Same line of BS they forced on him to pledge not to run as an independent. When they’d use it as nothing but a means to crawl fish him.
Given Clinton’s history of courting the media, it appears that she sends out blast emails to her media minions with her talking points and script. How, otherwise, to they continue to say the same thing(s)?
It won’t hurt him with the people who are going to vote for him anyway. It *might* be of use to the Democrats to fire up their base for the House and Senate races, but probably not.
"No matter what happens, will you act a certain way three weeks from now?"
Of course I wouldn't answer the question. Especially if I knew that it would get thrown back in my face.
Trump put them on notice that he will be on the alert for vote fraud and ballot box chicanery.
Hillary Clinton may have ALREADY done something so egregious that he should not accept the results because the result would be fraudulent.
If the Democratic Party has so badly compromised the election process that the results are fraudulent, then a patriot would NOT accept the results and would engage the people in a process that corrects the problem, which would not involve court cases and rulings by corrupt judges in on the game. We have no republic if the election system is compromised as much as I think it is.
Remember, in most of the world there are relatively few usage for early voting and there are tough proof of identification requirements just to vote (India is a good example of this). The USA should have the same diligence.
As an experienced negotiator trump gave the correct answer. Never volunteer for any blanket commitment.
BINGO
So Trump’s response means the media cannot help but cover the real and credible indications of potential for voter fraud being carried out by Democrats across this country - from now to the election...while Trump’s campaign hopefully stays focused on the big issues. Now, tell me how that is bad for Trump. Seems to me like he suckered them once again.
I believe you folks are right. He has now focused attention on voter fraud as an issue. The media stepped in it big time. EITHER cover and see what is going on, or implicitly support the Democrats in stealing the election. ROFL.
I never saw you before, Ref, but I surely do appreciate your thinking ....
THIS is why I come to FR
Where else can you get reasoned opinions ... and some pretty good arguments, too ?
“Democrats have been whining for 16 years, they are still writing articles about how Bush stole the elections in 2000 and 2004. So this holier than though attitude about, “this is the first time anyone has suggested that the election is not a sacrosanct process,” it’s a joke. So you guys bathe in that hypocrisy if you want to, I’d just like to hear how the debate went. Go ahead, bathe.” -Joe Scarborough
To agree, in advance, to accept the election results without condition is to sanction and sanitize fraud. The left has signaled its intention to steal the election and dares anyone to stop them.
Trump hates to be boxed in and that’s what they were trying to do. I would simply have given a non-answer answer such as “I will fight to the end”.
Nope they dug out another lady from 1998 today. She will be the story tomorrow Hombre!-)
CNN.com headline reads:
I’ll accept the results ‘if I win’
‘if I win’ in quotes.
Trump said no such thing.
