Or it gets mouth breathers on liberal networks to freak the fuck out and give him attention and free press. He's not going to ignore the results. He's not going to get a third term. This is obvious if you take a deep breath and count to 5.

Good to see the people of Louisville and across the country be reasonable adults.........

Why is it obvious? Trump violates norms all the time. Why would he adhere to this?
Even if 'law' dictates one thing or the other should happen...Trump being unwilling to give up power would be ugly.

This. Essentially he might go crazy and ask state legislators to insert their own EC. Something about there's nothing verbatim stating that each states EC must be based upon its popular vote. Doesn't say exactly but probably something like 'Based upon the will of the people"

It's fucking crazy.
I really don't like how he throws it out there so casually and people cheer it.....I read the same article already.
I believe him. I really do.

He's acknowledging he'll sue if Democrats put ballots in every person's hand with no verification and accept turn-in booths on street corners, like they want to in PA. Democrats are doing it too. They've been fantasizing about throwing Trump out of office in cuffs led by the generals. Both sides have a team of lawyers that will cry foul. That's why it's important to have a 9th justice, because if Democrats are talking about one party rule and stuffing the courts, and being celebrated for it, what won't they do? That's the kind of shit 3rd world countries pull. Not 1st world nations.
I want every American to vote. But the notion that verifying a person's identity is somehow an attack on democracy is bullshit. There's no risk of the USPS not getting ballots post marked on time to the precincts. That's another bullshit conspiracy spun by the left to justify their overreach. It hasn't been Trump or Republican governors delaying elections without approval from their legislators - it's been Democratic ones. So if a state like PA does something fucky, like ordering ballots be counted days after the election without any signature or identification validation, damn right he has the ability to sue and let SCOTUS decide. Gore did it in 2000, and you bet your ass Biden will sue in 2020. It wasn't Republicans calling for the electorals to ignore their states in 2016, it was Democrats. There were articles in every major paper masturbating to the idea, praying that the college ignore the votes of their citizens.
If he loses the election, he'll step down. We're not Russia. This isn't the Hand Maid's tale. The man says a lot of stupid shit because he has the temperament of a 13 year old. I don't like the son of the bitch either, but you guys take the bait every single time. This guy can't go a week without some "insider" spilling the beans, and you imagine there's some universe where Trump becomes Fuhrer and rules for life. Every fucking election it's the end of the world and it's the Democrats versus the Third Reich.

This is what happens when a game show host is elected president.
He doesn't. He can challenge the results but he doesn't have a choice. Everyone acting hysterical on TV knows it. Both Trump and the media are playing this up for attention and ratings, the media for ratings now and Trump for his new show/network when he's out of office.
