Ever devoted to seeking power and attention, former President Donald Trump has announced he'll hold a rally January 15 in Arizona, a key state where his allies used lies about widespread voter fraud to contest the 2020 election results.

At a moment when the nation needs healing more than anything else, he seems determined to tear it apart.
