The outtakes from Trump’s 1/7 speech show that he wasn’t as good on camera as he pretended to be, and he refused to say that the election was over.

Here are some quotes from the outtakes:
Trump didn’t seem to want to be too hard on his supporters, “I would like to begin by addressing the heinous attack yesterday, and to those who broke the law, you will pay. You do not represent our movement. You do not represent our country. And if you broke the law — you can’t say that. I’m not — I already said you will pay.”
Trump did not want to say that the election was over, “The demonstrators who infiltrated the capitol have defied the seat — defiled, right? See, I can’t see it very well. I’m going to do this. Let’s go. But this election is now over. Congress has certified the results. I don’t want to say the election is over. I just want to say congress has certified the results without saying the election’s over, okay?”
Trump couldn’t say the word yesterday, “I didn’t say over, so let me see. Go to the paragraph before. Okay? I would like to begin by addressing the heinous attack yesterday. “Yesterday” is a hard word for me. Take out the word “Yesterday” because it doesn’t work. On our country. Want to say on our country? My only goal was to ensure the integrity of the vote. My only goal was to ensure the integrity of the vote.”
Trump’s speeches had to be taped by the end of his presidency because he could not handle any questions from reporters, and he had become so unstable that his staff didn’t trust him in front of a live microphone.
Donald Trump couldn’t admit that the election was over even after the 1/6 attack. The outtakes show that Trump isn’t the master communicator that he thinks he is and that he mentally could not acknowledge the reality that he lost the election.
The outtakes show the real Donald Trump, and what should be enlightening to the Department of Justice is the video of Trump keeping the lie going that the election was not over while also refusing to admit that he would no longer be able to stay in power.
