    Eh, he’s lightly alluded to that before. But then his cult start freaking out or his ego takes a ding. And then it’s back to the vociferous “stolen election” bullshit.

    Said on the other thread:

    No. He always knew it. That was part of the Jan 6 commission findings. That he appears to be altering his past statements to solicit support from a particular audience is not that notable, there are lots of examples.

    I’m a Free Thinking Republican and this is ONLY happening because the Deep State is trying to Kill Trump as demonstrated by sending a Child Assassin to MISS on Purpose to send a message to Trump because they’re scared of Him. That’s LITERALLY the ONLY reason why he’s saying this! I think for Myself!

          Or, perhaps, the reader is nodding along the whole way and completely misses the point — because they’re already a fucking moron? Don’t feed trolls, even by accidental crumbs. 🙇🏽‍♂️

    In a podcast interview with Russian American computer scientist Lex Fridman that aired Tuesday, Trump acknowledged that he lost the presidential election “by a whisker.” (You can check out Trump’s comments around the 11:10 mark.) The surprising remarks follow a similar comment by Trump at a Moms for Liberty conference last week, saying Biden “beat us by a whisker”—before baselessly claiming that Democrats “used Covid to cheat.” At a press conference at the southern border last month, Trump said that he came up “just a little bit short” in the last election.

    He just repeat the last thing someone says to him, so it’s just a matter of time until he came back saying that the election was stolen.

    The article quotes him as saying

    “beat us by a whisker”

    and then

    “used Covid to cheat.”

    So I suspect in his mind, he still only “lost” because of the millions of illegal immigrants voting or some similar BS. I.e. the media is being too optimistic about this guy’s POV and mental state.
