The indictment alleges that Trump and his allies engaged in a "criminal enterprise" to pressure Georgia officials to change the results of the election, which Trump lost to Joe Biden. The indictment also alleges that Trump and his allies made false claims about the election being stolen, and that they tried to intimidate and threaten Georgia officials into changing the results.
