The Living Force
This certainly gets confusing. Some thoughts, even though I frankly have no idea yet what's going on (maybe others have followed the details more closely):
What we know, I think, is that
a) The election was indeed stolen, most likely using some computer-based manipulation, which is what the statistical analyses and "glitches" indicate. However, this evidence alone might not be enough to make a case in court.
b) The story about a Marxist conspiracy, spearheaded by Venezuela, to rig the elections, is utterly absurd. Besides, we don't have any real evidence for Smartmetric/Dominion etc. being the culprit (?).
So there are different options as to what's going on:
a) Trump, Powell and team just use the "foreign interference" meme as a powerful narrative/strategy, knowing full well that the real culprits are in the Deep State and that they probably are rigging elections for decades
b) They really do believe the foreign interference narrative. Either because they haven't figured it fully out, or they have been fed misinformation.
c) Powell and/or others in the team are "deep moles" of the Deep State and try to blow up the whole thing from within. (That's standard procedure for moles: do some good work, take over some responsibility, and then make sure the whole thing doesn't get anywhere or damage it beyond repair.)
I don't know really, but I find it strange is that Powell and team refuse to give at least some evidence that can't be dismissed so easily. They keep saying they will wait to present it in court, but somehow that doesn't make a lot of sense, especially in this situation where time is of the essence and the fight is as much in the public sphere as it is in the courts. But maybe I'm missing something here.
Perhaps we should look at it from a "by their fruits you shall know them" perspective. We have an emotionally charged Trump base that is willing to believe almost anything if it means that Trump might win. On the other hand, many conservatives are suspicious about Powell's claims, either because they "can't go there" or because they are missing the evidence. Result: a deep rift in the "anti-Deep-State-movement". Now imagine Powell's case doesn't get anywhere, which is likely at least in terms of the "Marxist Venezuela" story. That would totally crush the die-hard Trump fans. And perhaps forever banish the idea of large-scale voter fraud happening in the US.
So I can see how some Deep State people could come up with a plan to feed the Trump team misinformation and/or activate some "sleeper cell". Speaking of which, there are stories of such "sleeper cells" being activated in the course of the Covid scam, i.e. people previously unknown take over certain official positions, moles showing up in anti-covid movements etc. The Deep State is going "all-in", it seems.
Then again, there might be different factions at work here. And perhaps the ultimate goal is to crush people's spirits and manipulate those who potentially have some deeper values into total, helpless despair by creating endless hoopla and emotionally charged situations.
It's still possible though that Powell and team will eventually release the kraken and expose the Deep State fraud machine for all to see. Further twists and turns ahead, I'm sure!
Ultimately I don't think anyone outside the circles around Trump can know what the game plan is. We can speculate however until the cows come home.
Best to sit back, wait and see.
