In the last few days Donald Trump has ramped up his attempts to destroy the integrity of the 2020 presidential election by denouncing ballots of any type and refusing to commit to leaving the White House peacefully if he loses.
On Wednesday, during a presser he made that last point quite clear.
Trump: We'll have to see what happens. I've been complaining very strongly about the ballots and the ballots are a disaster.
Reporter: I understand that, but people are rioting. Do you commit to make sure there's a peaceful transfer of power?
Trump: Get rid of the ballots and you'll have a very peaceful -- there won't be a transfer frankly. They'll be a continuation.
Like every authoritarian ruler out there. Putin is his role model. He'd love not to even have an election, just a continuation of power.
Since Trump can't string together a coherent sentence most of the time, it's hard to even understand if he's talking about all ballots, some ballots, or just mail-in ballots.
So, I'm going to take him at his actual words and not rewrite what he's telling America like his sycophants do.
Then on Thursday he claimed he's not sure the election can be honest.
MSNBC's Nicole Wallace cautioned the viewer that Trump lies throughout and she will fact check him after the video rolls.
