BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: We have sound bites from Trump in Delaware, Ohio. He's still tweaking 'em. He said, "I don't want to be misunderstood. I promise I will accept the results of the election, if I win."
TRUMP: Ladies and gentlemen, I want to make a major announcement today. I would like to promise and pledge to all of my voters and supporters and to all of the people of the United States that I will totally accept the results of this great and historic presidential election, if I win.
CROWD: (cheers)
RUSH: Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Somebody call paramedics. Somebody get hold of the first responders. Call 9/11. The media's having vapors. They can't believe it. He's even joking. This man's ego so out of control, he's even joking about something as precious as our election and results. No sense of humor. No understanding at all of how Trump connects with his supporters, none. No understanding of that at all. That's the thing that really, really makes me laugh. After over a year they still don't know why Trump supporters support him, or if they do, they're just in a state of denial. He then laid out the corruption that he knows and we've all learned about in this campaign.
TRUMP: John Podesta, Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman, was quoted in WikiLeaks as saying illegal immigrants could vote as long as they have their driver's license.
CROWD: (booing)
TRUMP: What I'm saying is don't be naive, folks, don't be naive. One of the big issues that came up last night was the fact that the Clinton campaign has the paid people to disrupt violently our rallies and to incite absolute, total bedlam. This is criminal behavior that violates centuries of tradition of peaceful Democratic elections. A campaign like Clinton's that will incite violence is truly a campaign that will do anything to win.
Trump: I'll accept the election results 'if I win'
RUSH: By the way, something I noticed last night, she didn't deny all of this. All she said was (imitating Clinton), "It's the Russians, the Russians are trying to steal our election, the Russians are trying, I've never seen it before, the Russians are releasing emails, and it's not fair, it's not right." People bitching and moaning at Trump are actually at the same time complaining about a rigged election, and it's the Russians doing it, it's Putin. If I'm Putin I gotta be having the time of my life. I'm sitting there in the Kremlin smoking a cigar, having some vodka, and I'm watching the American Democrat Party give me credit for screwing them up.
"Yeah, the Russians, the Russians are interceding in the American election, the precious American election, it's never happened before."
They don't deny anything. Hillary didn't deny it when Trump even accused her of being behind all these imaginary women that came forward and said Trump was grabbing 'em and doing this and that to 'em. Didn't deny any of it. Didn't deny what was in the WikiLeaks. And Donna Brazile (imitating Brazile), "That stuff was produced by criminals. I'm being persecuted. I'm not answering that." For once these people are having to deal with the stuff they dish out and there are a lot of people celebrating that. There are a lot of people on Trump's side applauding that. It's worth it for that alone.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Now, I mentioned earlier that anybody in their right mind knows that Donald Trump was not promising a civil war. He was not promising to blow up the country. He was not promising to not accept the results if he lost. And these people know it, folks.
The people stirring this up know full well. And I know this because I know how they really know things I say when they act totally outraged and make a big two-week deal out of various things. They know. And here is Trump demonstrating it. This is from today in Delaware, Ohio, and you can't say it any better than this, exactly what he means.
TRUMP: I was asked a question about whether I would agree in advance to concede the results on election night if for some reason we should lose, which we're not going to lose.
CROWD: (cheers)
TRUMP: And that was sort of an unprecedented question. If Algore or George Bush had agreed three weeks before the election to concede the results and waived their right to a legal challenge or a recount, then there would be no Supreme Court case and no Gore vs. Bush or Bush vs. Gore, and there have been numerous other cases. In effect, I'm being asked to waive centuries of legal precedent designed to protect the voters. Of course I would accept a clear election result, but I would also reserve my right to contest or file a legal challenge in the case of a questionable result.
CROWD: (cheers)
RUSH: Of course. Why should he concede that? Why should he foreclose that? Why should anybody running against the Democrats foreclose that, given what has already happened in this cycle? Given what we've learned from the Project Veritas videos of James O'Keefe, given what we've learned from the WikiLeaks email dumps, consisting of things from John Podesta. Smart thing to do.
