How much of a landslide will be needed for Trump to accept a loss in Nov? [View all]

Sorry if this has already been asked.

My anxiety is kicking in after seeing what happened in Venezuela.

I'm predicting The Orange One will act like a spoiled brat, throw a tantrum and incite riots if the numbers are close.

He would find an excuse to have a meltdown no matter the result. dslyahoo Aug 7 #1

If he loses no matter by how much, he will not accept the results JohnSJ Aug 7 #2

Is there a limit to how many times someone can try to steal an election? agalisgv Aug 7 #8

It wouldn't matter. He'll claim he won regardless. Ocelot II Aug 7 #3

What we need is a win robust enough that it can't be overturned in one (or preferably two) states. D23MIURG23 Aug 7 #12

Yes agalisgv Aug 7 #13

Unforunately,... Think. Again. Aug 7 #36

They'll try that, but I think it can be stopped. D23MIURG23 Aug 7 #39

The only thing that stopped it last time was pence covering his own ass. Think. Again. Aug 7 #42

He was scared to get into that SS car. orthoclad Aug 7 #48

Aw, you don't trust the agents who wiped their phones? orthoclad Aug 7 #56

Nope. Think. Again. Aug 7 #61

It wasn't just Pence, it was a lot of people who resisted Trump. D23MIURG23 Aug 7 #54

It was only pence who's decision stopped it all. Think. Again. Aug 7 #60

Well, Harris will have Pence's role wrt certification, so if your theory is that only the VP matters, then no worries. D23MIURG23 Aug 7 #62

That isn't my theory at all, I don't know why you would think that... Think. Again. Aug 7 #63

Then why is it that only Pence matters and not all the other people who resisted? D23MIURG23 Aug 7 #64

As I mentioned, it was only pence's decision to certify that stopped the last coup. Think. Again. Aug 7 #66

Incorrect. D23MIURG23 Aug 7 #68

Like in 2000? orthoclad Aug 7 #49

2000 was overturned by one state. If you would actually read what I wrote, 2000 was the reason for it. n/t D23MIURG23 Aug 7 #57
