How has Former President Trump pissed you off today?

I’m sure Trump’s silence is because he can’t figure out how it benefits him.

Oh, I think it’s a little more complicated than that:

Part of why I think Trump is so bewildered is because yeah, there was a ton of fraud and cheating, and he knew it was gonna happen.

Bo’s Crazy 2020 Election Theory

Okay, I have no evidence, and I know that it mostly sounds like ridiculous conspiracy theory-type bullshit; here’s my wild-eyed & crazy take on what actually happened in the 2020 election:

First: Trump cheated. He cheated with the help of the Russians and the full knowledge and cooperation of people like William Barr, Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham as well as a veritable horde of others. He had the Postal System disrupted, he had lawyers waiting to pounce on things, etc. And he had the Russians helping him too with both agitprop and with actual interference in the voting software. He had no doubts he was going to win.

Two things happened that Trump didn’t count on: the Russians fucked him and the population really does hate him and so turned out in droves to vote against him.

The Russians fucked him by not really fucking with the vote totals like they could have. Putin, IMO, sees more benefit from cutting Trump loose than from continuing to help him. So they helped, but on Election Day they suddenly were amscrayed and Trump is left holding the bag. He can’t complain publicly or even privately about Putin because a) the American public would lynch him and b) Putin would prolly get to him before the American public.

So now Trump is in a pickle, eh. He has no way forward and no way back. He can’t even pivot: he’s truly backed himself into a corner. Trump is not used to this: he has no leverage. So he’s flailing, trying to find something to hang onto.

McConnell knows all this; so do Barr and Graham, but since they’ve all been compromised by Russia, they are also powerless to say or do much without instructions from Putin except keep backing Trump.
