Trump referenced a Time Magazine article in his cpac speech. He said everyone should read it and apparently it deals with the election.
Does anyone know what he was referring to or if a link can be provided? Thanks

Thank you!
TIME Magazine: Claims a Secret Cabal Manipulated the 2020 Election to Stop Trump, and People Have Questions:
This seems like the sort of thing you don’t say out loud but, like a serial killer, many in politics are just too absorbed in their own egos to not try to take credit for their deeds.
TIME Magazine: wrote a very interesting piece making some very alarming claims. Namely, that a secret cabal banded together across the country to stop Donald Trump from winning re-election. This included everything from manipulating media coverage to getting election laws changed, at least according to TIME’s account.

If you had said this out loud on Twitter a few months ago, it would have gotten you banned. https://t.co/hub7XtzKfh

Yeah, this seems like a pretty big deal to me, and nakedly undemocratic, at least if you care about that sort of thing. Politics is inherently manipulative on some level, I suppose, but working to change election laws and quenching the flow of information to affect an election is a bit past your typical bluster on the stump.
Of course, none of this is especially groundbreaking to those who have been paying attention. For all the chatter about “dark money” and “interfering in elections,” it’s always been those on the left (and that includes the “right-wing” Chamber of Commerce mentioned here) who have had a no holds barred approach to winning. Given the control over popular culture, financial institutions, and political influence operations that the left wields, it’s hardly shocking they’d use every lever to defeat Trump.
Yet, the hypocrisy is still a bit much. We dealt with four years of hyperventilating about Russia and Facebook posts from anti-Trump forces, yet the reality of who is truly interfering in our elections hits much closer to home. The actions listed in the TIME article are also far, far more consequential and dangerous to free and fair elections.
I just want to say that it is the opposite of Democracy when a secret cabal of wealthy and politically connected elites conspire to manipulate the rules and laws of an election in order to win

No matter, this secret cabal isn’t made up of imaginary Russians so it’s all good. The left truly only care about election interference and manipulation when they deem it a threat to their own preferred outcomes. Otherwise, they are all for it. You won’t see the mainstream media decry this.
You won’t see a tearful lament from Nancy Pelosi about the dangers it poses to our republic. Rather, this will all be ignored. Heck, it’ll be celebrated as a brilliant political strategy.
While I’m sure some fact-checker will have qualms with me describing what this group did as manipulation, I believe the objective definition of that word more than applies here. When you seek to stop people from having information that could affect their vote, that’s manipulation. When you go and lobby to get certain laws changed specifically to help your side, that’s manipulation. It is what it is.
Meanwhile, Republicans can get in the game or get busy losing again.

Archive a copy before they take it down or edit it. They seem incredibly brazen, taking pride in crime.
Only a man can do what a man does and only a woman can do what a woman does ... God's plan, God's design and it works perfectly.

Try this one:
IGNORED BY MEDIA AND FBI: Antifa-BLM Activists Are Posting Photos and Bragging Online About Storming US Capitol on Jan. 6
I’ve got a hard-copy of the magazine.
The article contains a lot of names worthy of research.
Save for the reading and archive
Unfortunately for them, Trump outperformed all their expectations, and they compounded their conspiracy by elevating a zombie to the first puppet-state Resident of the United States.
TIME merely nicked the iceberg. What will come next, will be a nearly-full accounting of the fraud in Detroit and Atlanta metros; and unfortunately rather than this necessary national conversation spur Federal electoral reform, or perhaps the necesssary 28th Federal Model Elections Amendment, will instead be used to shove Xiden out of office.
Again, we now have problems that elections cannot solve.

“it works perfectly”
At least until insane progs think they can play God.
“Elections”? It is to laugh. In name only.
YES IT DOES..
