1) Memo to Trump campaign: I was going through docs from 2016 and found this memo I sent through channels to the Trump team.

2) I can't reveal all of it, but I think enough time has passed I can share some of it.

3) Realize this would go to the top at that time.
4) I of course cannot guarantee that it got to the top, only that it got in the pipeline.

5) Ok. first really important thing: the title.

"AFTER WE WIN"
6) Second, the date: November 1, 2016.
7) In case you went to public schools that was before the general election.

8) Among other things I said "the moment after a Trump victory, you must be prepared. The following will occur:"

*contd . . . "court disaster." We could not, I stated, hope to appeal to the members' "conscience, Constitutional moorings, or even common sense."
