The funniest part is that I think a lot of them don't actually believe that, but they are having so much fun pretending to believe it. Not all of them, obviously. There are some legit dummies. But I think a lot of those proud boy dorks in particular enjoy the chaos that comes from pretending they are living in interesting times where they might actually be called on to step up and fight for "freedom". For them, I don't think it's delusion so much as make-believe. High stakes LARPing.
their concept of patriotism is a misconstruction of dominating others.
President Donald Trump on Saturday pressured Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, a fellow Republican, to recalculate the state’s tally of presidential election votes to overturn President-elect Joe Biden’s win.
In the hour-long phone call, a recording of which was first obtained by The Washington Post, Trump pushed baseless conspiracy theories about voter fraud and told Raffensperger that Georgians are “angry” with the election results.
“We have won this election in Georgia,” Trump falsely claimed during the call. “And there’s nothing wrong with saying that, Brad. You know, I mean, having the correct ― the people of Georgia are angry. ... And there’s nothing wrong with saying that, you know, that you’ve recalculated.”
Raffensperger can be heard pushing back on Trump’s request, telling the president that the data he used to back up his claims are “wrong.”
“All I want to do is this: I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have,” Trump told Raffensperger at another point in the conversation. “Because we won the state.”
With less than three weeks left until the presidential inauguration, Trump still has not conceded the race to Biden and continues to falsely claim that the election was “rigged” against him. He has focused special attention on Georgia, which he won in 2016 but lost to Biden in November by fewer than 13,000 votes.
But top Georgia officials ― including Raffensperger and Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, a Republican who was a vocal supporter of the president leading up to the election ― have said the state’s election process was free and fair and that the results are legitimate.
Neither the Justice Department nor election officials nationwide have found any evidence of widespread voter fraud or ballot-counting irregularities.
During the Saturday call, Trump told Raffensperger that he “should want to have an accurate election” and pointed out that the secretary of state is a Republican.
“We believe that we do have an accurate election,” Raffensperger said.
Trump later accused Raffensperger of committing a “criminal offense” by knowingly covering up a conspiracy against the president and warned the secretary of state that his actions would be “very costly in many ways.”
I'm dying to know if he's going to be the first former president without a library, since he famously doesn't read.

Now I'm just imagining a room with three TVs one each replaying CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC on a Jan. 2017 to Jan. 2021 24/7 loop.

Today I learned guns are basically illegal in DC. Huh.
Who taught you this?!
I was exaggerating. Open carry is illegal, I didn't know that, is what I meant.
I'm pretty sad that Georgia will most definitely vote for the GOP senators again though. When's that vote, tomorrow I think.
It's never felt so good to be so wrong.
