WTF? Trump says he may not accept election results when he loses, since Hillary didn't accept them in 2016

In an Oval Office interview yesterday with Politico, in which the interview was solely focused on the upcoming Presidential election, Trump was asked a two-part question, the second part asked 'whether he would accept the results no matter what?'

Responded Trump:

"Well, you can never answer the second question, right? Because Hillary kept talking about she's going to accept, and they never accepted it. You know. She lost, too. She lost good."

Another LIE by Trump, as the reporter pointed out that Hillary accepted the results when the election was called for Trump, and conceded the morning after the election.

Can this man ever be honest about anything ?

And all Hillary had to do was be honorable and give the VP to Bernie.

Tough luck but I now agree with the outcome.

What about this November?

[–] TabbyS (1277) 5 years ago

It will be too much of a flip-flop til the end. I was OK with Trump's handling of the pandemic, but he won't hold support with his negligence of police abuse.

I think the police have the same "sense of entitlement" that rich people like Trump do. They can get away with anything without accountability. Maybe that's why Trump can't empathize with victims, but the God I believe in defends the weak.

So yr ok with all the misleading Tweets and the pandemic hoax?

[–] TabbyS (1277) 5 years ago

I don't have Twitter. You're referring to the President? No joke?

I was OK with Trump's handling of the pandemic...

So your okay with Trump's incompetence and his mishandling of the coronavirus crisis which caused thousands of unnecessary Americans death. I don't get it.

[–] TabbyS (1277) 5 years ago

Have you ever handled a pandemic crisis? I think it's something awfully hard to judge. For all of the President's flaws, he has the ability to listen to medical and scientific advisors.

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

Obama handled two pandemic crisis in his Presidency, and was very successful in his handling. He listened to medical experts, and made sensible decisions.

What Obama didn't do either time was :

Brush it off as a hoax
Waste 70 days while being told it was spreading rapidly
Say it was going to stop at 15 people
Say it would disappear miraculously
Suggest his followers inject bleach and disinfectant into their bodies
Ignore it

Everything he didn't do, Trump did this time around...which is why the death toll is nearing 120,000 Americans. Yes, Trump has the blood on his hands of every single American who has passed from COVID.

I'm a registered Independent so I tend to see the good and the bad.

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

Then you should be very familiar with all the bad from Trump. His past three years have offered nothing but bad for the country, which is why we're in the state which we're currently in.

[–] TabbyS (1277) 5 years ago

So then we'll put in Biden - maybe we can get Condi or Oprah to run with him. Everyone says it's going to have to be a strong African-American
woman.

Really? Now I know you are trolling. The only voices Trump listens to are the ones in his head.

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

In the end, she conceded the next morning when all the results were in, and the race was called. So why must he lie about that, too ? Does he not know everything is well documented and can be fact checked ? Or is he an utter moron like his base ?

[–] Matildawormwood (1545) 5 years ago

Well he's just have to get over it and lose like a man just like Hilary had to take the loss like woman. This isn't Kindergarten.

[–] HarlemEagle42 (18433) 5 years ago

He wasn't happy when he won the first time, people expect him to accept defeat willingly?

[–] sut6432 (2928) 5 years ago

Hillary accepted it, but the majority of liberal America threw a temper tantrum for the ages, that’s STILL going on to this day. I’m never seen a group of grown adults cry and whine like that...and NEVER stop for years. It continues to be some of the most pathetic behavior I’ve ever seen in my life.

[–] yatzo376 (7753) 5 years ago

You want pathetic?
Look at our POTUS

[–] sut6432 (2928) 5 years ago

Not denying that. Everyone on here is so one sided. I agree with some things Trump does as far as policies, but the man is extremely unprofessional, and we all knew that going into it.

What I’m asking you, and what you dodged, is are you denying the hypocrisy between lauding protests and condemning rallies as far as COVID goes?

[–] yatzo376 (7753) 5 years ago

I’m not lauding the rioting looters , nobody here is, but Trumps decisions in the wake of all this madness is flat out INSANE

[–] sut6432 (2928) 5 years ago

People here definitely are lauding rioters/protesters. I have to disagree with you there, but I do agree it’s really dumb to be holding political rallies right now.

[–] yatzo376 (7753) 5 years ago

I haven’t read any pro violent protesters here, but I could have missed something

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

I haven't either - well, except for the Trumpers who stick up for the Boogaloo Bois and the Neo Nazis (those 'very fine people').

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

You're lumping 'rioters' with 'protesters' like all Republicans do, even though there's no proof of that. Boogaloo Bois are rioters, not protesters - so it's not fair or responsible to mix them all in together.

[–] snepts (11123) 5 years ago

No ! People aren't lauding rioters. That's the usual pub spin on almost everything. Make up a story and then convince people it's reality. If someone tries to make a rational point, they are greeted by the wrong wing with "commies," "move to Venezuela," and we're just like all the rest of the queer loving Hollyweird and socialist university scum.
But are we lauding protesters? Sure. Why not?

[–] sut6432 (2928) 5 years ago

But are we lauding protesters? Sure. Why not?

Ok, let me slow this down. Keep with me here. The OP is bashing Trump for holding political rallies because of Coronavirus concerns...yet has no problem with thousands of protesters marching arm in arm...no Coronavirus concerns there? It’s fine to march. It’s not fine to hold a political rally. Hypocrisy.

Bad when trump does it/fine when protesters do it=biased political hypocrite.

I personally think if you’re worried about COVID, like the OP claims frequently, then there should be some concerns with the protesting spreading COVID, yet there isn’t.

You all completely agree with the OP, which is fine, but you can’t seem to look outside your box for two little seconds to see said hypocrisy...which also is fine, because I’m very happy to point it out.

Why are you so worried about COVID when it’s Trump holding a rally, but you are NOT worried about COVID when people are protesting???

That's not a lie. She is still VERY bitter about it TODAY.

TDS is real.
