Special counsel Jack Smith has outlined new details of former President Donald Trump and his allies’ sweeping and “increasingly desperate” efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss, in a blockbuster court filing Wednesday aimed at defending Smith’s prosecution of Trump following the Supreme Court’s July immunity ruling.

Trump intentionally lied to the public, state election officials, and his own vice president in an effort to cling to power after losing the election, while privately describing some of the claims of election fraud as “crazy,” prosecutors alleged in the 165-page filing.

    If he overturned the 2020 election now, would the 22nd ammendment apply to the election next month?

    Just get some fat Asian guy with a bad haircut to call him “your excellency” and shit like that, there’s zero chance he has the mental capacity to discern reality from fantasy.
