 WATCH: Trump Campaign Attorney Jenna Ellis Explains Explains Two-Prong Approach to Election Challenges   Follow Jonathan Davis Posted November 24, 2020

Supporters of President Donald Trump have been bewildered – and increasingly confused – by developments regarding his campaign legal team in recent days, but one member, attorney Jenna Ellis, took some time out on Monday to try and explain what’s going on.

In an interview with Newsmax TV, she acknowledged that, indeed, the campaign had cut ties with attorney and former federal prosecutor Sidney Powell, but not in a way that should upset supporters of the president.

Supporters of President Donald Trump have been bewildered – and increasingly confused – by developments regarding his campaign legal team in recent days, but one member, attorney Jenna Ellis, took some time out on Monday to try and explain what’s going on.

In an interview with Newsmax TV, she acknowledged that, indeed, the campaign had cut ties with attorney and former federal prosecutor Sidney Powell, but not in a way that should upset supporters of the president.

In fact, based on what she said, the separation won’t make any difference in legal strategies. It might have even made the legal path forward clearer and less convoluted.

Essentially, Ellis explained the Trump campaign is taking a two-pronged legal approach moving forward.

National File reported:

In an appearance on Newsmax TV on Monday, senior advisor to President Donald Trump’s legal team Jenna Ellis explained that the campaign’s legal team is focused on proving demonstrable physical fraud in Philadelphia, Detroit, and other big cities, while Trump-adjacent attorney Sidney Powell intends to launch her own case against Dominion Voting Systems and Smartmatic.

Appearing on the heels of the nes that the Third Circuit Court has granted emergency proceedings for the Trump campaign’s lawsuit, paving the way for the campaign’s strategy to reach the Supreme Court as fast as possible, Ellis explained the logic behind allowing Powell to conduct an independent investigation while the campaign proceeds legally.

“Sidney’s been a great friend of mine, and ultimately the legal team was looking at two different directions,” said Ellis, before clarifying that focusing on election official fraud would be the faster path to victory. “Sidney is very much focusing on Dominion Voting Systems, and that’s going to be a much longer strategy, and that’s going to be something that she’s investigating.

Rudy and I, and the other members of the legal team, our focus is looking at the election official fraud,” she added. “You have these election officials that have just completely disregarded election law in their state.”

“We do have a very narrow window here before December 14, which is when the Electoral College votes, to make sure that we can get this strategy through.” She added, “I think there are very significant questions on Dominion, why we have 28 states that have their voting system. I think that’s something the legislature should contemplate, and I hope Sidney is very successful in that one.”

Ellis went on to note that yes, she believes that Powell has uncovered something very wrong with the Dominion Voting Systems machines and software, but the campaign doesn’t have the time to help her develop that case so it has to instead focus on narrower constitutional issues.

“I think that there are very significant questions that the American people deserve answers to, but that’s just going to take a little more time, so we are focused on behalf of the president and the campaign with the election official fraud,” she added.

“Just to clarify, we only have three lawsuits at this time. We’ll be bringing a few others in the coming days,” she added. “For all of the peanut gallery Democrats and reporters out there trying to attribute lawsuits that still deal with election integrity issues, and are brought by really well-meaning people, they’re trying to attribute those to us when those are not on behalf of the campaign.”
