Related: About this forumFormer Aide Completely Blows Up Donald Trump's Only Legal Defense - Ring of Fire
Former White House aide Alyssa Farah Griffin says that Donald Trump KNEW he lost to Joe Biden in 2020, and actually admitted it before he went on his crusade about non-existent voter fraud. Claims like this could be key to taking down Trump's legal defense, assuming he is even prosecuted for his attempted coup. In order to prove criminal intent, more people like Griffin would have to come forward - with evidence - to back up their claims. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

I think it's backwards. TFG should have to prove that he believed the fantasy.

And same here - for a few years, actually! We have the evidence, I sure wish it would happen soon! Meanwhile, he's still holding "campaign rallies," raking in more contributions from his conspiracy theorists (which is his chief aim) and causing even more turmoil!

Garland has waited Far Far too long to Prosecute. His minions don't even remember Jan 6.
