he's testing whether his cult is still his cult. Only members of a cult will still vote for someone after a statements such as "I could shoot a man on 5th Avenue and not lose a single supporter". And a cult is the only group of people who will stand there and listen to a lie that obvious and applaud the liar after he says it. Trump is just soothing himself in the knowledge that yes, the cult is still a cult. His cult.

Cynthia Hughes, who runs a support group for J6ers, spoke at tonight's Trump rally. She told the story of her nephew Tim Cusanelli, a convicted Capitol rioter — and Nazi sympathizer, who said "Hitler should've finished the job." This is their poster child for J6 "injustice." /1

Trump claims the FBI searched 16-year-old Barron's room in Mar-a-Lago. Former prosecutor says that's unlikely, unless he stored government docs there.

• Trump claimed that the FBI searched his son's room during the Mar-a-Lago raid.
  But a former federal prosecutor dismissed Trump's claim, telling MSNBC that this seemed unlikely.
  Renato Mariotti said the FBI would only enter a room if they had "any reason to look for records there."

Former President Donald Trump claimed on Saturday that the FBI searched his 16-year-old son Barron's room at Mar-a-Lago last month.

In his first political rally since the August 8 raid, Trump attacked both the FBI and Justice Department, describing them as "vicious monsters" controlled by "radical left scoundrels, lawyers, and the media."

"They rifled through the first lady's closet drawers, and everything else," Trump told supporters in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.

"And even did a deep and ugly search of the room of my 16-year-old son — leaving everything they touched in far different condition than it was when they started. Can you believe it?"

A source close to Melania Trump said last month that the FBI had rifled through the former first lady's bedroom and closet at Mar-a-Lago, which "annoyed her" because she viewed it as a breach of privacy.

"She's private, and she's protective of her son and her home," an unnamed source told CNN. There have been no reports about the FBI searching Barron's room.

The locations to be searched include the "45 Office," all storage rooms, and all
other rooms or areas within the premises used or available to be used by FPOTUS and his staff and in which boxes or documents could be stored, including all structures or buildings on the estate. It does not include areas currently (i.e., at the time of the search) being occupied, rented, or used by third parties (such as Mar-a-Largo Members) and not otherwise used or available to be used by FPOTUS and his staff, such as private guest suites.

It might be considered a bit ambiguous whether Baron's room would be deemed a room "available to be used by" the former president. But since the core example of a third party room is a guest room, I would conclude that Baron's room was within the scope of the search. And Melania's room. As someone posted on twitter a while back, crooks have been known to hide contraband in their consorts' underwear drawers.

So, I hope they did search and if they conduct another search, they conduct a search of those particular rooms because documents will be found there. (Excuse will be Barron needed those documents for a school project).
Trump has no concept of what happens in real searches. They treated his place like the Sistine Chapel. I would love to see axes being taken to walls, you know, a real search.
