I get the feeling this could be Trump's mindset.
He must know the deep state will assume he is running again, and that they will use every dirty trick to smear him if he runs again.
It would be a very Trump thing to do to not run again, and simply endorse whoever he wants to run on his behalf. It would completely throw the deep state off. They and the media could no longer go after the 'bad orange man'. His endorsement alone will send 75 million people to vote for that person.
My prediction is many State's election laws (that arent blue) will change thier election laws handing whoever Trump endorses, the biggest landslide win in history, as they will not be able to chat (as much as last time) again.
There's already an investigation being performed, and no evidence of insurrection has been found. This is dangerous because the "investigators" in Congress have never performed an investigation into insurrection before and are, therefore, unqualified to conduct such an investigation. The investigators have deep ties to criminality and election fraud and are part of an illegitimate government. Stop the sham investigation now.
FACT CHECK: A source close to the MAGA movement says all of the above statements are true.
