There's more to trump's insistence of 2020 fraud

He has never resiled from his position; the 2020 election was stolen.

This makes me think that some person, group, organistation or country that he trusted implicitly, promised him that the 2020 election was his.

An aside: they learned from their mistakes and got it 'right' in 24.

So who was the informant? Heritage foundation? Tech Bros? I can't even begin to spectulate on people with knowledge, money and a republican leaning.

Luckily trump has 'tells' - big flashing signals that broadcast when he is lying, misdirecting or distracting.

Anyone else thinking along these lines?
