January 6th Hearing Suggests Trump Exploited 'Red Mirage' For Bogus Election Theft Claim - MSNBC



An MSNBC panel explores the implication in the second January 6th hearing that Donald Trump was aware of how the "red mirage" would appear to give him an early election lead and sought to exacerbate that trend and then exploit it to claim the election was being stolen when he knew later-counted ballots would be more Democratic. Aired on 06/13/2022.

which greatly increased the size of the Red Mirage, making it more convincing to the ill- and under-informed.

He's not stupid. It's all premeditated, even the stuff you would never think anyone would think of. His only really talent is thinking of ways to stoop lower and lower than anyone has ever stooped before.

And they made it tougher to vote by mail, remember all the mailboxes that disappeared? You're right, rather than working hard for the people while in office, they work overtime looking for more ways that make it easier for them to cheat.
