Exactly OP

What about Trump calling out foreign election interference from China

Pompeo calling out Communist China

Just to turn the entire nation over to them the next day ?


WTF ? ?

i am a fairly logical person. this just doesn't add up. i don't understand all of the logistical work involved for what would essentially be a "lame duck" type role for the remainder of the office.

You're confused. I'm not into hopium. I'm a realist, but I think it is a legit question to ask because it isn't logical. Why go through all the extra work when you're just grinding out the final hours?

If I found out the world was ending, the last thing I would be doing is making sure I'm paying my utility bills...

I mean I guess it could all be some elaborate disinfo ploy, but that's pretty far-fetched and stupid. I still apply the "simplest solution is usually the correct solution".

Nobody gave them money. You realize candidates can't just be given money when in office right? There is literally no way we could just give trump money directly thru donations. Anything given would go to the party.

You clowns who say that stuff just shock me on how you think people are directly giving money to the President. Never even heard of people saying that EVER until Trump came along.

I think they were hoping the courts would hear the cases about election fraud. When they refused the only other option was civil war and Trump decided it was better to be patient and wake more people up. He already has 50%, he only needs about 10-20% more. It’s for the best. Society can still function somewhat normal in the mean time.

30k troops was probably for the simple reason of obscuring joe's low numbers. But it also gives everything a much more dictatorial tone which i think was actually part of the goal too.

You're the only one being logical. The keeping hope alive and POTUS making money off us theories from these two guys aren't even plausible.

I too am very curious why much of his staff were making decisions and changing policies so late in the game. It really is just confusing.

I'm actually pretty middle of the road. Maybe he was going for your money?

Honestly, if anything, this just has me doing MORE investigation to try and "solve" the PUZZLE because it feels illogical.

When I layer that with big tech / social media censorships, crazy levels of disinfo pouring out from various avenues, etc, it just feeds my curiosity.

Fairly simple answer when you combine these acts with the lifting of the lobbying ban on former administration officials. Since the left made it CRYSTAL clear that they intend to make ‘Trump loyalists’ unemployable, President Trump gave many a resume boost to allow for them to earn as much as they can in the lobbying world. A parting gift for their loyalty and service.

Re: what was the point of all the last minute cabinet and position changes in the trump admin if he was just going to quietly fade away?
This is what makes no sense to me-

Everybody, including the president, knew ahead of time there would be massive election fraud . He even had executive orders to deal with it.

We even knew about Hammer and Scorecard and obviously Trump had to know about the connections with Dominion and the DS.

All this planning and nothing, not even a workable strategy to counter the steal, makes absolutely no sense.

And I'm not beyond agreeing with this type of stance. But if that were the case, why spend your final days signing off on executive orders, moving around positions in your administration, etc.

Like I said, if I were on my way out and it was 100% certain, I'd be spending my time quite a bit differently.

Miller was more than qualified. That's just word for word what NBC tells you on the news. Even the "alt right" term you got off them. MSM just mad that an actual soldier was appointed that spot and not a bureaucrat. When NBC tells you someone isn't qualified, most likely they are qualified.

Pompeos health does not account for why he was making moves late in the game either. If he had health issues he would have left early, not do all these China policy changes and tweets up til the end.

There aren't any court challenges that could help them either we already know that.
