I admit that I did not watch Meet The Press this morning as they could not have launched with a worse person to lie and ramble. However, CNN has a quick recap of what happened when new host Kristen Welker interviewed TFG.
Somehow, in his deranged brain, he figured now was a good time to admit to being the person behind what ultimately became an insurrection attempt.
“It was my decision, but I listened to some people,” [TFG] told NBC’s “Meet the Press” in an interview that aired Sunday.
...
“You know who I listen to? Myself. I saw what happened,” [TFG] said.
...
“You hire them, you’ve never met these people, you get a recommendation, they turn out to be RINOs, or they turn out to be not so good. In many cases, I didn’t respect them,” [TFG] said. “But I did respect others. I respected many others that said the election was rigged.”
We can go on and on about how he only hired the best people, but it turns out that now, he apparently never even met his own damn lawyers. And it's easy to deduce the ones he "respected". They are the ones that are indicted right along with him, including Cheseboro, Eastman, and Powell, to name a few. Those people, in his eyes, were "respectable".
Of course, all "respect" means to TFG is that you confirm his lies and delusions in exchange for... I'm not sure what they got out of this.
I can only imagine his current crop of soon-to-be-previous lawyers love this admission on a national stage, on TV no less. Even better, this is one of the many things he has pleaded “not guilty” to in court. Nothing quite says, “I’m innocent!” than admitting the exact opposite in an interview.
