An Unsworn Affidavit aka “The Italian Job”

Besides, as the vilest Writer has his Readers, so the greatest Liar has his Believers; and it often happens, that if a Lie be believ’d only for an Hour, it has done its Work, and there is no farther occasion for it.

You may have seen this Affidavit on Facebook. It purports to document the fact that swing state votes were switched from Donald Trump to Joe Biden so that #45 could be defeated. This is so amateur of a production that even I saw through it immediately.

I would suggest that you read this critical analysis of the ‘story’ before buying into its lies. (Notice that one of the videos has already been taken down.)

So, Why Bother?

It seems to me that when the people of a country don’t have any faith in their electoral system, you’re already halfway there to making them believe that a voter fraud has taken place. All you need is the ‘proof’. Even before the Presidential election in 2016, Trump was suggesting that if he lost, the other side will have cheated somehow.

With opposition coming from all sides during his tenure, Trump repeated this same fiction for months before the November 3rd vote in 2020. That’s paranoia at its worst.

Remember, Trump has Mars conjunct his Ascendant, but it sits in the 12th House of his birth chart: in astrology shorthand, it means he feels defeated before he even starts…
