Trump Suddenly Talking About Being Charged Under The Insurrection Act [1]

For more context on this story you may want to read my article from yesterday, “Model Prosecution Memo Urges Trump Be Charged With Insurrection.”

Trump didn’t say much on Truth Social for almost a day, and then suddenly posted the above “Truth” not long ago. In the midst of his usual long, bogus complaints about how all the other kids did what he did, Trump seemingly out of the blue invokes the Insurrection Act.

Is he being charged under the Insurrection Act.

Wow. That’s in the middle of all the stuff about classified docs where Trump is being charged but not Biden or Obama or anyone. Does that suggest that Trump believes he is going to be charged under the Insurrection Act? Perhaps he received a target letter advising him that he should expect to be so charged.

Shortly later, Trump posted his standard complaint regarding the investigations into him, that they are election interference.

Is something going on here, or is Trump just being crazy?

I don’t know, but suddenly the chances of a charge of insurrection against Trump seem much stronger than they did when I wrote about it just a day ago.

Edit & Update

The buffoonery continues as Trump deleted the above tweet and substituted an identical tweet with one exception. It says “Espionage Act” instead of “Insurrection Act.”
