Final debate
Donald Trump refuses to say whether he'll accept election results
Donald Trump on Wednesday refused to say he would accept the result of the presidential election if he loses to Hillary Clinton, raising the possibility of an extraordinary departure from principles that have underpinned American democracy for more than two centuries.
"I will look at it at the time," Trump said when asked during the final presidential debate whether he would concede if he loses on November 8, following his claims that the election is "rigged" against him.
He added: "I will keep you in suspense."
. . . .
A CNN/ORC instant poll found 52% of debate watchers viewed Clinton as the winner compared to 39% who felt the same about Trump.
Much more substantive than the 2nd debate.
Differences on actual policy matters of interest were highlighted.
The manner was civil for the first half hour and then we were back in the mud.
Chris Wallace made a valiant effort to maintain order and keep the answers of the two somewhere within shouting distance of the questions asked, with mixed success.
But not everyone was happy with his work.
CNN now shows the Electoral College at 307 for Hillary and 179 for Donald.
P.S.
Trump, pressed on the point, admitted his nominees for the Supremes would overturn Roe.
Nobody asked whether they would decide Obamacare, Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid are all unconstitutional.
Priorities?
