Former President Donald Trump said Sunday that he didn’t respect lawyers and members of his campaign who told him he lost the 2020 presidential election, and that it was his decision to buy into the theory that the election was rigged.
“In many cases, I didn’t respect them,” Trump said during an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” when asked why he decided to ignore his lawyers and advisers who told him he lost the 2020 election to Joe Biden. “But I did respect others. I respected many others that said the election was rigged.”
Trump, the current frontrunner in the GOP presidential primary, is facing indictments related to his efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. In the federal case against him, prosecutors cited the fact that Trump was told repeatedly by his lawyers that he had lost the election. Trump’s campaign lost dozens of lawsuits trying to challenge his 2020 defeat in the weeks after the election, with their baseless conspiracy theories swatted away.
When pressed about how he came to the conclusion that the election was rigged, Trump said it was his own decision.
That’s going to go poorly for him in court. One of his strongest defenses in the J6 indictment was to be able to claim that he had bad legal advise.
It’s like he’s speed running being the first president put in jail.
Is this considered an Any% run?
It’s that gosh darn narcissism.
It’s because someone else is getting credit for something.
Doesn’t matter who. Doesn’t matter what. He just can’t fucking help himself and has to claim he’s the smartest and most capable in the room and definitely the “ideas guy.” We saw that with COVID and how kept trying to “outsmart” (lmao) doctors. He just can’t help himself. It’s the narcissism, he refuses to let anyone else have the spotlight for any reason.
That this dude is a piece of shit is as obvious as the color of the sky. The support he is getting is symptom of a sickness in our country.
The sickness is larger than our country, but I agree.
Tell me more mr trump! You were gonna grab that election by the pussy you say?
