Trump is right. The evidence of fraud has yet to be presented to the nation in an organized, focused, and comprehensive manner. A televised trial in the US Senate will provide the opportunity for Trump to make his case for fraud, and for Democrats and their media enablers to be exposed for stealing the election.
Once the televised trial is confirmed don’t be surprised if the Dems fold their tents and run for cover.

Which is precisely why the Senate has no intention of letting Trump into the chamber. They will label him a "sponsor of domestic terror" or something and say his attorneys can speak on his behalf, but Trump himself will not be allowed to testify in his own defense.

You are right. There's Navarro's excellent report here. I would love for Trump's one plus hour of defense to be just reading one by one the instances of fraud and the violation of Article II, Section 1, Clause 2 of the Constitution.

Testimony of witnesses and receiving of evidence does not usually occur before the whole Senate. Pursuant to “Rules of Procedure and Practice in the Senate When Sitting on Impeachment Trials,” Rule XI, that occurs before the select committee of 12.

Arguments are made before the whole Senate after the record of evidence and witnesses is provided to the main body by the committee of 12.

This Senate procedure was upheld by a unanimous Supreme Court in Nixon v. United States, 506 U.S. 224 (1993).
