Fox News host Laura Ingraham says Trump needs to act with "grace and composure" if he loses election
CBS news ^

Fox News host Laura Ingraham has a message for President Donald Trump: If you lose the election, you should accept defeat with "grace and composure."

Following Joe Biden's speech Friday night, Ingraham appeared to prepare her viewers for Mr. Trump's loss and give counsel directly to the president himself. In a shift in messaging, the longtime supporter and early endorser of the president advised him to focus on the future of the country, not the potential defeat.

“ nope

he hasn’t lost

he’s been cheated

this isn’t 1960 and nixon

we already gave up a rigged election back then

not anotherone”

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

I read an article that a think tank ran a “war game” on exactly this scenario. It went through the courts and at the end the Constitution prevailed.

Patient, we’re gonna win. In the courts. AEB!

Laura is in on it too.

She is interested in money and kissing her bosses’ asses.

I suspect Tucker will throw in the towel too at some point and learn to live in a tyrannical leftist one-party country.

You accept your wallet being stolen with grace if the Police and Courts fail to redress your loss--unless you want to go vigilante.

And frankly, my assessment is that the President's chances of prevailing are growing slimmer. He needs allies--and they seem scant right now. If the courts provide no remedy, then it falls to the state legislatures. And if they punk out, maybe he can get it to the House. But if those avenues fail, then what? Surely you don't think that his Secret Service bodyguards will remain at his side if the House certifies Comrade Biden's election.

We have a long way to go yet.

NO.

If SCOTUS does not save the election and restore Trump’s win, we go to WAR.

That is what the 2nd Amendment is for.

To stop coups like the one we are in.

HE ALREADY WON! IF HE ISN’T SEATED IT IS BECAUSE IT IS STOLEN!

All caps aside, how do you know he won?

I am going to watch Judge Janeen tonight. She’ll probably walk off Fox tonight in disgust.

Man you’re floating this crazy crap all over this forum, huh? Sure, let’s give the Senate to Chuck and let him have two more states and 4-6 more supreme justices. GTFO

Well,she's correct if the LEGAL votes cast show Plugs as the winner then the President should step aside quietly.

Everyone talking loudly at this point about starting an armed insurrection needs to take some valium--or scotch.

There needs to be clear thinking about the chances of prevailing in that event.

I have been contemplating designing a war game about a Second American Civil War for several years now. And the loyalty of the American Armed Forces is one of the key variables--as well as the disposition of the National Guard.

If the bulk of the Armed Forces are loyal to the new regime, then armed insurrection cannot succeed in the short run unless several state governments are supportive of the counter-coup. And a failed counter-coup will provide political cover for the Hard Left to engage in political repression without a peep from squishy moderates. Remember, the bulk of the sheeple have not protested against the medical martial law of the past 7 months.

A lot of Freepers talk a good game. As an infantry officer and historian, I want a sober analysis of the chances of victory. And I don't see the popular support for an armed counter-coup at this point in time.

Poor Laura is weak and they will make her their first scalpe. Her radio show was great hopefully she can revise it.

(Trump needs) to act with "grace and composure" if he loses election

That's true what you say about her implication of her statement is Trump is a brute who would have to be escorted out of the White House kicking and screaming when she started her sentence (assuming these were really her words and not paraphrased by cBS) when she started the sentence with "Trump needs..."

That would be great, but I would rather see him hold a rally somewhere and draw a bigger audience than the inauguration. He could also announce his 2024 candidacy.

Obviously, IF he loses, he should concede graciously...and I’m sure he would...

But WTF is she thinking - saying this NOW?
When it is still being counted?
When it is being challenged in the courts?

When it is being lied about by the fake news to favor Biden?
When it is SO important to establish a narrative that there are LEGITIMATE questions of validity?

Laura - you really blew it - saying this Captain Obvious shit about graciousness now, when what we really need is to be on a war footing.
