Fox News sources: Trump will 'graciously concede' if he sees no viable path to victory
Washington Examiner ^

Posted on 11/07/2020 4:25:34 PM PST by springwater13

The president and his team will "spend a period of time challenging what has gone on here in the last few days to ensure that there is transparency in terms of counting the votes," Roberts said. "I’m told that, you know, in addition to the president wanting to see this done, the president is really being supported and being pushed to some degree by his family who want to make sure every legal vote was counted and that no illegal votes were counted."

Roberts stressed that the process could take a number of days, but after that period of time, he was told that if the president "does not see a path to continuing in as the president of the United States, he will graciously concede and work on a peaceful and appropriate transfer of power. Those were the words that were given to me."

First, Trump's legal team plans to file multiple lawsuits on Monday, "claiming that there was not transparency in the vote-counting and that because of that, they do not know if any illegal votes got through," Roberts said.

All the networks are cutting to a speech Biden will make as he addresses the nation.

What they are doing is trying to gin up some kind of national hysteria they think will make Trump quit and leave the White House before he can expose the fraud.

Not true. The whole electoral process is outside criminal law.

In 1876, the joint commission members were convinced that enough freedmen had been denied their vote that they awarded the electoral votes to Hayes.

This is a case of proving it to the state legislators, who then accept whichever slate of electors they think won fairly.

Maybe SCOTUS will rule that way. It won’t be completed by January. What would happen then?

So maybe we need to email WhiteHouse and let Pres know we don’t want him to concede?

Never liked Roberts...not trustworthy IMHO

Said Reince Priebus and his crew were negligent on election night, not getting ahold of how many ballots were out, and assured Trump he had WI. They literally went to bed.

I didn't realize that skunk Priebus was a part of Trump's team this time around. This would explain a lot in terms of Team Trump's slow response on election night.

I’m betting that’s why the new push to declare, have speeches, rallies etc right now. By Biden and the networks I mean.

They act like THEY really decide who has won.

Oughta be illegal.

He should walk only if he has truly lost and there is no legal path in the courts; but just don’t see him abandoning ship. He set out to do a job and will continue to work until there is no remaining time to do so. Thanks, LS, it’s not over yet. The subsequent inaugural will be more largely attended than the first.

I would hope that Pres Trump handles this, win or lose, by exposing all that has been hanging over him and us for the entirety of his presidency. Hang the traitors out to dry. Not a thing to lose at this time.I totally agree with your post. Nothing gracious about anything involving the commie democrat party or their followers. A pox on all of them.

Yeah, I saw that. They are already pushing Heels up front and center. Way out of the normal VP role. The weirdness has started.

Trump isn’t going to lose if this is stolen. We have the truth on our side. The thieving Democrats and the Vichy Republicans never will.

The Deep State is trying to exert maximum pressure without violence and to get cabinet members to resign. They want Trump isolated when they get violent.

1. Recounts
>Georgia has a recount
>Pennsylvania has a recount
>Nevada has a recount
>Wisconsin has a recount
>Michigan has a recount
>Arizona has a recount

The problem is that I have never heard of a recount overturning an election where the margin was larger than a few hundred votes. You're talking about thousands of votes in these states.

“but about saving the PROCESS, because if we let this go there will never be another free election.”

That’s the worst part - the evildoers will have been rewarded. All that will do is encourage them even more for the next time.

I was thinking about what you wrote earlier, about Trump & family being hounded, sued, charged if this doesnt work - I’m sure he knows the risks and they probably already have plans of where to relocate to. I just hope he’s very careful thinking about the location, because 70 million of us will want to follow him. I sure the heck don’t want to stay here in a third world Banana Republic.

Sure. Playing on ignorance that the “media” get to name the president.

BTW, how about this? Trump only lost NY by 12 points. Margin in NY lower than in NJ, MD.
