Some Trump aides stuck with him till the end. Now they're screwed.

Four days into his post-presidency life, Donald Trump has insulated himself from the outside world.

Unseen by the public and unusually quiet as key parts of his policy legacy are dismantled by the new administration, the once ubiquitous Trump has been plotting out his political future. But without a social media loudspeaker through which to tease his plans, few know what to expect next, including his own former aides.

“We’ll do something, but not just yet,” Trump told a reporter at his Mar-a-Lago compound on Friday.

So far, the former president has floated the creation of a third-party movement that would enable him to support MAGA-friendly candidates in the 2022 midterms and beyond. He is also interested in becoming “the nation’s leader on ballot and voting integrity,” his senior adviser Jason Miller said on a podcast last Thursday.

Repeat wherever your GOP has a sympathetic insurrectionist in government, that the election is full of fraud.

If all else fails, incite a bunch of no-nothings to take over the Capital and kill the Democracy so no need for voting.

He is also interested in becoming "the nation's leader on ballot and voting integrity". I can't even say his name and integrity in the same sentence, unless "a total fuckin' lack of" is included.
