He absolutely would have riled up his base. I fully anticipate the same thing, of him, if his owners can't swing the 2020 election, his way.

I remember trump saying that very thing. He said he would accept the results of the election only if he won. He repeated himself for emphasis.

There would have been no peaceful transition then, and there will not be one this time. We better be prepared.

Thank you Mr. Cohen.

This is what he will do when he loses the 2020 election (and he will lose) He will refuse to concede claiming election fraud just as he has done now about the 3 million popular votes Clinton got in CAL over Trump...he says illegal voters. He may even produce fraudulent evidence of voter fraud and declare (another) National Emergency and declare martial law just like he's doing on the southern border but the majority of the nation won't believe him or stand for it and he will step down or be removed by the majority. Our new Democratically elected president will insist and by then Trump will have lost ALL credibility. We won't forget the nasty Christmas present of a gov shutdown or the kids in cages by this amoral sociopath. In fact getting rid of Trump will become a national holiday.

Israel showed us the way, they just indicted Neti.

The fascist lunatic will scream that millions of illegals voted and that he has no choice but to disregard the results of the election. Be forewarned. He has no conscience or sense of decency and neither does his rabid cultists.

did he end those excellent remarks with that ridiculous statement?

It is EXACTLY what he is! The liar and con man and cheat that he originally said he was.

It’s like he suddenly shot down everything he spent the day telling us.
