It's like he needs it to be his next big lie. I'm sure many of his faithful will become true believers of it. I'm not sure what benefit they will think they get out of helping him maintain that lie.

A good corollary of this is Eric Cartman's quote:


"I do what I Want !"

as we see mob bosses, but a decent guy who had to do some nasty things. He had no idea of the limits the agould be on his actions. He did have some idea the limits existed, just no idea where they were. In that he was a bit less than slobfather whe seems to have no idea limits exist.

Call to Georgia’s Secretary of State..perfect…
Greatest president ..greater than Washington and Lincoln
Nothing is his fault..it’s his Democratic enemies, RINOs, and Republican never-Trumpers who are jealous and want to take him down
He brags he openly and transparently” took documents from the White House to Florida..

Trump has no shame, is void of self reflection and remorse.. so like Nixon..if the president does it then it’s legal
