Why Trump is looking for revenge and retribution? [View all]
First of all, I am not a psychologist. But I have witnessed Trump's brain in action for the last 10 years, so I feel I am qualified to speak on the matter.
He is not really seeking revenge or retribution. He is looking to keep his legacy from being permanently destroyed by his actions of January 6th, 2021. He is seeking justification and innocence from factual history.
He says he would like to see those on the January 6th Committee sent to jail. He is attempting to reinforce his lie that he was not guilty of anything on January 6th. He wants the majority of Americans to agree with him.
Because if he can pardon all the perpetrators of violence and insurrection on that day, then he is in effect, pardoning himself. Nobody did anything wrong. They were victims of a weaponized justice department and he also, was a victim.
But the truth is that any legacy that he may have dreamed about has been destroyed forever. His acts can never be forgiven. His treason is etched in stone.
