WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Donald Trump said he may not accept the 2024 election results in Wisconsin, a key battleground state in his matchup with President Joe Biden, leaving open the possibility of post-election turmoil.

In an interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Wednesday, Trump said that if he doesn’t believe the result in November's election was legitimate, “you have to fight for the right of the country.”

Trump added, “If everything’s honest, I will absolutely accept the results.”

The Republican presidential candidate's comments came on the heels of an interview this week with Time magazine in which Trump did not rule out the possibility of political violence around the election, saying “it depends on the fairness” of the process.

In the Journal Sentinel interview, Trump reiterated his baseless claim that he won Wisconsin -- a Midwestern state he lost to Biden, a Democrat, by about 21,000 votes in 2020 -- and that the election was tainted by fraud. Trump's campaign unsuccessfully sought to disqualify almost 240,000 ballots cast for Biden.

Damn! This will just be a repeat of his 2020 crap.

1. Trump losing is the beginning of another insurrection.

He is laying the ground work for it right now.

[Traurigkeit]

11. This time the Correct President is in charge of The United States Military and does not hide behind others

[Irish_Dem]

24. Unlikely a normal president will use the US military against

Americans on US soil.

The legal system will handle Americans who commit crimes.

[Demsrule86]

63. To put down a civil war? Of course they would if needed. They sent soldiers into

states to enforce desegregation.

[Irish_Dem]

65. Times have changed.

I think Biden would do it by the book.

Call out the national guard before the US military.

Some of the Us military generals will not fire on American citizens.

[LiberalFighter]

66. They might if they are connected to the Jan 6 Capitol riot.

[Demsrule86]

18. But this time he is not president...he has no shot.

[Irish_Dem]

26. Trump's goal is to create chaos and damage.

Make his flying monkeys do his dirty work.

I assume Biden will be ready for it.

[riversedge]

52. It already has taken root-Actually the chaos -and damage to the USA has been ongoing via

trump and his cult fan club for a long time now.

[Irish_Dem]

53. Exactly. The GOP is damaging and breaking down our democracy.

To install their white christian minority.
They cannot win by democratic means, they have to cheat
to obtain permanent power and control.

[Demsrule86]

62. He doesn't have swing states under GOP control. He can't call out the military or

seize the ballot boxes. He can't overthrow the election. He can create chaos and violence but in the end, he loses.

[orangecrush]

35. Won't work like last time

That's guaranteed

[Irish_Dem]

36. The same plan won't work again.

I don't know the details of Trump's new plan.

[orangecrush]

58. Here it is

I'm leaking it

[Irish_Dem]

60. Makes perfect sense to Trump.

[Delmette2.0]

43. He wouldn't know honest

If it slapped him.

[underpants]

2. Uh you don't have a choice, Moron.

[MOMFUDSKI]

3. The Journal-Sentinel has become a righty

rag. They will be on the clown wagon until Roevember.

[LiberalFighter]

20. It has been a while for me. Before the Journal and Sentinel merged.

Which was crazy and which was Democratic leaning?

[C_U_L8R]

4. His acceptance or non-acceptance is irrelevant.

Trump, the election does not hinge on whatever fartgas occupies your swollen orange noggin. Stop making a fool of yourself.

[sanatanadharma]

5. His statements are a direct repudiation of the American peoples' right to vote

He does not trust the American Constitution nor populace to be good because he doesn't understand common "good".

[PlutosHeart]

31. And yet none these observations make front page news.

[BlueKota]

6. I am still keeping my fingers crossed

for tfg to have a natural causes event right before the election, so we don't have to put up with another circus post election.

[LiberalFighter]

21. The best scenario as for a death would be for it to happen the day after he loses.

[tom_kelly]

23. I agree

The media would go with the "Was Trump Assassinated" stories for years and the magas would go nuts

[LiberalFighter]

30. I don't think so. If the death was before the election then it might be.

[JoseBalow]

42. I'd much rather prefer a coma

so we can enjoy watching his dipshit offspring fight over who gets to pull the plug before his medical expenses deplete their inheritance.

[CincyDem]

7. If everything's honest equals if I win.

[Irish_Dem]

27. He is so perfect that if he loses it must be rigged.

Such a narcissist.

[mwb970]

8. What kind of moron thinks this is OK?

[NanaCat]

13. The kind who would say something like this.

nt

[Mr.Bill]

9. I hope so,

because he lost the election in 2020.

[et tu]

10. they will try everything-

he is trying to stay out of jail and he has nothing
to lose and everything to gain by fomenting his base.
all to many helpers are on board now, it may get ugly
but stay focused, unite and vote~

[Traurigkeit]

12. It will lose everything it rents and pays leases on, plus it'll lose the ability to walk 6 feet in any direction.

[Turbineguy]

14. What a coincidence!

Wisconsin voters may not accept him.

