Is it just me, or does it seem like Trump gets dumber by the day?

Unless he wins the election he will not believe the results. What a pompous ass!

You do realize that most candidates have expressed the same opinion in the past? Most prominently Al Gore who spent a month after the 2000 elections doing everything he could to get a new vote.....it's called politics

Oh have they? I suppose the problem with the voting machines in Florida (hanging chads, remember those?) had NOTHING to do with Gore's decision?
Oh so when he did it it was justified. Only when someone you don't like does it is it "dumb"

@LacaTheSecond: May I REMIND you, the election has not even taken place yet. Therefore, for him to say it BEFORE the fact is, well, DUMB.
@Meowsolini: Considering he's running against the single most corrupt candidate in the last few decades no. The very fact that the media is directly working with the Clinton camp is more than enough for reasonable doubt.

Yeah yeah. That's what the wingers are being fed today. No dude. What Trump did ISN'T politics. Not even close.

Since I'm guessing you haven't really looked in to what went down with the 2000 election, here's a good bullet pointed list.

BTW...you should check out Gore's concession speech too. But only if you want to see what real patriotism looks like.

1. On election night, several television networks called Florida for George W. Bush, clinching the electoral college — although Gore would end up winning about 500,000 more votes. Gore called Bush to concede.

2. Then the networks uncalled Florida — and Gore unconceded, realizing that he was ahead in the popular vote and if he ended up winning Florida he would have won the election. The election was literally too close to call.

3. A legally mandated recount began.

4. Bush (not Gore) sued to stop recounts in some counties.

5. Gore sued to extend deadlines for recounts.

6. The Florida Supreme Court ordered a more extensive recount. Bush (not Gore) appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court.

7. The U.S. Supreme Court stopped the recount.

8. Gore conceded.
