You may have heard that former President Trump is planning on a big event Monday – a press conference. His plan is to release information on alleged election interference.

Things aren’t going very well for the former president right now. The justice system has been exposed as a two-tiered system, one for Republicans and one for Democrats. And, we can see that Democrats are working together to try to prevent Trump from getting elected president again. Just look at the trial schedule. Each one is during primary voting season and happens just before a primary, except one that is right after primaries. The Georgia trial date is set for the day before Super Tuesday. Probably just a coincidence.

The quick trial date by D.A. Fani Willis in Atlanta is probably just wishful thinking, but you never know. Atlanta is run by leftists. She may get her date granted. It would keep Trump tied up on the eve of Super Tuesday when he typically makes stops in several Super Tuesday states. That’s Fani’s goal.

Meanwhile, Trump is a problem client. He doesn’t listen to his legal team, apparently, and just does his own thing. He’s been warned about public comments yet here he is, on the daily, spouting off on Truth Social.

Our own Beege speaks for us all – put a sock in it. STOP TALKING.

How does he think he is doing himself any good? The press conference on Monday is a maybe now, according to reports. Does anyone believe that Trump will whip out some “ah-ha” documents and show election fraud that up until now has not been proven? And, even if there was some kind of new or additional proof, why bust it out at a press conference? That’s what lawyers are for and trials.

It would be best for Trump to stop trying to create a dramatic atmosphere and let his lawyers do their job. Listen to some of his legal team and cancel the presser on Monday. Why give Fani and her team more ammunition?

Trump claims he’ll produce an “irrefutable” report. Georgia Governor Brian Kemp says the election was not stolen in Georgia.

Trump announced the planned press conference with a social media post shortly after he and 18 co-defendants were indicted late Monday in Georgia. He said he would present, “A Large, Complex, Detailed but Irrefutable REPORT on the Presidential Election Fraud which took place in Georgia.”

Georgia’s Republican governor responded to that with his own social media post declaring, “The 2020 election in Georgia was not stolen. For nearly three years now, anyone with evidence of fraud has failed to come forward — under oath — and prove anything in a court of law.”

Various Trump lawyers have presented lawsuits in court with claims of election fraud and all have lost in court. If there was any evidence out there, it would have been heard by now. Both Ron DeSantis and Mike Pence agreed with Governor Kemp, which must have infuriated Trump. Disloyal!

The ballots were counted and recounted.

Georgia’s 2020 presidential election has been thoroughly examined and re-examined. The results were confirmed in three separate counts, include a hand count of the nearly 5 million ballots cast in the state. Under Attorney General Bill Barr, Trump’s own Justice Department looked allegations made by Trump. So did the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.

The best thing for Trump to do is to spend time playing golf and with his family. Let the lawyers do their thing. Trump should stop posting about the judges with personal attacks or about the indictments. None of that hyperbolic speech does him any good. He is potentially facing prison time. The Georgia trial will be televised, as it is a state criminal trial and allowed by Georgia law. Willis wants a circus and she wants to be the ringleader. The Fulton County sheriff said that Trump and his co-defendants will be treated as anyone else – fingerprinting and mug shots for everyone. Trump’s mug shot will be online in record time. It’s what the haters have been waiting for. That, and video of Trump in an orange jumpsuit. Stop making things easier for the prosecution.
