Trump Lawyers are now starting to claim the Cyber Security Contractors they are hiring who are NOT finding any evidence of 2020 Election Tampering are all in on the Plot and are part of the Conspiracy to steal 2020 from Trump
Let me say that again. The Trump Legal Team is now blaming Contractors who don't provide the Findings of Election Tampering they want them to find as being part of a conspiracy to steal the election from Trump.
Team Trump turns on contractor after it failed to bolster election conspiracy theory
In their pursuit of assorted election conspiracy theories, Donald Trump and his team have occasionally used outside contractors to lend a hand. After the president lost in 2020, for example, he hired the Berkeley Research Group to uncover evidence of widespread voter fraud and election irregularities. This
did not go well because there was no such evidence to find.
Trump then he hired Simpatico Software Systems,
which also failed to turn his fantasies into reality for the same reason.
This week, a third such example is coming into focus, though the reactions to this contractor’s findings have been a little different.
While Kurt Olsen’s name is probably unfamiliar to most Americans, he’s in a position the public ought to care about. The former Trump campaign lawyer and
prominent election denier was
brought onto the president’s team last year and given the title of “Director of Election Security and Integrity,” charged with
helping to prove Trump’s discredited conspiracy theories about his 2020 defeat.
Politico reported in February that the president has even directed top U.S. spy agencies to “share sensitive intelligence” with Olsen to help in his endeavors.
Reuters reported this week that Olsen and his colleagues set out to prove discredited conspiracy theories about Dominion Voting Systems machines, which he apparently suspected had been infected with some kind of malicious Venezuelan code. Trump administration officials even scrutinized Dominion machines in Puerto Rico, looking for evidence that never emerged.
Team Trump even tasked a cybersecurity contractor to help, but it, too, couldn’t uncover evidence that didn’t exist. Left with little choice, Olsen moved on.
No, I’m just kidding. Olsen seems to have decided instead to incorporate the cybersecurity contractor into his broader conspiracy theory. From the Reuters article:
According to the Reuters report, which has not been independently verified by MS NOW, the president “took Olsen’s deep-state allegations about Mojave seriously,” which should probably come as a surprise to no one.
The company said in a statement that Olsen’s Soros theory is “patently absurd and ridiculous,” and the article added that Mojave “opened its books to show it took no money from Soros.”
If the reporting is accurate, it offers a peek into an extraordinary worldview: When the evidence shows a conspiracy theory is wrong, then the evidence, by definition, must also be wrong — because the conspiracy theory must be right.
It also serves as a timely reminder that while Trump continues to peddle absurdities about his loss from nearly six years ago (as recently as Thursday, he
again said “they” are finding proof that the 2020 election was “totally rigged”), White House officials are doing a lot more than just
saying preposterous things. They also
doing preposterous things.
