Trump Surrogates' New Argument For Not Accepting Election Results: Al Gore

[DonViejo]

Trump staffers and surrogates late Wednesday compared Trump’s jarring promise at the final presidential debate to keep voters “in suspense” about his acceptance of November's election results to former Democratic presidential nominee Al Gore’s acceptance of a recount in the state of Florida in 2000.

“No one has ever conceded an election before the election actually takes place,” spokesman Jason Miller said on Fox News. “Nobody wants an Al Gore, who goes out and concedes, and then unconcedes, and then concedes again.”

Trump's weeks of alleging the November presidential election would be “rigged,” in polling places and via voter fraud, culminated in his stunning debate answer as to whether he'd accept the election results: “I will tell you at the time. I will keep you in suspense, okay?”

Former New York City mayor and Trump supporter Rudy Giuliani denied that Trump would use what he calls biased media coverage as ground to declare the election illegitimate, but he did compare Al Gore asking for a recount in Florida to the possibility that Trump would not accept the election’s outcome.

1. If Ttump handles the election with half the grace

of Al Gore, I'll be pleasantly shocked.

But how likely is that?
