Trump refuses to commit to accepting 2024 election results

Andrew Weissmann, former top official at the Justice Department, and Marc Elias, voting rights attorney, join Nicolle Wallace on Deadline White House with reaction to Donald Trump refusing to commit to accepting the results to the 2024 election, this time in Wisconsin, telling the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that he won the 2020 election despite two recounts, which cost taxpayers millions of dollars, and saying he will only accept the results “if everything is honest.”

If you refuse to commit to the results of an election you should be barred from participation in that election. I mean, what's the point?

[didmooretheundone]

He knows that he has already lost. That's why he is talking like this. There is no other explanation.

[jasonmardoniomeza]

Why is Trump still allowed to run for President and why is Russia still a member of the UN security council?

[daveoscroonintunes]

This is exactly what he did in early 2020.

[MrPostman]

This man should be convicted and jailed.

[niclewis]

No king. No dictator. No tyrant. No Trump. And no immunity. Vote Blue.

He's already setting up the L. His narcissistic brain can't allow him to compute that he lost and keeps losing.

[garygoodrich]

Never accepts defeat. Always someone else's fault, always someone else is incompetent, and always someone else is (add juvenile-sounding name-calling). His father must have really f***ed him up big time!!!

[YYY-GUY]

This is how Chump's mind works:
Heads - I win and the election is legit.
Tails - I lose because the election was rigged.

This is how everyone else's minds work:
Chump lost because he's a loser.

[natlegend]

Why is everyone acting so surprised? Of COURSE he won't accept his inevitable loss. Geez America, please catch up.

[Killswitch-Overdrive.]

Trump held a rally yesterday in Wisconsin and sounded like a mumbling fool and the crowd was less than enthusiastic.

[johnnystewart]

Voting blue 💙 across the board in November! 💙

[badger]

In other words, he is promising a repeat of January 6, 2021. We cannot let this happen. Trump must lose in a landslide.

[gpzzprh]

He didn't accept the results when he was calling the shots. How in the world, would anyone believe comrade bone spurs will admit defeat (again) now that joe is running the show?

[laurabustos]

If the person didn't commit to accepting the results in 2020, how would it surprise one to find they won't accept the results of 2024...

[jerryjerry]

we know, its called continuing the act of war he perped on jan 6.

[ebear]

Who really gives a crap, he'll be too busy in prison trying not to be some" big man with tears in his eyes" wife. LoL..vote blue my friends.

[pisces]

Why would he accept the results? He’s made millions by not accepting the 2020 results.

[jwanie]

I expect Marc and his team to be even busier this November than in 2020. We don't deserve you, Marc!
