Dunno man, pattern seeking is the one thing we’re really good at. All aspects of it are on brand - including the likelihood that saying today that there are no plans to do so is absolutely unrelated to whether there are plans to do so.
I find the claim he will do this to be absolutely no less credible than the claim he will.
But, it doesn’t matter what I believe or what they say right now, he’s not in office. If he thinks it makes him more powerful to do so, he’ll do it when he gets in, regardless of what they are saying now and regardless of whether they are lying currently. I have no doubt of that.
believe every negative thing you hear about him/them without the slightest bit of scrutiny/skepticism?
Yes.
