The broadcast news talking heads went into hysterics following Republican presidential contender Donald Trumps refusal to automatically concede on election night if it looks like the votes go against him. On CNN, the commentators proclaimed Trumps stance a threat to our democracy. All professed to have never heard such a statement at any previous presidential debate. Which is true because no other candidate was ever asked this question.
Whether Trump might have good reason to wait until he sees the election results for himself seems to be supported by several facts. On the one hand, there have been a number of pieces of evidence suggesting that fraud may play a significant role in deciding the outcome. The Wikileaks publication of DNC emails that detailed how the Democratic Party leadership rigged the primaries against Bernie Sanders is a veritable smoking gun from the current election cycle. The Veritas videos exposing DNC-financed efforts to commit fraud also make a compelling case for scrutinizing the returns.
On the other hand, there seems to be an ample opportunity to perpetrate fraud given the large number of invalid names on voter rolls. Nearly two million deceased persons are still registered to vote. Nearly three million persons are registered to vote in more than one state. Then theres Clinton campaign chairman John Podestas suggestion that non-citizens could use state-issued drivers licenses to register and vote. And leftist judges have voided state efforts to adopt voter ID requirements virtually everywhere except Indiana, where Democratic dirty tricks expert Scott Foval says its easy to cheat.
The same media that castigates Trumps reluctance to simply accept the November media-reported outcome as final hypocritically defended 2000 Democratic presidential candidate Vice-President Al Gores refusal to accept the reported outcome on election day. Instead, he embarked on a legal challenge that took over a month to resolve.
President Obama tried to put it all into perspective by characterizing Trumps objections as whining. Nothing different is going on now. Every other Republican has accepted the verdict on election day, even though GOP complaints about election shenanigans have always been part of the rhetoric. His inability to take it like a man is further proof of his unfitness. Im not surprised that genuine Republicans have universally condemned Trumps caterwauling and sought to distance themselves from him.
Whether Obama should have any credibility on this issue is in serious doubt. Bob Creamer, one of the architects of the long-running election fraud scheme uncovered by Project Veritas, visited the Obama White House more than 300 times and met with the President more than 40 times. However, Press Secretary Josh Earnest discounted the significance of these meetings because the President is not the kind of person who would condone the kind of dirty tricks of which Mr. Creamer is accused.
In related news, Ohio Governor John Kasich (R) called Trumps fear that the election could be rigged ridiculous. My good friend George Soros company owns about half of the voting machines that will be used and he assures me that the election will be fair.
