So he couldn't present the evidence in court to exonerate himself, but it magically appears after the fact for a press conference.... Interesting
The proof in court wouldn't exonerate him. Even if the election was rigged against him, he can't do illegal things the take it back.
Very true. Ok updated sentiment
Exactly. Assuming that he actually has proof (big reach), then he would have had to know it before he started doing illegal stuff in 2020. Even then, the obvious question would be why didn't he go through the courts to fight it? Of course, he did and lost every time. This means that even if he does have proof now, he didn't have it when he was trying to steal the election "back" or he would have presented his proof then.
I'm not expecting any real evidence to be shown in this press conference. It will be an obvious attempt to induce rage in his base to distract from the facts presented in court.
