But I think your best case scenario is the more likely scenario, and it's


more nuanced than that. He's not just doing it to drive 'LIBBRULS" crazy, that's not the end game... it's that the act of driving "LIBBRULS" crazy, well drives liberals crazy and leads to all sorts of crazy accusations against Trump by liberals which reinforces his "fake news" narrative with his base and makes him pretty much immune to anything that can be thrown at him... at least with his base. He's also a stubborn egomaniac and doesn't like anyone telling him what to do, so his knee-jerk reaction is going to be to do opposite of what he feels pressured to do. And his opposition to the FBI investigation is just pure self serving egotism. Any admission that Russia interfered in the elections to Trump's favor would minimize his monumental victory, which was the greatest presidential victory in history, believe me.

None of this is to say this scenario is not also a terrible outcome, but I do think it's the more likely outcome than him actually being a Manchurian candidate.
