Carl Bernstein warned President Trump may throw the election to the House of Representatives to decide in an attempt to hold onto office on CNN Monday night.
"We need a political and cultural protector in this country between now and Election Day from the president of the United States and his recklessness," Bernstein demanded.
"Everything is about the base, as he calls it, and getting the base to somehow re-elect him or get him close enough to reelection that he can then put into authoritarian practice, some kind of mechanism that will allow him to hold on to power, perhaps throw the election into the House of Representatives, which indeed is being talked about in the White House," Bernstein said.

CARL BERNSTEIN: I think we have to recognize that we have a national emergency unlike anything in our history. That national emergency is that we have a president of the United States who is demonstrably unfit, incompetent, not honest, and not capable of dealing with this horrible situation.We need a political and cultural protector in this country between now and Election Day from the president of the United States and his recklessness. People are dead because of his recklessness.
We need the political system to respond, which means Republicans particularly, because the Republicans on Capitol Hill as well as those who left the White House, they know he is not a stable individual. They have told dozens of people, they believe the president of the United States is out of control, that he is not fit to be the president of the United States.

Woodward and Bernstein were hoping Mark Felt would die so that they could craft the narrative that would be beneficial to the Watergate legacy. Unfortunately, Felt spilled the beans before he kicked the bucket. They lapped up everything Mark Felt excreted.
Don’t need a tie to put the election into the House.
Only need a third-party that keeps either of the two main candidates from getting 270.
I love the smell of panicking liberals flop sweating in the morning. It smells like ... victory!
The House that impeached him?
If the election goes to the House, each state gets one vote.
Trump carried 30 states in 2016.
As if the Ringo Starr of so-called journalists has a source inside the white house.
ya, the democrat house is sure to leave him in power..
Trumps not stupid and neither are we.
These commies are just throwing crap out their to stir up their lemming followers.
Yep, the same House that impeached him, in which each state gets one vote.
Exactly. The idea that the Trump would throw the election to the people who impeached is beyond ludicrous.
Only way that happens is if nobody gets to 270. That’s not going to happen.
Yeah, it was pretty reckless of him to procure that hospital ship and those ventilators, masks and other PPE for those hospitals in New York while Benito Coomo was shipping off old people to die in nursing homes.
Throw it to The House? What decade is Carl living in?
These people have truly damaged their minds they’re sick.
Are you certain?
