When Donald Trump loses this election he vowed in Wednesday’s debate he might not accept defeat on Nov. 8.
“I’ll look at it at the time,” Trump said.
Trump was responding to moderator Chris Wallace’s specific questions about whether he would honor the American tradition of the presidential loser conceding to the president-elect.
When Wallace pressed him again, Trump responded again that he’d “keep you in suspense.”
HRC’s response:
“That’s horrifying. You know, every time Donald thinks things are not going in his direction, he claims whatever it is, is rigged against him. The FBI conducted a year-long investigation into my e-mails. They concluded there was no case; he said the FBI was rigged. He lost the Iowa caucus. He lost the Wisconsin primary. He said the Republican primary was rigged against him. Then Trump University gets sued for fraud and racketeering; he claims the court system and the federal judge is rigged against him. There was even a time when he didn’t get an Emmy for his TV program three years in a row and he started tweeting that the Emmys were rigged against him. This is a mindset. This is how Donald thinks. And it’s funny, but it’s also really troubling. That is not the way our democracy works. We’ve been around for 240 years. We’ve had free and fair elections. We’ve accepted the outcomes when we may not have liked them. And that is what must be expected of anyone standing on a debate stage during a general election. You know, President Obama said the other day when you’re whining before the game is even finished. It just shows you’re not up to doing the job. And let’s — you know, let’s be clear about what he is saying and what that means. He is denigrating — he’s talking down our democracy. And I, for one, am appalled that somebody who is the nominee of one of our two major parties would take that kind of position.”
At the end of debate Trump sneers at Hillary, “What a nasty woman.” End of his story.
Shocking, keep us in suspense, wtf? Then looked into the camera and said, “such a nasty woman”.. Damn the guy even told us he never apologized to his wife over the woman..
Lol, Craig, were on the same page?
Nicolle Wallace said it well – He laid in his own coffin and hammered in his own nails. She crossed into the land of the sane. Ryan, McConnell, McCain are in a padded room tomorrow. .. brilliant.
And Jeff Flake called his not saying he’d accept the results as “beyond the pale.” Gotta be his worst moment of many this evening.
he threw ronald reagan under the bus…there is no return.
Fienman opined that she had to win big. She must have been listening. Hey Howard, was that big enough?
INauguration party?! Tony and i were just discussing going- having a TM party would be a pisser!

thanks craig, that marriot link has rooms at 332 i think per night.
tony- you wanna be my roomy? that has 2 doubles.
I’ll give her an A+. I’ll give him a F. That is 2 As and an A+ for her and 2 Ds and an F for him. He gets 2 Ds simply for showing up after his first disastrous ‘debate’ showing.
Clinton absolutely incinerated trump on the topic of tsar putin.

Craig sounds great, Mrs Jack has a friend who lives outside of DC, if she has a spare room and we can find an airline seat, we are talking about coming.
Jack
BTW, her friend is a 30 something Republican woman who is so offended by Trump that she feels it is her duty to vote for Clinton.
Jack
Trump probably had his best debate tonight but Clinton gave a masterful performance. Trump never had a chance.
Early on she took the fight to him and had him against the ropes Then she looked at te camera and delivered this one For the rest of the debate Trump was a dead man walking.
Agreed Jack, thanks, glad you found it. Was watching and looking for moments that would get undecideds- found that reply so well worded that it transpired party, and inspired a number of sentiments.
TM Report from AZ: I didn’t think it possible that AZ would go blue. But, Trump managed to turn everything upside down last night here in the desert. Clinton will probably win AZ now as only the true believers are left in the Trump camp. Trump might have helped John McCain lose his Senate seat, too. With almost three weeks left, it is too early to predict his defeat to Anne Kirkpatrick. Kirkpatrick might be the beneficiary of a skirt-tail victory. The most recent poll shows her down by double digits. After last night, we’ll see if the Senate race tightens. Only one congressional seat is really in play, the 1st, where Sheriff Babeu is in a tight race. Last night may have caused his defeat, too. See you online.
“HRC the new LBJ, hope so”
tony, you nailed it about Hillary being good at working congress critters. lbj in drag.
or would lbj in heels sound better, be more pc?
I smell the toast – burnt toast. It must be the deadbeat.
I know I shouldn’t be… but I was surprised by how stupid Trump was last night. He not only acted like he wanted to lose this election… but have the entire Republican Party divorce him… finally.
It’s one fine day to be a Hillary supporter!
Well, if you wanted to celebrate Hillary’s election with a couple of bad hombres, visiting Craig and David would fit the bill. 🙂
jack, thanks for posting “Donald thinks belittling women makes him bigger,” Clinton said, in a lower pitch than she usually uses to pursue her case. “He goes after their dignity, their self-worth, and I don’t think there is a woman anywhere that doesn’t know what that feels like.
not only did she look directly in the camera as you said and say the above in a lower pitch, there seemed a subdued sob or personal poignancy about it…. a remembering of all the times her self-worth has been impugned.
good for gary. good tweet:

