“Fix 2020, FIRST!”

Donald Trump on September 4, Saturday of Labor Day Weekend.

Amidst some publishing software issues, we are putting up two separate posts/columns on this one simple Trump statement, in part because the statement itself is so beguiling. But we would also be remiss if we didn’t note that our divergent track analysis this morning got thrown into chaos when both were published as an amalgamation, and an unrefined one, at that. It is fixed.

But there shouldn’t be any confusion about Trump’s message, it’s his job to make it clear what he’s talking about. It is so bizarre, even for him, so random, that it’s potentially dangerous or, if not, certainly the most laugh-worthy “statement-tweet” in a long time.

We damn well want to know the message behind the message today. As we’ve previously explained, this could easily be considered marching orders for the MAGAs next scheduled protest, September 18th, which is exactly two weeks from today (Saturday). That concern is now covered in an article already published here.

The MAGAs are marching for “political prisoners” (the rioters held in jail), is Trump saying “Fix 2020 first, before you worry about those losers.”

Now we should dive into the other strong possibility, that Trump is wallowing in self-pity on a three-day weekend in which most of the country is either working to dig out or “out” enjoying their family and friends. We hear guarantees that he’ll run again in 2024. How does a man run in 2024 when he’s focused on 2020? It doesn’t matter who it is, a presidential nominee must present some kind of vision, not retribution.

But is Trump capable? If the statement is just a “reminder” to everyone that 2020 was a “fraud” (this week, a video of Ron Johnson leaked, in which he admitted Trump lost and it was his fault). Perhaps with the delta variant, the storms, Afghanistan, the awful Texas situation, and the economy, perhaps Trump is worried that his cry and injury will get left behind? People do seem to be moving on…

But not the people planning September 18th… We should ask Twitter, take a survey of replies. Replies will require one to scroll to the bottom of each reply. We will first post the September 18th general information:

Supporters who call Jan 6 defendants “political prisoners” plan to rally in Washington on Sept 18. What could possibly go wrong? I’ll discuss it with ⁦@AliVelshi⁩ at 9:50 am on @MSNBC. https://t.co/rGiAe17H3Q

So that’s the original concern. Now we look at non-specialists. They are reading this as a pathetic reminder, narcissistic injury:

Shouldn’t it read Ex-President
Sorry to tell you
But
You Lost
I thank the lord
Everyday since your gone from the Whitehouse
Daddy made your money but
You were a loser in AC
You’re a loser in real estate
You lost the election
See a pattern here
Once a loser
Always a loser

We did. We voted the 🍊 🤡 out of office. If only we’d done it 4 years earlier we wouldn’t be where we are now. So much losing. Lost the election then lost his mind. Aren’t you tired of all the losing Liz?

“FIX 2020 FIRST!” should mean the lies, incompetence, & narcissism which led to hundreds of thousands of Americans dying, but Trump isn’t America First, he is always Trump first https://t.co/vHZjEFGYrQ

Don't worry, Rudy and the Kraken woman are on it. Your Pillow Man is going to release proof of something in Two Weeks. Jenna has this! Don't worry, Mr President, some of the best free disbarred lawyers in the US are lining up to take your case! Can Czar Jared do lawyering?

There are many more. We don’t see anyone relating this tweet to September 18th incitement, which means we’re either top fraction geniuses or we just gave Trump way too much credit for something that can be explained with the usual Trump motivator, “Don’t forget this is all about ME!”

Still, 2 weeks exactly prior to a march for prisoners? Focus on 2020 first, not 2021? Very tough to tell, but we hope law enforcement organizations are going over this carefully and watching how it’s taken on Facebook and Parler.
