Trump on Accepting the Results of the Election: ‘Let’s See What the Hell Happens’

With only two days until the election, President Donald Trump is letting his supporters know whether he will accept the results.

“And now they say, ‘Will you respect the decision of the voters and will there be a friendly transition?’ First of all, there’s not going to be a transition, we’re winning. But then you say, then you say, well let me ask you, four years ago was there a friendly transition?” Trump said during a Sunday rally in Iowa.

He continued, “They were spying on my campaign before I even won and what was worse was they were spying on my campaign after I won to overthrow the president of the United States, okay, which is called treason and let’s see what the hell happens. I don’t know why it takes so long, but it takes a long time.”

The president’s comments appear to contradict his earlier pledge to commit to a transfer peaceful of power during his NBC News town hall, as IJR previously reported.

“I want it to be clean. I really feel we’re going to win, but I want this to be clean. But it’s sort of ironic that you and them talk about the peaceful transfer when I spent three and a half years fighting off these maniacs and now it turns out everything’s there that they were the ones that dealt with Russia and it’s too bad,” Trump said.

He continued, “But peaceful transfer, I absolutely want that, but ideally I don’t want a transfer because I want to win.”

A new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll finds Trump trails by 10 percentage points among voters nationally.

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden leads Trump 52% to 42%.

Across a set of 12 battleground states, Biden leads by a total of six points.
