If the Orange Avenger Loses on Nov. 8......

[ideologyhunter]

If Trump loses on Nov. 8, will he make a traditional (generous) concession speech, or will he go out screaming and cussing? My guess:
1. He won't concede on Tues. night. He'll fly somewhere on Wed. and have an Event.
2. He'll indeed go down screaming -- just like when he used to get pulled out of the sandbox to eat lunch in 1949. It'll be a pig show.
3. He will tell the crowd the election was rigged and get them churning and shrieking. There will be long minutes of "Lock her up!"
4. He will blame the party for not supporting him (true) and the press for misrepresenting his Messiahship (that's actually a word.)
5. There will be no mention of the fact that, in Trump's view, Romney proved himself a "choker" by losing to Obama.
Myself, I'm Jonesing terribly to see this guy lose -- to a WOMAN.

In his case a gracious concession, or anything gracious for that matter, would be the last thing I'd expect.

3. He will tell the crowd the election was rigged...

He's going to be making more and more statements along those lines as November approaches.

He'll never make a concession speech. He'll scream and spit that he was proven right about the rigging, and Hillary stole the election, too.

And someone will take pot shots at the Inauguration...

Well, Trump is already claimed that the election is rigged. When Romney lost, Trump claimed that it was rigged. Trump encouraged him to continue fighting. Trump is a conspiracy nut.

His speech will be a distinctively Donald speech that while he feels for the average working white folk that can't make it, he's got his slice of the pie and will enjoy the remainder of his days being a pig, taking, taking, taking, just not so much in the media spotlight.
-or-
He'll take a good long look in the mirror and blow his fucking brains out.

Doesn't trying to turn crowds to violence against a President constitute sedition or some shit? I'd love to see HIM locked up...

In older times I would imagine his promise to prosecute Clinton would open him up to little sympathy from different dems and neutrals if he got prosecuted himself. He has no moral highground since he opened that can of worms. Not enough smart enough to be subtle. Fuck him.

Honestly, a landslide impeachment in his first year would be more of a laugh though. But we would be stuck with Pence who seems to the right of Cruz. The Dem base might not want that maybe that is Trump's (or someone smarter than him) long game with that pick.

Hearing Trump's impeachment and conviction press conference would the ultimate Schadenfreude. Someone needs to script it now.

 

[ZiprHead]

I'm going to go against the grain here and say he will make a gracious concession speech.

 

[repoman]

He probably will do it if there is a gambling line on his style of speech
