'Insecure': Writer flags telltale signs that Trump fears he's vulnerable
Raw StoryThe size of Donald Trump’s election victory has left the president-elect and his allies “insecure,” a columnist wrote Thursday. “The claim was demonstrably ridiculous: He won a second term fair and square, but he clearly did not win by a margin unseen in 129 years,’” he wrote. “Trump suggested he was quoting someone else — a common rhetorical game he likes to play, giving him an out when his bogus claim is exposed as false,” Benen wrote. The incoming president and his sycophants, meanwhile, want at least to try to claim that he’s the one true voice of the nation and that policymakers have no choice but to obey the American Electoral Colossus.” He concluded, “Members of Team Trump are lying because the truth is too inconvenient to leave intact.”
