Diversity Makes Greatness
"In early December 2020, a truck driver working for a U.S. Postal Service contractor claimed that he drove a trailer full of ballots from New York to Lancaster in the weeks before the election. He said the trailer mysteriously disappeared after he parked it at the post office on Harrisburg Pike.
The driver, Jesse Morgan of York County, didn’t present any evidence to back up his claim.
Donoghue said he spoke directly with Trump about Morgan’s story and told him it was meritless.
“We looked at that allegation,” Donoghue told Trump. “We looked at both ends, the people who load the truck and the people who unload the truck. And again that allegation was not supported by the evidence.”"
Donoghue said Trump responded “okay” and then moved onto other fraud claims. Donoghue mentioned the Lancaster episode as an illustration of how even when Trump accepted that there was no evidence for a particular fraud claim, he would simply move on to another.
It was plain that Trump began with a false 'conclusion' and then looked for whatever he could find to prop it up, even though he knew it was wrong. He had been told it was wrong.
What did the president know and when did he know it?
He knew the truth and he knew it before he told the The Big Lie.