Not accepting elections is not surprising from a guy who wants to shred agreements, ban Muslims & resume torture.…
we’re full up with relatives. damn, should toss them and rent rooms at those prices. ha, there’s always the new Trump Hotel on PA ave — probably gonna be a lot of cancellations soon
and now the late night comedians do their thing
Inauguration Party? Checking my lottery numbers.
The new hotel?
Oh, you mean the Trump Palace. Rumor (now starting) has it the place is fully booked with phantom guests at $2k a pop.
Sounds to me the best room may be the main lounge at the airport.
Thank you Donald Trump defeating Roy Blount
Fact Checks of the Third Debate
Sometimes a hard ass business deal approach does not impress, especially if you are running for a place in a non-profit type organization like the United States. The man is not as much intelligent as a blowhard idiot. I still want to see his tax returns, those must have some fantastic accounting principles used. A few might even be considered legitimate.
I want to see him lead off in a perp walk for fraud against the world.
And I believe the 17 agencies stating it is the Russians (formerly Soviet) FSB SVR and Russian freelancers out to screw things up.
There is nothing Trump can do when he loses he is too cheap to take a fight to the finish
Trump TV now that’s the biggest loser. Will The Condom be in charge of women’s programming.
I imagine this is a fool’s gold version of The Blaze – which was/is total drivel – who wants to spend a day inside Glen Beck’s brain let alone Donald Trump
Gee Bannon and Bossee defeated again and I can see where the Clinton accusers want another day in court or whatever but really ladies you all have had your story told more than once.
And you let Donald Trump use you.
Dems need to beef up in Might Mo. Claire McCaskell (and Jack) need to get those Dems to the polls
Even on a weekday with nothing special happening in town, D.C. hotels charge just as much for a night as hotels in Maui do. Now let something happen like a presidential inauguration (let alone an historic one) and those hotels think “gee… if pharmaceutical companies can gouge people… well, so can’t we”.
We’ll be partying here… thank you for the offer though, Craig.
Oh boy it is really over Katy Tur just hoisted a big shade blanket over Trump …..”there is no evidence for many things he says including last night when he denied things he said on tape.”
..
Renee
If you go out 15- 20 miles the rates are normal, Mrs jack just booked a Red Roof inn for $70. We will rent a car for the suburban stuff and come in on the Metro for the day of the inauguration. She could have also used her Hilton rewards but we are saving them for someplace warm and fun. As it is just a place to sleep a Red Roof works.
So right now it looks like we will be in town for the event.
Jack
Trump doubles down on his refusal to accept the results
Ezra Klein makes a good point.
Be advised: traffic is a nightmare in the D.C. Metro area, plan accordingly.
The 16 other rippers the deadbeat defeated to get the nomination weren’t talented, Mr. Klein. Other than getting elected and taking money from babes to give to B!LL!ONA!RE$, none of them has accomplished a thing. Senator lindsey graham can do stand up comedy, but that hardly makes him presidential.
and here’s a recap by Alexandra petri: The last debate: Donald Trump doesn’t care about democracy
By Federal law all D.C. streets must intersect at crazy angles. In this one matter D.C. is a law-abiding city.
Rachel maddow calls Giuliani and Conway’s spin “totally insane” according to mediaite
Trump wouldn’t live in any of the states that support him
Hillary showed that she can smile and swing a knife at the same time….she took the Rump down to size…..proud of her! Now that she has shown how to take down the opponent…all dems can do the same……..they need to take them out now….without any compassion at all………..while they are at it….they can take down those like Gulliani, Kelly anne and anyone that was, or is tied to Trump……….Like the Rock (of the wrestling world used to say) Can U smell it? can you smell it cooking suckers………Now is the time to start taking down those in Fox News like Hannity and others…just saying……..show how they are right wingers that dominate the news…and not the liberal media, and never was…..
On the light side……read where the Mexicans are still sticking it to Trump……at one of his businesses sites…….they formed the great wall that he wanted……….a frking wall of “Taco Trucks” in continuing protests……..im laughing my…. colita….. off over he-a……would it be possible to get Tump elected to the Senate……im willing to give up a seat…..just so we can keep him around…….he is the reality show that keeps on giving…….who would want to do business with him after all of this……Ps…….keep the pressure on OBAMA…….you are the potus…..get IRS and whom ever it takes to investigate him………and then send him and his accomplices to fkn jail…….Now is the time to start the full court press no?………later
A Solid Wall of Taco Trucks. I want to stand downwind !
I’m not a D.C. expert, but:
-set up an email list to coordinate plans
-try when at all possible to use public transit
-park at a suburban metro station and take the train into the city
-wear comfortable walking shoes
-give yourself hours to travel miles
-stick together, as a group, to help each other out
-assume there’s no way in hell you’ll get a table at a restaurant
-don’t ask security professionals for directions, they’re busy
-be patient, have fun, dig the vibe
Oh, you’ll feel like you own the city if you’re on a bicycle
XR,….When i had my own construction corp…….i found out that a taco trk in the right hands…..is like a gourmet restaurant………..but if in the wrong hands……..you maybe right…….Once had goat tacos that i would kill the Trump for…for free….the goat meat was lightly roasted in pumpkin oil……..with some red onions,fresh cilantro on top……..nothing else….then some organic guacamole……some tortillas heated just at the right temperature, an ice cold bud,……..Pogo….lets go……these will beat our carnitas tacos…hands down………
DC,
I would take my motor-home and make it for a whole week or more…..tow……no not toe….tow a vehicle……..XR it sleeps 6…..meet me at Ninos….and will bring some pizzas for the trail riders…..
