Because Trump likes to hold rallies for his base. He's a rally holding, campaigning machine. And apparently from what I've read, a 1/3 of the country believes that the 2020 election was stolen from him and in that case, those "Stop The Steal" rallies are justified.

And as more evidence comes out, I bet it's now more than a 1/3rd..

There hasn't been any evidence anywhere close to the magnitude required for the allegations to be believable. 

The only reason 1/3 believes it was stolen is because 1/3 of the country would believe literally anything he said often enough.  Prove me wrong.  Is there something, anything that Trump has repeatedly and consistently said that you think is not actually true?

But I do agree with you about one thing, if anyone actually is trying to steal or ignore an election result, if there is ample evidence of it, massive protests are required to resist it.
