"We won every state, and they're going to let this guy become President?"...

...maybe the key line tonight in Trump's speech. The, shall we say, cognitive dissonance required to make a claim like that is beyond incredible. He's gone past Cloud-Cuckoo Land, past the Land of Oz, past Asgard, past the planet of House Harkonnen, right into the Hellscape of Hieronymous Bosch. With the Three Stooges as his personal servants. This is going to be a loooonnng 16 days...

It's only going to be a long 16 days if we let it. Personally, I'm just tuning most of it out, because it's over and it's going nowhere. Trump is the only one who doesn't know it yet, or so he claims.

He also thinks Pence can name him president Wednesday.

Must have drank too much spiked cuckoo banana monkey juice on the flight down.

fix was in and that he would be assured a 2nd term. They might have had to tell him that just to keep him in check and control him before the election. (I'm told he's not an easy person to work for.)

So when the results came in and he lost - he just couldn't believe he lost - because they told him the fix was in.

And in order to appease him after his loss - they told him - we don't know what went wrong. We had this election wired and you really won - you should have won - but the Dems cheated. Then they made stories up - that votes were shredded, stolen, tossed in a lake, the machines changed votes, etc, etc, etc.

They've filled his head with these thoughts knowing that he would obsess on this loss and maybe keep his mind off of creating even more trouble in these waning days of his administration.

I'm betting his people will tell him anything he wants to hear - just to keep him off of their backs.

And now they are just going along with anything he says or does - again - just to keep him off of their backs and make their last days of this debacle of a presidential administration end without incurring his wrath.

Typical ego fueled hyperbolic tin pot dictator crap. "I not only won the election, I won with 105% of the vote!"

Does he really believe this stuff or its just chum for his cult?
