They are desperate: Trump releases 12-page response to Jan. 6 hearing

(The Hill) Former President Trump on Monday issued a 12-page rebuttal to testimony and evidence presented by a House committee investigating the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021, accusing Democrats of seeking to distract from a series of domestic issues facing the country.
Seventeen months after the events of January 6th, Democrats are unable to offer solutions, Trump said in a statement released through his Save America PAC. They are desperate to change the narrative of a failing nation, without even making mention of the havoc and death caused by the Radical Left just months earlier. Make no mistake, they control the government. They own this disaster. They are hoping that these hearings will somehow alter their failing prospects.
The 12-page document underscores how Trump has yet to move on from his false claims of fraud in the 2020 election, and how the committees work may be central to a potential 2024 campaign.

(5,392 posts)2. Who wrote that for Trump?
He will never let go of his basic 'fact' that he was robbed in a fixed election.
As much as his writers try to shift the blame, the whole thing falls apart because of that assumption.