(I hope).

[riversedge]

15. We did not accept Trumpy in 2020 and we will NOT accept him in 2024!!

I am fairly confident of this. But who knows!!

[usaf-vet]

54. My Democratic votes in EVERY election since 1971 until now isn't going to change. Following in my dad's footsteps.

Mom was less outspoken but I know who she supported because we talk about elections. Especially the presidential elections.
Her last political comment was she wasn't "voting for beady eyes" aka G.W. Bush.

[usaf-vet]

55. If my math is correct that's 53 yrs of voting. And several times in those years I was on the ballot in local elections.

[prodigitalson]

16. he's not going to accept any election results in which he isn't the winner....never has never will

so here is my prediction

if he wins wisconsin he willl accept the results

if he loses he won't

pretty simple

[Blue Owl]

17. Says the man who has spent the last couple weeks in criminal court

Fuck him -- just die tRump you miserable piece of shit....

[world wide wally]

19. Trump obviously sees Wisconsin as the key to his winning the election.

Let's make that irrelevant too.

[LiberalFighter]

22. I say the odds got slimmer after 2020.

About 50,000 died each year in Wisconsin that were 65 or older.
I'm figuring about 200,000 will have died from 2020 to election day 2024. Of those, about 120,000 probably voted for Trump in 2020 and won't be able to in 2024.

[HandmaidsTaleUntold]

25. No One Gives A Shit Donny Orange Jumpsuit

WI is it’s own state. Doesn’t matter your drivel. I wouldn’t accept Alabama results but it don’t matter either. I hope this guy has a heart attack.

[bullimiami]

28. Who fugging cares.

[ck4829]

29. Why would Donald want his name on something he doesn't trust, maybe he should ask to be removed from the ballot

[PlutosHeart]

32. Writers need to correct from "warns" to "threatens".

[Harker]

34. +33.

And place something like "disgraced fascist" before and after his name.

[orangecrush]

33. Criminal defendant

Says he won't accept guilty verdict

[EarthFirst]

37. There is zero chance TSF doesn't contest at least one certified result...

That’s absolutely his plan.

[LiberalFighter]

67. Who does he have left to legally challenge the votes?

Aren't most of those attorneys disbarred or soon to be?

[ColinC]

38. I mean, what do we expect?

That he will accept a loss of an election with dignity?

[33taw]

39. Hmm, guess I will still vote!!

[Martin68]

40. That statement should disqualify his candidacy.

[Galraedia]

41. Translation: " I won't accept the election results IF I lose".

This is not exactly surprising. He still hasn't gotten over losing the last time.

[bahboo]

44. well I have an idea then....

go fuck yourself, ya orange piece of shit!

[liberal N proud]

45. He is creating the environment for his cult to rise up and attack

They will attack state houses, the capitol.

[Demsrule86]

64. And then we put down their insurrection and put them in jail. Done.

[liberal N proud]

68. That's a risk I would rather not see

[PortTack]

46. Oh it won't be just WI...good heavens

[OverBurn]

47. Doesn't matter what you think you orange asshole. The vote are the votes.

[blue-wave]

48. Sounds to me like

Trump has just conceded Wisconsin. Even though you don't have to (Biden will win) keep goin' Donnie!

[Aussie105]

49. It's so UnFair!!

Donald had a dream, and from that dream, he wrote a script.

In his dream, he became the Ruler of America, was crowned King; he would sit on the throne alongside Queen PlasticFace, and his admiring offspring, Princesses and Princes alike in their jubilant smiles and worship, would be by his side.

But you, the BitPlayers of the World, just don't follow the script!

How can his Bigly Dream come to pass?

It is so UnFair!

On the other hand, he is just an Old Man Shouting at Clouds, and can be safely ignored.
Who cares what he approves of, and doesn't?
Just need to convince some of his Bigly Confused Followers to do the same.

[Kablooie]

50. Why doesn't anyone ask him...

How will he know if the election was dishonest?
Where will he get that information and what criteria will he use to make that determination?

(Of course we know the answer. If he wins it’s honest. If he doesn’t it’s dishonest. )

[padah513]

51. And water is wet. What else is new?

[Aviation Pro]

56. And, so the fuck what, Vonschitzenpants Motherfucker

What are you going to do? Take another shit in your pants?

[truthisfreedom]

57. Good! It'll be nice that he can have such a long rap sheet.

Quite an accomplishment for an old has-been game show host.

[sakabatou]

59. Of course he wouldn't. He didn't accept national election results (and still doesn't)

[MuseRider]

61. He presumes too much.

How dare he presume we will all fold and let him, the Master of All Things, have it.

If I had ever had an inkling of support for him (hated the man and his behavior from the first thing I ever knew about him) I would have been gone long ago if for no other reason than he is too stupid to know what can be and what cannot be or he thinks we are all too stupid to know that ourselves.
