Democrats are telling us they will not accept a Donald Trump win. Are you listening?

 Democrats’ plan to reject a Trump win is no mirage.

Democrats are telling us they will not accept a Donald Trump win. Are you listening?  Hillary Clinton said under no circumstances should Biden concede Election Night, and Democrats should plan for weeks and months of litigation and ballot fights.

Hillary Clinton has some advice for Joe Biden: Don’t concede in a close race.

“The Red Mirage” theory, recently floated by a Democrat data firm and promoted by Axios, predicts that Trump will have a large lead on Election Night that will evaporate in the ensuing weeks as mail-in ballots are counted. It provides a ground upon which Democrats will refuse to concede the election either Election Night or even the following day. Rather, the claimed certainty that there is a wave of Biden mail-in votes yet to be counted is all Democrats will need to make a concerted post-Election Day effort to steal the election.

I wrote about this in “The Red Mirage” theory provides the justification for Democrat mischief post Election Day:

What is the significance of all this?

Democrats are going to try to steal the election after Election Day. The way they tried to steal Florida 2000 through selective recounting until the Supreme Court stopped them. If Trump is far ahead on Election Day, there will be pitched battles in swing states to count ballots in Democrat areas that arrive late or that don’t comply with the rules, and to disqualify valid ballots in Republican areas. The “Red Mirage” theory is the excuse to try.

Having spent four years perfecting resistance litigation against Trump, there is little doubt that Democrats will try to find a judge somewhere somehow who will issue an injunction or other relief to enable this theft to take place. Such relief may not ultimately prevail, but it will further the chaos.

There also was something called the Transition Integrity Project (TIP), a supposedly ‘bipartisan’ but the Republican side represented by the likes of Michael Steele and Bill Kristol, devoted NeverTrumpers. So the TIP is the Democrat/NeverTrump version of what might happen. TIP released a Report (pdf.), , and almost every scenario they outlines involves Democrat refusing to accept the Election Night result, indeed, the election result at all.

They blame Trump for Democrats refusal to accept the election in a perverse justification for planning to refuse to accept a Trump win...............To Read More.....
