Trump spoke about it for ~5 minutes during his interview with Larry Kudlow this afternoon. The rest of the interview discussed the economy. Good interview. Surprised nobody is talking about Kudlow’s interview with him.

True, it’s better if he stops the loose cannon grandiose garbage and keeps things quiet in court only.

“his attorneys would put his arguments in court filings instead. “
Sounds like a better strategy.

In fact, announcing that he has lots of ammunition and then withholding it is very smart.
To: GulliverSwift
Which Trump is not known for doing.

Good. With all these charges against him, this is not the time to try this in the court of public opinion.

The jury will not be 12 people in Atlanta, the jury is 300 million Americans and we are the jury Trump speaks.
Hold the press conference, Mr. President.
We stand with you.

It is worse than mess. It is a disaster. for us. I understand that the fools don't care. But when they dispose of him, they are coming after us with both barrels blazing. In all their fury.
President Trump was not always their enemy. We were. Before he decided to run for President and beat their goddess, Hillary Roddam Clinton, he was their hero. We were their enemy. But when he ran for President and defeated the, to use the term loosely, woman they worshiped he committed the unpardonable sin, he had to go down. So their anger, ire, and wrath focused on him. They know he has to be dealt with before they deal with us. They also that, for them to construct their dream World of drones and slaves we have to go. The fools, never Trumpers, and Trump haters [one and the same] will fit right in.

Former U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday he had canceled a press conference scheduled for next week to release a report into the 2020 election in Georgia, saying his attorneys would put his arguments in court filings instead.
Smart - finally. If he has evidence, he should present it in court.

An attorney on the radio said she should not have the press conference.
This was probably his legal team that decided taking it public was a bad idea.

What's happened every day starting with Election Day 2020 has been a disaster for all of us. But Trump saving any findings he has for the courtroom is not a disaster - he is facing serious charges which must be defended against. If he has evidence to support his claims of election fraud, that evidence will still be presented - we will all hear about it then, and it will be used in his defense.
Trotting this out in a meaningless press event would have accomplished nothing.
To: Alter Kaker
Good move save the evidence for the trial glad he listened to his lawyers this would have been a very bad idea if just one piece of evidence trump showed would have been discredited it would make it all look bad
To: Golden Eagle
“And here I was, thinking he might finally make his case, conclusively.”
His case was made, conclusively, years ago. Anything he could possibly say or do now would be redundant. And pissing into the wind. It would make no difference in the whole scheme of things.
