What you mean this former General, an officer and a gentleman, knowingly told a lie just to get elected? I don’t believe it.

I left off one important part of the “go-to” of the Right:
Self-serving symbiotic emotion of the politician and the voter, often detached from policy
We can espouse policy such as those touted in Biden’s legislative agenda, but raw emotion can sway some voters more than this…and that is unfortunate, because the policies of FDR made a difference for millions… and the Right Wing hate of the 1930s American fascists exist as guides, not benefits.

The TFG corollary: Even if the truth will do, lie anyway.

“The narrative that the election was stolen-it does not fly up here in New Hampshire for whatever reason,” Bolduc said.
This guy is using us. We know it. He isn’t savvy enough to run up here.
Bolduc is a military guy in a state of paranoia very different from the state of New Hampshire. Embarrassing.
The Republicans are spending a lot on advertising to scare our ever plentiful low-information voters. They make Maggie look tired.
Maggie works hard, ducks the spotlight. The GOP’s ads reinforce her worker-bee image. Maggie’s working hard for New Hampshire. That’s why she gets tired. She does the job. Bolduc blows smoke.
I think there’ll be a few more women and young people than usual voting in Roevember,
but not for Bolduc.

he’d come to realize that the 2020 election wasn’t stolen . . . there was significant fraud and it needs to be fixed
There was significant fraud but it wasn’t good enough to steal the election, which is why we have to “make it Better better better better better better, oh.” (h/t Lennon and McCartney)

Damn CNN that’s a lot words in 2:02 minutes, without saying much except Kise is not leading the defense.

That comes from years and years of loudly talking crazy ass shit at the end of a bar & assuming that since nobody said anything to them (because nobody wanted to argue with an asshole) that nobody heard them.

I would even dispute the use of the term "significant’ because that presumes it had an impact on the vote. I like the way AG Barr put it, when he said "to date, we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have effected a different outcome in the election.”

Or that Trump expects him to lie to the court. Or that he’s looked at the evidence and said, “there’s no way to defend this.”
I’m intrigued by the payment up front. He’s obviously not a dumbass like all his other “attorneys.” I imagine he’ll be redeployed to one of the many other legal fronts - or will we never hear from him again?

Former generals like Bolduc and Flynn are a disgrace to the uniform. Their oath to uphold the Constitution meant absolutely nothing to them.

Wonder if he thinks the damage to his reputation was worth it.

Consider that Trump is keeping the Lolyers. Arguably, Kise was the only smart and rational one among them and nothing will do you in with Trump more than telling him things he doesn’t want to hear and shouldn’t do.
