Team Trump relentless on saying media 'rigging' election but vows to accept results

Posted on 10/16/2016 5:38:19 PM PDT by RoosterRedux

The Donald Trump campaign on Sunday heaped more blame on the media, accusing news organizations of “rigging” the election for Democratic rival Hillary Clinton but vowing to accept the Nov. 8 results -- win or lose.

"We will absolutely accept the results of the election," Republican vice-presidential nominee Mike Pence said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Pence made the comment amid two polls Sunday that showed Clinton with a solid lead and as he and Trump resumed their attack on the media -- after essentially nine straight days of headlines related to Trump’s treatment of women over the past 30 years.

“The American people will speak,” Pence continued on NBC. “But (they) are tired of the obvious bias in the national media. That's where the sense of a rigged election goes here.”

Democratic vice-presidential nominee Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine told “Fox News Sunday”: “From the beginning, I’ve said this would be a very close campaign.”

A Washington Post-ABC News poll shows Clinton with a 47-to-43 percent lead over Trump, essentially unchanged, compared the groups’ earlier polls.

Exactly. I don`t take Pence`s comments as meaning they won`t challenge voter fraud. But if that IS what he means, then he`s wrong.

There’s media bias swaying voters unfairly, and then there are games with the mechanics of the polls.

I’m not going to accept her presidency.

I called BS on Obama. I didn’t accept his either. This is a land WROL right now, and it will continue under anyone else but Trump.

I declare this and her government as illegitimate and I refuse to live by their rules. I will crash the system whenever and wherever I can.

Saul Alinsky tactic works for any government.

Agreed. That`s the way I read it too. He`s adressing the former, but not the latter.

She barely does any rallies, she hides from any and all questions accept scripted ones, she has yet to distance herself from the imposter and his policies or even elaborate on her own if any, she avoids her rapist husbands accusers and the media follows her like lemmings of a cliff yet she has a commanding lead and they project her the winner, mind boggling

I tried to find where Pence said that Trump campaign will accept Nov. 8 results in video on referenced page and will have to look again.

Given that Trump is very vocal about the possibility of a rigged election, I am disturbed that Pence basically indicated that Trump campaign will give up without a fight, like Romney did, with respect to challenging possible voting problems, instead of fighting possible problems like Bush 43 did with Gore.

What am I overlooking?

Her magic is in the “war on women” ruse.

Sure, in a way Donald was stupid to have talked silliness about women (ever). HOWEVER, this is not where Donald’s heart is. The power of the devil is found in damnation; the power of God is found in redemption and blessing.

I see a second shoe (actually something more like a heavy hunting boot) ready to drop on Hillary.

Stay the course with prayer that truth will catch up with where the lies have been, sufficiently to erase Hillary’s assault of illusion.

The media is rigging the election

The media has caused 99% of the problems we have in America including imposing barack Hussein Obama on us.

We have to blanket Florida Ohio etc to help Trump combat the media lies. We have to take our country back and Make America Great Again!

A key part of the problem is the perilously short attention span of Americans.

The media learned over the years that with the new instruments of first radio and then television, which did not lend itself to easy review the way print media did, it could flash ruses and lies before the public and lead it around by the nose.

It’s a laziness and impatience problem and the only way it will be surmounted is for Americans to learn the virtues of transcending laziness and impatience.

This could yet happen with the situation of the Donald. I think that with some adroit advertising on Donald’s part, he could pull this off, and then the process of educating the American people to pay attention to the big picture can begin once more.

Sometimes God will let evil run it course because we do. We make agreements with it.

That’s an excellent observation.

We will not say no to the devil, so God lets us limp along saying yes until we either get tired of it, or commit ourselves to evil eternally.

Well if he does lose by a close margin then he had better not accept until every allegation of vote fraud has been investigated.

Hillary rigged the system to beat Bernie...and now with her accomplices in the media, Hillary is gaming the system to beat Trump.

If she wins there will be war.

I took it as a preemption: Trump is probably really ahead, so this a challenge to the other side. “See we will play fair and not dispute even though the election is rigged. How about you all doing the same when Mr. Trump wins?”

Trump’s rigged comments and Pence’s “we won’t dispute” are meant work hand-in-hand.

That was great! Very uplifting. When I checked it, it had only 59 views. All Trump supporters should watch it.
