How Donald J Trump Lost the White House by Patrick Byrne
So I’ve been reading the historical accounts of how President Trump lost the White House, as told by Patrick Byrne, the former CEO of Overstock.com, and this guy has a great storytelling sense and a photographic memory to boot!
I find his account to be fascinating, especially as he goes through all of the details of his interactions with General Flynn, Sydney Powell, Rudy Giuliani, the Secret Service, staffers, lawyers, traitors, patriots, experts, and so, so many more. Patrick was intimately involved in trying to help President Trump prove election fraud, but it turns out as well that President Trump is (was) surrounded by incompetence and traitors.
I do question whether or not President Trump has known all along that the military was the only way and therefore much of the effort involved on the civilian side (e.g., General Flynn, Sydney Powell, Patrick Byrne) is somewhat moot in the big scheme of things, but one thing is for sure: there are numerous forces working against President Trump 24/7 from within and without.
So far, Patrick has posted four chapters, in chronological order. I’ve read each one, all the way through. It’s probably the most “inside look” we’re going to get at the election fraud and everything surrounding it.
Here are a few paragraphs from Patrick’s writings:
“Eventually, I was brought back into a smaller room with Mayor Giuliani, and again asked to explain what I think happened. Realizing I may have overwhelmed him with my earlier explanation, and gotten him lost in the forest for the trees, I broke it down simply and slowly, like one would for one’s 76-year-old Grandfather. Again within 5-10 minutes he was fidgeting, grunting on occasion, sending people on unrelated side errands, checking his multiple phones for texts, and typing responses…. Meanwhile, I tried to stay on track. Yet there was a moment 15 minutes in when I got a whiff of something in that small office…. Medicine? Booze? Just as I was taking a sniff to determine, someone rushed in with some unrelated issue, and I was escorted from the office.”
“In this chapter I will follow that principle. I start with an analysis of the packet traffic on Election Day 2020 provided me by the best cyber-forensics specialist (aka “dolphin-speaker”) I have ever met. As packets travel through the Internet they leave a trail, and dolphin-speakers using the right tools can, in a sense, “shine a light” and reveal those packet trails in the cyber-fog. The cyber-specialists to whom I refer, who has access to such tools (and even more arcane ones), has documented vote-flipping in the Problematic 6 states amounting to 299,567 votes, just enough in each state to flip the election. 43% of that activity came from China.”
“After some time (20-30 minutes), three lawyers appeared together. They did not introduce themselves, and stood huddling in the back of the Oval Office, listening. In addition, Mark Meadows and someone else joined us by speaker phone. Eventually the lawyers in the back began muttering things to make their displeasure and disagreement evident. Finally President Trump said something indicating this was new to him, wondering why no one had shown him this route through the impasse. I said again, “Sir, again, CEO to CEO, you are not being served well by those around you in the White House. I’ve gotten to know staffers in your White House, and they tell me they are being told that leadership here is telling them to get you to concede.”
Trump started to say something to Mike and Sidney, but he stopped himself and turned back towards me. “Who?” He asked angrily, “Who wants me to concede?”
“The show started, and soon Flynn and I were sinking into our seats in despair. One of Trump’s children got up and sang “Happy Birthday” to a girlfriend, or boyfriend. Rudy got up and spoke about Joe Frazier voting, again. Another lawyer got up and spoke. Don Jr. got up and with his chest puffed out, strode the stage talking about how the Republican brand was now the Trump brand, or the Trump brand was now the Republican brand, or something about branding. Around that time, Flynn and I caught eyes and shared looks of horror: it turned out later we were both asking if the other wanted to leave, but misunderstood each other. It was so bad that someone with some sense among the organizers had a change of heart, and came running over to ask General Flynn if he would take the stage: he refused. The shenaigans went on for an hour or more, then Trump appeared and spoke, much as he would at any campaign event or pep rally. In fact, the whole thing was more or less a pep rally: no effort was made to explain to the crowd, to the Americans who were watching at home, to the Senators who would begin voting in an hour, to the world that counts on America to be the leader of free, fair, and transparent elections, what had really gone wrong with the November 2020 election, and why we believed there were deep irregularities demanding investigation. No effort at all.”
"At this point I will insert one important sub-story. In those days of swimming around with people who were in various proximities to the President, I was told something by someone very much in Trump’s inner circle. What I was told was this: Melania had been warned by a government official that if Trump served another term he would be JFK’ed. It may even have been someone in the Secret Service itself, in a “We will not be able to protect him” sense. The threat included another family member as well, per the telling. I find it hard to believe that anyone in the Secret Service itself would ever say that, but the source of the information to me had otherwise been blemishless, and the claim was that whoever (perhaps Secret Service, perhaps someone else) had said this to Melania, it was someone from whom such a claim would be taken seriously. Melania was begging Donald not to fight, and simply to concede and get out of Washington with his family."

To get Patrick Byrne's account of what’s been going on behind the scenes, at least with some of the major players who are acting outside of the White House, but some who are inside too, I highly recommend reading what Patrick has thus far written (he’s got more chapters to write!). Go to his website DEEP CAPTURE and then read chapter one first. Or, just go to:
How DJT Lost the White House, Chapter 1: All the President’s Teams (11/3 – 12/17)
Have a great weekend,
