So why did we do stop the steal? Why did anyone go to January 6th? Why is anyone sitting in jail? Why did anything bad happen to anybody? Why did everyone get censored? Why is everything bad that has happened to the people that are involved? Why did that need to happen? If you’re just going to walk it all back and say, “oh, I lost.”
Well, that would have been good to know that before 1600 people got charged! It would have been good to know that before I had all my money frozen, put out a no fly list, banned from everything, lost all banking and payment processing!
Would have been good to know that. Before I, you know, in 2017, dedicated my life to this as an 18 year old in college. Just feels like a big rip off!

      He’s legitimately upset that trump is admitting he lost.

      I don’t know anything about this guy but I don’t think it’s fake, he was 18 and believed some bullshit, he’s not the first, but this bullshit had a massive impact on his future. Trump doesn’t care how many lives he ruins, he just doesn’t.

        Don’t cry for Nick.

        He’s a grifter who latched onto the alt-right as his pool of marks. He’s a hateful bigot who is literally trying to create white supremacy.

        Trump didn’t ruin Nick’s life, Nick did.
