    How does a civil suit by a state, NOT federal, against your company that has been conducting fraud in said state for YEARS, being held accountable [finally] somehow equal election interference?

    Unless you were going to use those properties to either gain some kind of advantage in the election, or to enrich yourself with foreign influence dollars post election. 🤔

      He thinks it’s election interference because anything that makes him look bad is election interference. Any narrative that he doesn’t personally control is unfair.

        Yeah I get his “thinking”, I just don’t see why it gets regurgitated by the media and everyone else without a follow up, “How?”. Or if you are going to post/print his insane rants it should be right next to the charges he is guilty of and WHY it isn’t interference at all.

      Perhaps. But I think there’s no point in even trying to make sense of his bullshit like that, because it ignores the fact that he is bad faith.

      No I didn’t mean to say he is operating in bad faith.

      I mean everything he does, says, his whole persona, everything about him, near him… His entire existence. It’s all bad faith lol. He is the walking embodiment of bad faith.

      He makes ever more outrageous claims and repeats it until people are talking about it. It shocks, it puts you on the defensive. It confuses and confounds. It dominates.

      It’s not a denial or brilliant logic. It’s a power move of crude, clumsy, brute force. It’s breaking the whole game of statements and denials and counter claims and all that. It’s like playing chess and suddenly breaking your opponent’s arm and pissing on them.

      Because he’s too pathetic and stupid to do anything calculating, deliberate, and complex. But the tactic is effective just like some brainless water buffalo stumbling around kicking the heads of predators purely on instinct is effective.

      So the shit spewing from his head hole isn’t about whether it is true or to be made sense of any more than the mindless flailing of some dumb prey animal is to be analyzed for its Karate technique.
