Last summer, for example, after the bipartisan Jan. 6 committee released its findings, Trump issued a 12-page report that he claimed offered proof of election “cheating.” In reality, it was an embarrassing rehash of discredited nonsense the Republican had peddled before.

A Washington Post analysis added soon after, “The former president released a 12-page document articulating something of a greatest-hits collection for his long-standing crusade against reality. Peppered with the expected pejoratives against the Jan. 6 committee, it’s revealing not for what it says about the election but for what it says about Trump. Even now, 19 months after the election, he demonstrates no ability to discern fact from fiction about the election results but also shows no interest in trying to draw such a distinction.”

That was 14 months ago. Now we’re supposed to believe that while the first “report” was a dud, the sequel will be so amazing that it’ll undo multiple criminal indictments.

This is absurd. Trump will unveil evidence that bolsters his election conspiracy theories right around the time he unveils his comprehensive plan to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act.
