 Of circular reasoning:

Trump spoke of Republicans telling him that he should look to the future instead of repeat his conspiracy theories about the election.

"I have been doing this stuff a long time. i am telling you, Trump said "the single biggest issue, the issue that gets the most pull, the most respect, the cheers is talking about the election fraud of the 2020 presidential election."

Trump went on to explain the size of his rallies proves he could not have lost.

“I say it because it’s popular and it’s popular because it’s true and because it’s true I say it.”

"Mitch McConnell said we have to get back to business. Mitch McConnell should have challenged that election," Trump said, even though he lost. Trump went on to allege that Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer would have challenged the election.

“We had plenty of material to challenge the election. He should have challenged the election. Schumer would have challenged the election." 

Evidence he was unable to present in 60 court cases but whatever.

 "Mitch McConnell did not have the courage to challenge the election. He is only a leader because he raises a lot of money and gives it to senators, that is his only form of leadership," Trump said. "He should have challenged the election." 

Because the whole purpose of government is to make Trump feel better.

A textbook example of narcissism. Or if not that, certainly this is:

The Justice Department did not want to do anything about it," Trump said of his own administration."

"Likewise, the Supreme Court refused to hear the case by Texas and almost twenty other states and now their approval rating is the lowest it's been in memory," Trump said. "The lowest approval rating in memory."

"I believe it's for the reason that they refused or did not have the courage — they rule against me all the time, all the time, very personal rulings — they did not have the courage to do something about the election, and I believe that's the real reason approval is so low," Trump said.

Three more years of this is going to get really dull.
