“Republicans ought to nationalize the voting,” Trump told former deputy FBI director and conservative commentator Dan Bongino on his radio show on Monday. “We have states that I won that show I didn’t win. …"
This shows how he thinks. He has no evidence he won, and cannot have evidence because he didn’t win. But a mind like Trump’s makes no distinction between what he wants the truth to be and what is the truth. There’s no room at all for the notion of being wrong, or the idea that you might need to find out the truth. If it would serve you for something to be true, then it is true. This is a deeply broken mind.
Faith-based, motivated reasoning, that is very often utterly delusional.
The exact opposite of critical thinking.
The conclusion is already known, the evidence and reasoning must be made to fit.
As opposed to… the evidence is known, the reasoning must lead to any potential conclusion, and when the body of evidence changes, this neccesitates revision of conclusions.
This is a very serious problem for way, way, waaaay more people than just Trump.
Trump just is his own God, as he is a malignant narcissist, but there are basically around 100 million people minimum in the US whose brains basically operate in this way.

It’s the mind of a spoiled child who’s never been told “no”.
Very familiar for anyone who had had a narcissist in their lifes.
