Beware the new "re-propaganda" plan.

It's not that the "base" does not still support Trump. They do.

But Trump wants them to double-down on the premise that the election was stolen. Why?

Because that is the only defense that he has left. He believes that if he can get enough of his base to support his claim that the election was "rigged", then that will somehow protect him from prosecution. At the very least, it will create a subversive environment against our government.

We should note that in the last two or three days, he has narrowed in on the subject matter. (Of course, he had his infamous "double-negative" statement, but his "base" knew what he meant)

There is a re-newed effort to re-propagandize the weak-minded traitors to this country. They do not know better. They have little invisible strings tied to their collars.

It is a new threat to our democracy and we should be aware of how it is happening.

Because he can NEVER be a loser.

Keeping his base energized is a bonus for him.

I don't know that the DOJ would take that into consideration if they are weighing pressing charges.

But he is mostly concerned about saving his own butt at this time. He is using the "big Lie" for self-protection.
