How stupid is Trump?

It's just sad at this point. When the election was called in favor of President Biden in November 2020, Trump and his lackeys declared that it had to be a result of widespread election fraud, which Attorney General Bill Barr confirmed was not the case in December. They still tried the case in legal courts and the court of public opinion, having dozens of cases before state and federal judges, including the U.S. Supreme Court (many of whom Trump appointed), dismissed, being laughed out each and every time. Rudy Giuliani, the man in charge, farted at a hearing, held a press conference at a landscape shop he thought was a hotel (conveniently located between a crematorium and an adult toy store), and had his hair dye run while Sydney Powell claimed a Venezuelan socialist president long dead shipped in ballots. They tried the recounts in key states typical of an election before deciding to challenge the Electoral College certification in Congress (ending in insurrection) and launching a multistate lawsuit. All bitter failures but all successful in garnering a wide audience of gullible Americans.

Mike Lindell has been the most active figure in promoting the "Big Lie." He met with Trump in the White House and suggested martial law, which the Department of Defense, thankfully, refused to make use of. First, the Supreme Court would hand Trump the win in time to be inaugurated for a second term, they said. Then, martial law would come into force on January 20th, 2021. Nope. Then Q, the hillbilly in charge of America's biggest cult, said Trump would be reinstated on March 4th, the date presidents were sworn in until 1937. When that didn't happen, they claimed it was a false flag and that the real date would be April 20th. Another date came and another date went without incident. Some people got so desperate they actually believed that Joe Biden was an actor and the White House had been a set for the past 100 days.

Lindell's next claim was that Trump would be reinstated by August, a claim Trump himself echoed on his website and at his rally. When interviewed by Jordan Klepper at the Arizona "audit," a group of "Cyber Ninjas" with no license or experience that even most Republicans want nothing to do with checking for bamboo ballots in between high school graduations at a rented fairground, Lindell amended his claim AGAIN. The Supreme Court is in recess between late June and early October, and Lindell claimed he would launch a documentary "exposing" the 2020 election in August, meaning that the Supreme Court would "have to make Trump president and defeat the communists" in October.

To any Trump supporters reading this, I have a prediction for you, a real one. Biden will remain president in October, and Lindell will push the date back to "the end of the year," "Christmas," or "January 20th, 2022," the one-year anniversary of Biden's inauguration. If you keep eating from the hand of a man whose claim to fame is a crack pipe, you will keep getting burned. Mike Lindell will grab for attention forever; that's who he is. The only thing that can blunt this repeat trauma to democracy is if people stop buying it.

Sometimes the bad guys demonstrate a level of stupidity that engenders a few minutes of deep belly laughs.
Trump's current foray into the legal system is one such example.

John Dean, who retweeted Keith Olbermann, points out that Trump will be required to sit for a deposition.
Yes, he will have to testify about his role in the January 6th insurrection.

This hinges upon the defendants not attempting to have the suits dismissed and allowing trump and his
minions to dig themselves a deep hole.

While I have no love for oligarchs and trusts, I will encourage Google, Facebook, and Twitter CEOs to let
this suit go forward and insist it be televised or at least streamed live. It would be great theater to see trump
questioned and called on his lies.

Neighbors of Donald J. Trump said that they have seen him check the mailbox in front of his house “multiple times a day”
while waiting for what he called his “reinstatement notice” to come.

Mel and Tracy Klugian, who have lived next door to Mar-a-Lago for the past twenty-seven years, said that Trump starts
checking the mailbox first thing in the morning, sometimes dressed in his bathrobe and slippers.

“I told him that the mail doesn’t come until three most days, but he just said, ‘I don’t mind waiting,’ ” Mr. Klugian said.

According to Mrs. Klugian, Trump told her that his reinstatement notice could be coming “any day now,” and he doesn’t
want to miss it.

“When the mail truck comes, he gets this excited look on his face,” she said. “Then he usually winds up with a bunch of
Pottery Barn catalogues and whatnot, and he just trudges sadly back to the house.”
