In 2000 both Bush and Gore challenged the election results.

[Cancel 2020.1]

What is ambiguous about this exchange?

Wallace: "Do you make the same commitment that you will absolutely accept the results of this election?"

Trump: "I will look at it at the time. What I've seen is so bad..."

Wallace: "There is a tradition in this country...is the peaceful transition of power, and that no matter how hard-fought a campaign is, that at the end of the campaign, that the loser concedes to the winner...and that the country comes together."

Trump: "I will tell you at the time. I will keep you in suspense."

Because if you read this - Wallace is talking about ultimately conceding the election & accepting the results.

So, that's a "yes, he did concede" answer...right?

And Trump never said that he won't at one point concede.

And Trump never said that he won't at one point concede.

He didn't commit to it, when twice given the opportunity. He said he'd keep us in suspense.

It's a pretty easy, straightforward question Wallace was asking. Trump wouldn't say yes.

And why should Trump accept the results if the election is rigged?

What will happen if hillary loses in a close vote.? Will the press then say she cannot challenge? HAHA

 

[evince]

She can ask for recounts in various areas depending on local laws & guidelines. But in the end, if she is still on the losing end, she will concede the election. And she will say today that she will concede the election.

Wallace didn't ask him if he would eventually concede he asked if he would concede the election results which he shouldn't if the fix is in which it is.

I don't even think the bolded is significant enough to qualify as hairsplitting.

 

[christiefan915]

Oh, but that was different lol.

It was different. The election was over and the votes were too close to call. Neither Gore nor bush claimed vote-rigging before the election.

so you grant hillary the right to challenge the election?? But trump can't??? THINK

What are you talking about?

No one is saying that Trump can't make challenges according to the laws.

They're balking at the idea that he won't commit to conceding the election.

Those are 2 completely different concepts.

 

[tinfoil]

he doesn't think


there is no evidence of what he speaks idiot

Let's all have a laugh at Evince, the poster who spouted about vote fraud and Deibold machines for years on end!

 

[tinfoil]

Why do we even care if Trump accepts the results? Are we really supposed to fear his supporters? Come on, they're a harmless bunch. Hell, the fights at their rallies were staged by liberal operatives. Trump supporters couldn't even start their own fights!

I don't really care much what Trump does. I prefer he throws a huge temper tantrum and further rips the integrity of the Republican Party.

BTW, Gore, very respectfully and gracefully did accept the election results once he ensured that all the votes he could get counted were counted.

When did trump say he will never concede? THINK

 

[Text Drivers are Killers]

Which is NOT the same as saying all the votes were counted. The 2000 election was a bad joke. I recall jay leno saying "The supreme court has picked our president. I remember when it used to be the other way".

I don't really have the time nor the inclination to educate an ignoramus like you, but the closeness of the 2000 Florida vote demanded a recount.

Fact is that Trump is going to get his ass kicked so bad, that will not be necessary. Fuck him and his concession. The election will be certified without it.

so basically it depends on the result and how close it is to determine? Does that mean we wait till election day?

Or does it mean we should commit to accepting the result no matter how close or how far it is?

i recall the sc had to step in and gore wanted to keep going
