I think he was supported by a portion of the Deep State that we’d like to consider to be the white hats, but via Kushner especially you can see a straight and daily line to Israeli/Mossad and classic Deep State components for sure. Just look what he did with Covid and the tens of billions of funding and even military distribution level support for Gates’s de facto forced mRNA, microdot tagging, vaccines.
That is, I don’t rule out but that Kushner has been Trump’s “handler” all along. How close were the controls? We really can’t know.
Oh, and I still support Trump’s reelection success vehemently. He represents IMO a slower path to the global fascistic takeover of our country than the Biden/Harris route. But all reports have been that Jared and Ivanka, for example, have been trying to talk him out of putting up a fight for the election he rightly won. It sure looks as if only part of his team is in on his seizing his rightful second term.
