    I think trump believed the post. I think he believed a random internet post more than the fact checker. Maybe he keeps saying nonsense because he believes it, and not always because he is trying to manipulate people.

      NBD. Not like he’s running for a position powerful enough to wipe 90% of life off the planet or anything. We want the president to be a gullible rube that doubles down on the stupidity when discovered. What could go wrong?

      I could maybe believe this if he didn’t flop around on things and say some of them were jokes. Like the lost by a whisker comment that pissed off several members of his base so he just walked it back by saying he was kidding.

      He is running and spending millions of tax payer dollars, on an election he doesn’t believe is legitimate according to his words/actions. Bologna, why would you spend all your time on something you know you can’t win.

      He knows he lost, he is just a fraud. The people he frauds, the U.S. population. Pence made sure the legitimate electors were submitted last election. Wait for the conspiracies that come when maga realizes Harris is the one who submits the electors now.
