MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell was a guest at one of the rallies that Donald Trump held on Wednesday, and his performance wasn't exactly filled with truth. Lindell told the crowd that all the Democrats he's spoken to said that they are voting for Trump in this year's election. This isn't just a lie - it is a dangerous statement that gives people like Lindell and Trump cover to claim the election was stolen if they lose in November. 

Also, Donald Trump held two midwest rallies on Wednesday of this week, and it did not go well for him. He's clearly a little rusty from being stuck in a courtroom all day, because when the teleprompter broke down during his Michigan speech, he began ranting incoherently about the word "folks". Throughout the speech he was slurring his words and appeared confused at times, a sign that his mental health has sharply declined since his trial began.

And Marjorie Taylor Greene is moving forward with her effort to remove Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson, even though she admitted to Steve Bannon this week that no one in Congress likes the drama that she is creating. So she's self-aware enough to know that she's not liked, but she's too stubborn to change her course. And her Republican colleagues are not being shy about how unhappy they are with her antics as they continue to trash her in the media.

Finally, Donald Trump's legal team seems fairly convinced that their client is going to eventually be put behind bars by Judge Juan Merchan, so new reports say that the team is working on a "jailbreak" strategy to prevent that from happening. The strategy mostly involves filing emergency appeals with the higher courts, but that strategy is essentially the only legal option that they have at that point, so it isn't very good.
