President Donald Trump on Sunday suggested that Joe Biden had "won" the presidential election, while saying that the election was rigged -- a claim that has been widely debunked.
"He won because the Election was Rigged," Trump wrote, before falsely claiming that no watchers or observers had been allowed.

One White House official, asked if Trump was admitting Biden won, said: "It looks like it."
Asked if the tweet was the beginning of a Trump version of a concession, the official said, "It very well may be" and noted it was the second such signal Trump had sent in recent days. The first was his Rose Garden slip-up, where he mused on the possibility of another administration taking over. And he has also seemed to admit that Biden had won Arizona.

"He only won in the eyes of the FAKE NEWS MEDIA," Trump wrote. "I concede NOTHING!" He went on to repeat his false claim that the election was rigged.

Trump can concede or not concede but the longer this shit show goes on the worse he looks and expecting
Donny to show any kind of grace or statesmanship will never happen.
Fuck him. He is gone on 1/20/21 one way or another.

Update Trump's not accepting the results of the election now has the current C.D.C. blocking Joe Biden
from speaking with Anthony Fauci. Fuck him!

(31,963 posts)some professionals would throw a net over this raving lunatic and cart him away to an institution somewhere where hell never be heard from again. His Poor Me, So Unfair act is beyond tiresome. How anyone ever took him seriously is beyond my scope of comprehension.

It's business. It's about money. And that's the beginning and the end of it.

(16,932 posts)Mr. Biden and Ms. Harris won the election. The 'what ifs' from an abusive impeached traitor is meaningless gibber jabber. I wish M$M would move the hell on. The media is enabling impeached traitor's attempt to suck the joy out of the epic rescue of our country and our Democracy. Just stop.

(7,430 posts)He'll milk them dry. He teases them about an apparent victory and he victimizes himself for the loss. It's two spigots for turning on the cash. And his suckers will happily pour money into his pockets. For nothing. Because that's what Trump gives them in return.

(36,827 posts)I bet a Q fan co-worker Biden would be in the WH on 1/20. He's convinced Trump is withholding his master stroke so he can snatch victory out of the jaws of defeat at the last minute. I suggested he should contribute to Trump's legal fund which if he's right certainly won't go straight into Trump's pocket
He wouldn't even entertain the option of Trump losing, so I asked him hypothetically if Biden is in the WH on 1/20 is he going to entertain the possibility of being lied to all along. He said the only way he would accept the election results for Biden is if it is "proven" he won legitimately. I told him proving anything to someone with a closed mind is an impossible standard.
Make no mistake these people are cult members in every sense of the word.

I hope sponsors of media content dont pay for spots next to Trump content.
This is where the battleground is, sponsors cant be associated with the Trump brand or will end up orange themselves. And I refuse to shop at Home Depot, Hobby Lobby, Dennis Quaid movies, and any company or person who publicly supports the Trump Protifas. Ha ha. I made that up.
You get it, not one cent of mine goes into right-wing ideologue, pro-fascist companies.
Weve liberated much of media, driven morons to Parler, and now must crush them economically.

(10,252 posts)I also don't care if he never concedes, so history will always remember him as the sour-puss sore loser that he is. I hope someone uses spray paint to tag his grave headstone with a big red "LOSER." And he'd better not have the honor of his coffin laying in state at the capitol rotunda.
Botany
(70,483 posts)... Russian installed shit head and the idea that he could lay in state in the US Capital is sickening.
And no matter where they plant him they better put at least 20 feet of gravel around his grave
because no plant could live with all the uric acid from the non stop pissing.

Let's hear stories about pee tapes every day. Trump is about branding and diversion, let's give him a taste of his own medicine.

(11,885 posts)He offers hints of what people want to hear, then comes back taking the opposite position. He's going to play the victim using he was defrauded of his win to incite his followers with to put money in his pockets from them, or just another money generator scam. His followers have no clue he's fleecing them again.

(1,938 posts)We may think we live in a civil society, but that is delusional. At this point, with covid about to engulf us, anything can happen, in my opinion. There are cultists around here who don't believe any of this is happening, won't distance or mask up, won't get tested because they believe the swab testing is a plot to steal their DNA (as if anyone would want it). Engage in Hyper Safety, friends. And maybe disconnect from all the crap. But at the same time, we need to know what the f****ers are up to. What to do?

Warpy
(111,237 posts)and he's scamming them as hard as he can with his "recount donations," 60% of which go to repaying his debts (ha!) and 40% go to the RNC, the fine print stating that anything left over from paying his debts can go to fund recounts.
If he admits he got beaten by people who played by the rules, his cash flow from morons dries up.

(1,702 posts)He has always said something then back tracked if it didn't land well. MSM and social media site posters should (IMO) not give him the "change of mind, correction" space. HOLD the fucker to what he says, don't interpret for him, don't clarify for him, don't allow him to twist his word salads into what works for him. I'm not picking on the original poster here but offering my opinion of how the media has cut tRUMP so many breaks "corrections, explanations" when in fact we all know his "both sides" type of language is exactly what he means. Just sayin...

(12,523 posts)Abrams never conceded in GA. We still have Gov kemp. And we'll have Pres biden. Trump doesnt have to accept it, like it, or anything else.
He'll just go off and immediately start fleecing some of the 70+ million who voted for him by starting his new "network'. Which I've said was his plan back in '16, when he really didnt expect to win. It was all for publicity. He needs a LOT of money soon, and the best way to get it is to rip off that 70M for $5 a month
