Will Democrats accept election loss? New report says no.

When the political elite play games, who knows what will happen.    Clearly the Democrats have yet to accept the results of 2016, but for some reason it is only Trump that is asked the question about accepting the results.  Unlike the past three Democrat presidents, Trump actually has something to go back to if he in fact loses, but if that happens, maybe he will follow the script Obama ran during the transition.
 

 

Will Democrats accept election loss? New report says no.

For weeks, there have been news reports and commentary on whether President Trump will "accept" the results of November's election. The president started it on July 19 when he was asked, on Fox News Sunday, "Can you give a direct answer you will accept the election?"

"I have to see," Trump said. "I have to see. No, I'm not going to just say yes. I'm not going to say no, and I didn't last time, either."

The answer set off a long trail of headlines: "Trump declines to say whether he will accept November election." "Trump won't commit to accepting result if he loses election." "Trump not ready to commit to election results if he loses." The president has continued to stir the pot since then, most notably with a tweet asking whether, because of potential problems with voting by mail, the Nov. 3 election should be postponed.

So there is much discussion of Trump and the election results. But there is another, equally pressing question: Will Democrats accept the results of the election if Joe Biden loses? A new report suggests the answer could be no.

The report comes from a secretive group called the Transition Integrity Project. A bipartisan, anti-Trump organization, TIP was created last year by Georgetown law professor Rosa Brooks and historian and think tanker Nils Gilman, "out of concern that the Trump administration may seek to manipulate, ignore, undermine or disrupt the 2020 presidential election and transition process."

Shoulda went Minority Report and had the department of precrime halo his ###.

Seriously, I have no doubt that the violence seen so far is a microcosm of what will come.

I wonder what the military will do?

Just a repeat of 16, when the dems said the same thing but have spent the last 3.5 years doing everything possible to overthrow the election

You snooze you lose.  I will let you post the information where Biden asks a Black reporter if they are a junkie.

I'm surprised at his level of dementia he's not done a "didn't my dad own your grandfather?" yet.

Maybe he will suggest I am a junkie.

Is this particularly shocking, though? I recall that in 2016, when I was riding on a college late night bus, there were a number of livestream on youtube where Hillary supporters were SCREAMING and CRYING as if heaven collapsed and Lucifer conquered the Earth. I am sure it will eventually go away.

That is pretty much the entirely point.  Every time a Democrat leader talks about a concern of Trump or his supporters, you can almost 100% guarantee that the Democrats are already doing the same thing.

Eh, not that worried. Don't get me wrong, I would want anyone not Mr. Trump for 2021 presidency, but just like many things in the world (not just the US), it will eventually vaporize.
