Friend, 

It looks like JD’s claim that his running mate actually led a peaceful transfer of power couldn’t come at a better time, because earlier this week, more details about that transfer were released. You’ll be shocked to know that the day Trump called a bunch of his cult members up to Washington to beat up cops and piss on the walls of the Capitol Rotunda was anything but peaceful. And just like we’ve said from the beginning, it was planned by the current Republican nominee for President.

1. Trump was cool with Pence getting killed. After Mike Pence had made it clear that he would not go with Trump’s slate of false electors and would carry out the Constitution, the rioters outside of the Capitol quickly took notice. And they were not pleased. In fact, they were so angry, that the majority of them started chanting “hang Mike Pence.” When an aide rushed to the Oval Office to inform Trump that the protestors were trying to hang his vice president, Trump simply replied “so what?” and kept watching Fox News. Better watch your back, JD.

2. Trump gave a damning pep talk. Within the confines of Marine One, Trump actually told members of his family that "It doesn't matter if you won or lost the election. You still have to fight like hell." Yes, he actually said this before instructing a mob to break into the Capitol. Unfortunately for him, there was a White House Official there who isn’t related to him and therefore is willing to testify. Whoops.

3. Now we know the real reason Trump cleaned house at the RNC. Before the insurrection, but after he got crushed by President Biden, Trump busted out his box of crayons and created an “official report” on rigged voting machines in Michigan. Once it was finished, he asked Ronna McDaniel, a chairwoman at the RNC, to blast the report far and wide. She refused. Why? Because she had already shown it to the Michigan Speaker of the House and they said the report was “f******* nuts.” Couldn’t have said it better ourselves.

4. Trump tried to overturn the election before it was even over. On November 4th, Trump was losing big in Detroit, and his inner circle knew. So naturally, one Trump campaign staffer took it upon themselves to text a Trump operative who was at a Detroit vote counting center. The texts were brief, but informative. The only two things said were "Make them riot" and "Do it!!!!” This must've been what Trump was talking about when he tweeted “stop the count!” on election night.

5. Trump mocked the hell out of Sidney Powell, but still used her conspiracy theory. This is one of our favorites. Remember when Trump’s wacko lawyer actually said that the voting machines used in Michigan were programmed to hand President Biden the election at the direction of Hugo Chávez? We thought that was hilarious. Apparently so did Trump, who laughed at the theory while comparing it to Star Trek. Obviously didn’t stop him from tweeting about it several times and letting his cronies talk about it on air with Tucker Carlson.

This may all be new information, but it shouldn't change any opinions on Trump. We’ve always known he tried to cheat. We’ve always known he led an insurrection. We’ve always known he doesn’t actually think he won. And most importantly, we’ve always known he’s the wrong choice for America. Help us keep him out of office so we don’t have to experience January 6th part 2 >> <[link removed]>
