They may know it. Doesn't matter though, because they don't care. All they want is the power to impose their socialist / communist agenda on the sheeple.
They FEAR Trump, not just because of his policies. They FEAR Trump because they know that this time around, he will hit the ground running with people who see things as he does, as opposed to the swampy RINO's that he was coerced into appointing to cabinet positions and key administrative posts last time.
They also FEAR Trump because they are worried that he will be vindictive towards them. Not just because as POTUS he *could* do all the un-American things that Demented Joe and his sycophants are doing to Trump, but because they know they have committed multiple crimes and it would be legally justified.
From everything I know about Trump, he wouldn't care about that. He's very forgiving and doesn't hold a vendetta. And if they could actually help him get something done, he'd welcome them with open arms.
We of course have not forgotten that he campaigned in 2016 on locking up HRC, but then did nothing to make it happen. With all these insane attacks on Trump, I think we can see the type of division that doing something like that would have caused, no matter how justified it clearly would have been. Sometimes we have to suck it up and do what's best for the country, even if a slimy, swampy politician like HRC wiggles off the hook.
