The big news this week wasn't really news at all, but rather confirmation of what we already knew. After a rally of supporters last Saturday in Conroe, Texas, the former president admitted for the first time that his goal was to have his Vice President, Mike Pence, "overturn the election."
Well, whoop-de-do. Pundits call that "saying the quiet part out loud," one of those phrases that is so meaningless it should be put in a bottle, sent out on the Japanese current and retired forever. There was never a "quiet part" with Donald Trump. He came right out and told you what he was doing nearly every day. Once he woke up on the morning of Nov. 4, 2020, all he did was try to overturn the election. He claimed repeatedly that he had "won by a landslide" even after election results came in showing him losing by more than 7 million votes overall, and by 74 votes in the Electoral College.