END TRANSCRIPT
Trump and Pence relationship is great.
Absolutely awesome! Don’t concede an inch to these twits.
Keep in mind that the political establishment craves power, money, and legitimacy. In about that order. They’re all inter-related. What DJT did was threaten the legitimacy aspect. And if by some chance victory is stolen, that becomes a rallying cry for the deplorables. (And not coincidentally, lessens the impact of a hitlery presidency.)
Gotta tell you folks, he’s got it.
Define “it” however you wish but Trump has found his stride, his message and his connection to the American people.
Saw that segment from Trump’s speech and let me tell you the crowd was going nuts and eating it up as he gave the Hillary media a big middle finger.
He’s going to fire on all cylinders and hopefully he hammers an economic message. There’s going to be a solid bump now no matter what the Hillary campaign I mean her media says IMHO.
The media constantly surprise me. Today the meme is all about how Trump won’t accept the election results. These same liberals were eager to see Al Gore challenge the results in 2000, and for Al Franken to challenge in court over his 2008 election.
So how can the liberals act so shocked when they backed Democrats who challenged disputed elections????
Man there are a couple of really great animated .gif’s at that zero hour Twitter account - including a really cool one of DT. Wish I could save the animated .gifs. Can’t right-click like the regular images.
“So how can the liberals act so shocked when they backed Democrats who challenged disputed elections????”
You already know the answer if you have ever had to deal with jackasses like this before, they are hypocrites.
It’s one of the many traits that helps to define if a person is a leftist.
The left started this by refusing to accept Bush v. Gore and Bush v. Kerry. [Okay, maybe we started it by refusing to believe Senate democrats acted in good faith when they refused to convict the perjurer of High Crimes, despite DNA evidence and the importance of respecting the rule of law.]
We continued it by refusing to accept the usurper seizing power as legitimate, questioning Barack Hussein’s so-called birth certificate, and otherwise questing that illegal alien’s eligibility for the position that vote fraud stole for him.
After this election, I’m certain the rejection of electoral legitimacy will continue. The seeds are already planted. If Hillary steals the election, as documented by Project Veritas, we will reject the reported results as the fraud they would be. If Trump wins legitimately, the thugs on the left will reject the result as a product of Russian meddling. Both charges are already out there in the mainstream. Either way, our country is way past the point when the losing side would graciously accept defeat, on either side.
The pathetic IRONY is that ALGORE contested the election results.
The DEMS totally own this concept of not accepting election results!!
And Algore wanted SELECTIVE RECOUNTS!
TRUMP needs to bring this up.
“When there are verifiable cases of major voter fraud, any candidate should have the integrity to contest it. JFK won the nomination because the Dems “found” 25K votes the next day after the election for JFK. So why are you asking a Republican this question?”
We have been so ‘pussified’
This is talk of a winner and not someone who is focused on losing.
I am doing all i can to win and not focus on losing.
D
Would have nice to hear that last night, Why would I concede now, if Gore had 3 weeks before the election...
Wonder if the Clinton whore in the media will play this today, or simply go on pretending to me mortified that Trump said “He may not accept the result of the election. OMG that unprecedented, it’s un-American”. That turd on Fox Shepard Smith nearly had a nervous break down.
So true.
McCain: “we have nothing to fear from a Barak Obama presidency”
Trump: “Zero chance I’ll quit”
If he had said to Chris Wallace the exact same words that he said in Ohio the Clinton Media would have ignored the addition "If I win" and would have reported Trump says he will concede.
The media is having the vapors. I think it’s hilarious.
I know. EVERYTHING they accuse their opponents of, they are actually the ones that are guilty of it.
He sure is playing them for the fools that they are
Liberals are those who have a divide in their mind between past and present. That divide is 'rationalization'.
