Does he have access to an escape plane in Mar A Lago if the heat picks up after January and he needs to flee the country?

Great, something else I can write about no good 40 stories high 700 mile wall Biden. He's a heretical necromancer to boot since "bad dude" William L. "Corn Pop" Morris has been dead since December 2nd, 2016!

:confused:
Do you think Joe knows that?

I'm not sure why people believe this.

He wants the power. He doesn't care about the actual "responsibilities".

Social Dominators want to accrue and use as much power as possible, and they just don't care about doing what's right, unless it accidentally fits into their other plans.

If Trump didn't want to be President, he could resign right now and get a full pardon from Pence.
And being that he behaves like a 3 year old, he will just stamp his feet* and have a tantrum.

* even if he has to hold on to something so he can stamp his feet and not fall over.

I mean you’re the guy who seemed confused by the idea that the guy who says ‘I may not accept the election results’ may not accept the election results, haha.

It isn't nice to lie.

What Trump said-

Wallace asked Trump “can you give a direct answer that you will accept the election?”

“I have to see,” Trump said of accepting the result in November. “I have to see. No, I’m not going to just say yes. I’m not going to say no, and I didn’t last time either.”


Spin that for us, OK?

I thought I was being charitable!

If you're not confused by the matter then the only reason you would call it a 'BS conspiracy theory' is if you were trying to lie to us and as we've already established, that's not nice.

Why would I spin it for you? I don't need to. If the results of some areas are close or questionable he has every right to contest the results. The same goes for Biden.

Do you have an issue with the laws and rules?

You want to spin it as though he will contest the results and not leave period. Which is a silly conspiracy IMO.

I’m simply repeating what he said. It’s sad when people lie about it. Wouldn’t you agree?

I'm gonna stock up on canned goods and fresh water, just in case. These days an awful lot of people are promoting violence and regardless of the election results, I won't feel completely safe.

I have a problem with a President who deliberately tries to discredit the elections with distortions & outright lies. That's an intolerable attack on the institutions of democracy. He's done it from the beginning, even when he won, in claiming he lost the popular vote because of 3-5M illegal votes. Like nobody else would notice that. He's doing it again over mail in ballots.

Yeh, sure, either candidate has options for recounts in accordance with State law. And they have to accept the results of all that, which isn't what Trump is talking about at all. What he's doing is un-American & anti-Democracy, but you already knew that, right?

So, I ask you, if Trump isn't holding the option of authoritarian takeover, why is he doing all the things that have presaged such events across the Twentieth Century? Pure accident?

The pathetic tough talkers will keep doing what they do best, being pathetic and impotent.
The wheels of status quo will grind any of the brave ones to dust. The rest will fall in line.

Apparently it's going to get really bad if Trump is reelected. Osama bin Laden's niece is claiming that there will be another 9-11 type event if Trump doesn't remain in office. Perplexing to me that she would be basically campaigning for Trump.
"Osama bin Laden‘s niece has claimed that another 9/11-inspired attack could happen if Joe Biden is elected president, and she says only Donald Trump could prevent it."
" “ISIS proliferated under the Obama/Biden administration, leading to them coming to Europe. Trump has shown he protects America and us by extension from foreign threats by obliterating terrorists at the root and before they get a chance to strike,” Noor bin Ladin, 33, told the New York Post in her first-ever interview. "
In light of this I (We) should carefully consider who we should vote for. LOL
