Trump: Foreign countries will print 'millions of mail-in ballots' in 'scandal of our times!'

[Tom Rinaldo]

13. He'll claim mail in fraud as the reason if he gets whomped in November

Exactly the same ploy as his claim to have won the popular vote in 2016 were it not for massive illegal voting. Evidence, who needs evidence? He didn't have any then either.

Unlike some I don't think Trump would refuse to leave office based on an election fraud claim. He knows his standing in history will look far worse if he actually has to be carried out of the White House by Federal Marshals, or worse. He now knows that the military will be faithful to the Constitution, and not to him personally. No, it is all about his ego. Trump can't handle the humiliation of losing and of being rejected by the American people. It would not be enough to blame the pandemic or unfair media for his loss, he must reject actually losing itself.

And though I think it unlikely that he will try to hold onto the White House if Biden wins, Trump will still do major damage to our democracy by claiming the election was stolen from him, and by refusing to honor our long standing tradition of a gracious transfer of power. But Trump doesn't give a fuck, it is only about him
