The more I think about it, the more I'm certain Trump and team are mobilizing for something massive.
If Donald Trump truly had been defeated in this struggle, would you expect him to just quietly sulk off into the night, with his tail between his legs? Hell no! He'd absolutely fight, one way or another, to get his words out. He'd create new media platforms as soon as the old ones are taken down. He would've started this by joining Gab or Parler after the Twitter ban. Donald Trump would not stay silent - he would be there for his supporters, his nation, and fight until his dying breath - whenever his deep state assassins get to him.
What he seems to be doing now - the pseudo-concessions, the lack of public appearances - simply do not accord with his character. The silence is deafening, and that's how you tell something's definitely up. "Stay tuned."
Been saying this to my friends too. Why hold the biggest rally ever on the 6th if he knew it was over? He wouldn't do that to us. All is well.
Devil's advocate would say because he thought Pence would follow through on the 6th, or perhaps to put pressure on Pence to do the right thing.
But I'm sure there's something else going on, it might have been a 4D chess move to get military in DC for this moment.
Or Pence did exactly what Trump wanted him to do. We will all know soon.
