I didn’t pay much attention to Haberman’s tweet earlier in the week because she often tweets stuff like this and Trump’s people just call it “fake news” and the news cycle moves on. However, this is now being picked up by multiple sources.
The scale of Trump’s delusion is quite startling. This is not merely an eccentric interpretation of the facts or an interesting foible, nor is it an irrelevant example of anguished post-presidency chatter. It is a rejection of reality, a rejection of law, and, ultimately, a rejection of the entire system of American government. There is no Reinstatement Clause within the United States Constitution. Hell, there is nothing even approximating a Reinstatement Clause within the United States Constitution. The election has been certified, Joe Biden is the president, and, until 2024, that is all there is to it. It does not matter what one’s view of Trump is. It does not matter whether one voted for or against Trump. It does not matter whether one views Trump’s role within the Republican Party favorably or unfavorably. We are talking here about cold, hard, neutral facts that obtain irrespective of one’s preferences; it is not too much to ask that the former head of the executive branch should understand them.

Maggie Haberman Is Right | National Review
Donald Trump really does believe that he, along with two former GOP senators, will be ‘reinstated’ to office this summer.
