Correct and that is the problem with Smith's conspiracy case against Trump.
It can be easily explained away by the legal defense.
If Trump believed he truly did lose then his actions can't be considered as a conspiracy to overthrow an election.
The more I find out about Smith's cases against Trump the more holes I find in them that the defense can use.
They are not nearly as solid as the left thinks they are.
The Regime is advertising how badly they suck, and people dont stay stupid forever, eventually they figure out that they have been betrayed.
