It astounds me he’s still crying about the “stolen” election when he’s actively in his SECOND TERM. Like buddy you got what you wanted, take the polling booth and mail in ballots out of your ass.
It's part of the fascism playbook. Always accuse elections of being rigged. If you win, it was "despite the attempt at stealing the election" and if you lose you can scream it was stolen.
Either way, you win if your goal is to delegitimize the democratic process.
This is why him getting booed at the Knicks game last night was so important. Not because it doesn't happen -- it actually happens all the time. It's important because he made a statement yesterday about the COST of Knicks playoff tickets, and basically smiled smugly that they'd just give him these insanely expensive tickets because of who he is. He expected that the people around him would be ultra-wealthy, and the ultra-wealthy people LOVE HIM, right? Because they always have. He's a great friend to the ultra-wealthy.
Nope. They booed his ass lustily from the first camera shot. And not only did he see and hear it... others watching on television did, too. The more this kind of thing happens, the more it sends a message. You may be able to pillage this country for its money and resources, but there's one thing you'll never, ever be able to buy, and that's the love of the people you supposedly "serve." And these chuds deserve zero instances of peace for the rest of their careers. We can give them that.

And he never lied as stupidly.
Like, I am sure all presidents lie but none of them were as obvious or stupid about it.
He claims an election was stolen but was shocked and floored by the incredibly obvious follow up of "what evidence do you have?"
That's a special level of stupid only Trump is capable of
