Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel worries that former President Donald Trump may not accept the results of the upcoming general election if he loses — in part because of whom he might lose to.

“My belief is this: If Donald Trump had such a difficult time conceding that he lost to another older White man, he is definitely not going to be OK in the event that he loses a presidential election to a younger Black woman,” Nessel told reporters Monday, referencing Vice President Kamala Harris’ expected place at the top of the Democratic ticket. “And I am very concerned about what plans he and his allies might have to be disruptive to the 2024 election.”

[...]

“He’s already said if he doesn’t win, it’s because it was stolen. And I mean, that is so frightening — ‘Either I win, or it’s not fair,’” she said.

I'd be so fucking happy if he lost by a massive margin. By, like, 30 points difference, 65 to 35. Probably impossible unless Republicans are so disenfranchised and embarrassed that they stay home. exceedingly unlikely because they have no empathy, cannot comprehend hypocrisy, and barely process shame. They make up less than 30% of the total population but they're usually 100% committed to vote EVERY TIME.
