Except… what he said was he’d have to wait and see what happens on election day. And, if you’ll pardon the Devil’s Advocate argument here… shouldn’t we?
Look, we know that voter fraud is in fact a thing that happens. Does it happen on as grand a scale as Trump or his supporters are implying? No… unless, of course, you believe that an entire state was stolen in 2000. In which case, you have absolutely no right to claim Trump is being a whiny little brat now. Elections are run by man, and man is flawed.
I’m not saying Trump is in the right here. It’s one thing to hold the elections process accountable. It’s necessary, just as much as holding everything involved with or related to government is. We hold these things accountable so that we can keep the system from becoming flawed. It’s not that doing so is a result of thinking it’s happening all the time. It’s because it has worked, and it has worked well, and we want to keep it that way.
