> Maggie Haberman, in a CNN interview, said that the “report” Trump will be pooping out on Monday is just a rehash of all the conspiracy theories that have already been debunked about “massive fraud” in Georgia. Not sure how Trump thinks this is going to help.

[As I said in the Jan. 7 thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/7-jan-2021-and-beyond-the-aftermath-of-the-storming-of-the-capitol/930020/4492), this report is pure 4D chess.

Trump probably thinks that none of his actions were crimes because he truly believed the election was stolen. (After all, everyone on social media says so.) So this report doesn’t have to prove anything, because its very existence will demonstrate how very thoroughly Trump still believes the election was stolen – and that, therefore, he’s completely innocent.
