.MaddowBlog: The far-from-subtle point of the bizarre little gift Trump reportedly just gave to every House Republican: Trump isn't just lying, he's also lobbying.
Second, Trump's commitment to his election delusion is, if anything, intensifying. His signed note to GOP lawmakers referenced"facts" that simply don't exist outside of his imagination.
But stepping back, the larger significance is the far-from-subtle point of this little present: Trump isn't just lying, he's alsoThe deliveries to House Republicans was the former president's latest effort to not only flaunt his weird beliefs and strained relationship with reality, but also to encourage his GOP brethren to toe the line. His lies should be their lies. His conspiracy theories should be their conspiracy theories. His fights should be their fights.
In theory, Trump's political operation could've simply sent the book, letting its title and thesis speak for itself. But he included a conspiratorial note to remove any potential ambiguities. As Republicans on Capitol Hill focus their energies on Election Day 2022, the former president is effectively telling them to instead look backward — at an attack on democracy that only Trump can see,"facts" that only he's aware of, and an"assault" that only he perceives.
Politico quoted a House GOP staffer saying the delivery of the gift"just shows how Trump is continuing to pressure members/Republicans to embrace the Big Lie."
