Trump: 'Too much is being made' about what I said in the debate

Apparently, everybody has Trump winning the second and third debate.

According to Trump. Everybody. Pretty decidedly blanket statement that does not seem to accurately reflect reality, but that seems normal for Trump.


Apparently, also according to Trump, his refusal to say whether or not he would accept the results of the elections without his self serving and no factual basis caveats has him saying folks are making too much of it.

Yeah Donald, you threaten the democratic process which has served this country amazingly well for a couple of hundred years, and it has that effect.

But then again this seems to be classic Donald. Rather than moving on with campaigning, he spends his time arguing critiques

President Barack Obama said it’s not a joke, Hillary Clinton said it’s a threat to democracy, and first lady Michelle Obama said you don’t keep American democracy in suspense. But Donald Trump on Monday said it's being overblown.
Indeed, the Republican presidential nominee on Monday morning said too much is being made about his refusal to say during the final presidential debate that he would accept the outcome of the election.

“Yes, I think too much is being made,” Trump told Bo Thompson on WBT-AM’s “Charlotte’s Morning News.” “But, you know, everybody had me winning the third debate and the second debate handily, easily. And when I made that statement, I made it knowingly, because what’s happening is absolutely ridiculous.”
After initially telling debate moderator Chris Wallace he would look at the results in November before determining whether he would accept the outcome, preferring to leave the nation “in suspense,” Trump teased his critics at an Ohio rally the next day, Oct. 20, by pledging to respect the results — “if I win.”
He later clarified that he would “of course” accept the outcome but maintained that he reserves his right to challenge “a questionable result.”
“You have — first of all, you have a media that as you see has obviously been very unfair, which is, I guess, fine, but it’s not really appropriate,” he said Monday. “But you have a media that’s a very, very — you know, it’s really a pile-on, the likes of which nobody’s ever seen, because I’m going to protect the people, and the media are the exact opposite and they represent the, you know, opposite.”
Clinton on Monday continued to hammer Trump for publicly toying with the idea of refusing to concede if he loses. Speaking with radio host Sam Sylk, the Democratic nominee re-upped her line that Trump's response during the debate was "horrifying."
"We can be disagreeable with each other on issues without threatening our democracy. And he has threatened our democracy by saying that he will only accept the results of the election if he wins," she said. "That is horrifying. And so I’m hoping that everybody, no matter what the issue is you care about, turns out and votes and repudiates that kind of attack on our fundamental institution

I couldn't vote for someone who questions our elections, it's the one thing we always get right. Even when Gore won the popular vote and Bush won the electoral vote, no one questioned Bush was the legitimate winner.

Poisoning the result before the voters have their say is reprehensible.

 

How does he threaten anything? Please tell me how a guy who lost an election can be a threat.

 

It's not him losing the election that can be a threat. It's him trying to de-legitimize the election before they've even taken place. He has ZERO evidence that this election is or will be "rigged," and yet he continues to make stuff up off the top of his head, and in turn put these made up ideas into his supporters' heads about the election being "rigged." And it would be one thing for him to say "I will accept the election results If I decide at the time that they're legitimate" But no, he went way beyond that, with "I will accept the results of this election if I win..." -which to me makes him an absolutely despicable POS who has no regard for American democracy or any other democracy around the world. It's also taken things way beyond "but all he did was say 'pu$$y'..."

 

Was that a quote from Bernie Sanders after reading the Wikileaks on the Democrats and the primary?

And now those strong ideals will somehow fade away....

Wikileaks is the proof. I know your media sources are pretending they dont exist, but it's all there. Banana republic stuff.

Oh never mind, Trump called someone fat...much more important.

 

So I guess you won't be voting for Hillary since she said an outside force might meddle with the election results.

 

And that's exactly what the media is doing: Poisoning the well before the election.
