I remember three or four years ago. The common board explanation for all the misspelled tweets was it was an act so he would seem relatable to his base.

How could he NOT know that was coming after Russiagate and the Ukraine impeachment, which were clearly deep state setups?
With such a compelling argument full of logic and evidence, it's hard to believe I'm not convinced.

It’s really fascinating if you think about it. The self-anointed intelligentsia tell us ad nauseam what a fool Trump is, and yet they can’t get him. He outplays them at every turn. There’s a lot of stupidity in that equation, but it’s obviously not Trump.
I wouldn’t say that it is correct to say that Trump “outplays them at every turn”.
Whether you believe they were fair trials or not, the fact is that Trump currently owes $540 million in civil judgments.
Whether you believe they are legitimate or not, Trump is also subject to four separate criminal cases right now.
Now, you may argue that he will somehow use these legal cases in his favor to ultimately “outplay them”. But you would still be ignoring the fact that whether you accept the results of the 2020 election as legitimate or not, Donald Trump is not currently residing at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue as the President of the United States.

Why did he go through with J6 and get his people set up and potentially destroy his legacy?
please define what you mean - and be specific with your wording.
J6 is a calendar date - nobody can avoid that.
So, if there is some context other than "what everybody who watches MSNBC knows," please provide - for us illiterates.
BUT - be prepared to defend any cause/effect statement you make.
Please don't just drop a turd into the punchbowl and run.

First rule in avoiding a trap
Knowing of its existence.
Jan. 6 types should have understood this and not gone for the cheese.

Two points.
- I didn't really have a problem with Trump's initial election challenges. Wasn't the Supreme Court one that states' election procedures needed to be changed legislatively and not administratively? Whatever it was, once that was lost, he should have called off the dogs. Taking this to J6 was idiotic. What was the goal after that? Six month Cyber Ninja audits in the states in dispute? This board would have freaked out if Hilldawg did something like that in 2016.
- The rally was really stupid. Do Trump supporters have a right to protest? Sure. But, the way Trump summoned everybody gave the appearance some type of Kraken would be released. And all it did was get his supporters set up in a fed trap that he should have seen coming miles away after going through Russiagate and the Ukraine impeachment.
Conceding around Christmas would have been the real 8D MAGA chess move. He could continue to take the position it was rigged with millions of mail-ins pumped into the system, but that he is moving on for the benefit of the country and will work on election security/integrity.

What does "go through with J6" mean?
If he was smart, he'd have seen what a shite show it would have been and how badly it would have affected him negatively and told the people not to show up.
quote:
Does he not have a right to speak in front of his residence?
What does that have to do with this discussion?
The question is if giving that speed was smart or dumb, and it was clearly dumb.

Do you think he planned to overthrow the US government with an unarmed group of boomers?
No, but that's irrelevant to the conversation.

Simple. The election was fraudulent and was stolen.

Correct. What good was the rally on January 6 at that point? What tactile good could have come from it? There was basically 0 real benefit (only emotional/feelings and virtue signaling was available at that point).

And this is the interpretation most favorable to Trump.

We can assume that's true. '
There's still no reason for Trump to support the protests on January 6.
What tactile good could those protests lead to?

I do.
He does and says plenty of dumb stuff.
He does and says stuff that's not dumb as well. But his paranoid and extremely fragile ego prompts him to say and do lots of dumb stuff.
Dumbest guy I ever knew was a double board-certified medical specialist that I employed. Had to be smart academically to earn the credentials he earned, but he did the stupidest stuff of anybody I have ever seen, and he did it on a regular basis. And for the same reason as Trump.

Now I actually agree with that - I was in hopes he would do it.
HOWEVER - there were STILL hopes (unrealistic I know) that SOME rational court would ask some relevant questions =
= "What steps have been taken to audit the districts where there are logical allegations of fraudulence?
= "Has anything been done to actually examine the allegations being made?"
= "Is 'recounting the ballots" the only response to these allegations?"
= "Is the petitioner responsible for fulfilling the entire execution of a forensic AUDIT in order to establish the FACT that 'enough fraud was discovered to overturn the 'result'? - do we do that in murder allegations?"

Trump is not an ideologue. He's a problem solver who is addressing many of the problems that left/liberals have created through government.
