Blaming his lawyers does not sound like a good defense when the indictment states all the reliable lawyers and advisors that told him that there was no voter fraud and and to stop the big lie.

He went advice shopping for lawyers, but he had claimed way before the elections that if he loses, it can only be through fraud and these are from his public statements. He cannot hide from that and his current lawyers are hoping to brainwash potential jurors.

The 9 most notable comments Trump has made about accepting the election results

Quote:
Sept. 13, during a Nevada campaign rally

“The Democrats are trying to rig this election because that’s the only way they’re going to win,” he said.

Aug. 24, during his Republican National Convention acceptance speech

“The only way they can take this election away from us is if this is a rigged election,” Trump said.

Aug. 17, at a rally in Wisconsin

“The only way we’re going to lose this election is if the election is rigged, remember that,” Trump said. “It’s the only way we’re going to lose this election. So we have to be careful.“

“The only way they’re going to win is that way, and we can’t let that happen.”

I think the strategy is Roger Stone advised.

From Sept. 2020 (after he was pardoned by TFG)

Quote:
Citing widely debunked claims of fraud around early voting, absentee balloting and voting by mail, Stone told Jones Trump should consider invoking the Insurrection Act and arresting the Clintons, former Senate majority leader Harry Reid, Zuckerberg, Tim Cook of Apple and “anybody else who can be proven to be involved in illegal activity”.
Quote:
He also said: “The ballots in Nevada on election night should be seized by federal marshals and taken from the state. They are completely corrupted. No votes should be counted from the state of Nevada if that turns out to be the provable case. Send federal marshals to the Clark county board of elections, Mr President!”
Like CA and OR (states I have lived in), NV my new home state is also allows Mail balloting, which the Reepugnants hate. IMO, Stone and Miller are two of the Nazis in Trump's inner circle.

That's some third-world, banana republican shit right there. I wonder what he would have suggested for the resulting protests?
