful bit of evidence that the truth about Trump’s heated moment may someday be known. Giuliani’s incident in Michigan was captured from multiple angles and confirmed by a sworn member of Michigan’s legislature; it is as close to an airtight example of public rage-farting as we’ve yet seen. While it is unlikely that we’ll ever have such confirmation here—there is only the one recording, and there is the matter of Mr. Trump’s powerful executive chair—it is safe to say that precedent is no longer a guide. Anything is possible.
It is the nature of the Trump presidency that moments like this come and go frequently, arriving in rude and grandiose ways before being carried away by the next such blast, and the one after that. It fits, then, that his presidency would end on this note—in a gust or two of noise and fury, in unknowable and unanswerable dispute, in a long stupid phone call that does nothing more than poison some otherwise empty hour into submission."
