He is angry that he had to capitulate and is now going on his retribution tour..

He actually signed an Executive Order for the DOJ to investigate two people that he felt betrayed him with their reporting on the 2020 election. He felt that they betrayed him. He confused "betraying" him with betraying the country. He thinks they should be charged with treason.

Who does he go after next? A reporter? A former presidential opponent? A former General in his Cabinet? Who knows?

For some reason, he is obsessed about the Big Lie actually being a "big lie". He could not have lost the election in 2020, because that would make him a "loser". It's almost like he is on a very deep guilt trip and denial is his only recourse, other than putting those in jail that criticized him. Only then could he feel vindicated.

It will be a miracle if we survive 4 years of this ogre.

Like Louie XIV he IS the state. Therefore anyone who is against him is a traitor to the state. If that’s not scary I don’t know what is.

And yet it goes on every day. With all the bs he creates a lot of this goes under the radar for people.
