- 8 years ago
On Thursday, President Obama commented on Trump's recent remarks about election results.
Towards the end of Wednesday’s presidential debate, Donald Trump was asked if he intends to accept the election results, regardless of the outcome.
Trump, who has been quite vocal about his belief that the election is being rigged, declined to make any such commitment, saying only that he’ll see when the time comes.
On Thursday, President Obama commented on the matter while speaking to a crowd at a Hillary Clinton rally in Miami Gardens, Florida.
He said, "...that is dangerous because when you try to sow the seeds of doubt in people's minds about the legitimacy of our elections,that undermines our democracy...then you are doing the work of our adversaries for them, because our democracy depends on people knowing their vote matters."
Obama also noted about Trump, "he doesn't even worry what he says is true, this is just about him worried that he's losing."
