Neither the FBI nor any intelligence agency has been able to find any specific evidence.
More people within the White House are already thinking about where they will be working after Jan. 20. Others are pondering their political future and how close they were to President Donald Trump.
The mood in the White House is no longer what we saw before the presidential election. Some offices are working with their full staff, while others are already empty. There is too much secrecy in some of the offices that will pass into other hands.
It is common knowledge in the U.S. president’s close and not-so-close circles that there is nothing left to fight for and they have no proof that can overturn the “fraudulent” election. Deep down, Trump understands that he is out of chips, but his ego and arrogance need to stand against a scenario of defeat.
Reader, you have been able to pick up that, although Trump has accepted a transition, he has yet to suggest conceding or accepting that he lost the election.
What is left is buying time, the time that will be necessary before he has to hand over the White House as mandated by the 20th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
Why do you think that practically none of Trump’s campaign team’s lawsuits have been successful in the various appellate and supreme courts of the states where there was “fraud”? Don’t you think that if Rudy Giuliani and Trump’s lawyers had any convincing evidence, proceedings to overturn the presidential election would have already begun?
Do you not find it strange that not even those Republican governors of the conservative states are playing along with Trump’s game, instead thinking it better to certify their state’s votes, giving the victory to Democrat Joe Biden?
What was the point of raising $160,000,000 for a campaign that lost reelection and hasn’t been able to win a single battle in the courts?
Let’s not fool ourselves. Trump understands that he needs to create a smokescreen to divert the attention of his electorate and the press from two very important things:
1. Starting to think about how many people he can grant a presidential pardon to and who deserves it.
2. Raising money for the lawsuits that Trump and many in his circle will face after his presidency ends.
Why would Giuliani be asking the president for a preemptive pardon for himself, Trump’s children and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner?
Interesting, isn’t it?
U.S. Attorney General William Barr already determined that the Department of Justice has found no proof of fraud in the election. Neither the FBI nor any intelligence agency has been able to find any specific evidence.
Trump’s craziness and mania are reaching concerning levels, so much so that he has even accused the FBI and the Department of Justice of possibly being involved in the election fraud.
Less than 50 days remain until the transfer of power in the most powerful nation in the world. However, honestly, it seems that we are watching a nation that no longer is what it once was, thanks to an individual who promised to make America great again.
What is left for a person who has already lost and has no proof that can make him emerge the winner? What more is left for a man who could end up in prison? Using lies and deception to provoke others in order to create a false impression of victory or revenge.
What is left is the continued deterioration of democracy and the institutions that once gave the presidential victory to a man who does not know how to lose and acknowledge his defeat to the media.
