During an interview with Fox News anchor Chris Wallace that aired Sunday, President Trump refused to commit to accepting the results of the 2020 election, slammed mail-in voting and called polls showing him trailing former Vice President Joe Biden “fake”
Presented with a Fox News poll showing him trailing Biden by 8 points, Trump told Wallace, “first of all, I'm not losing, because those are fake polls."
Wallace asked Trump “can you give a direct answer that you will accept the election?”
“I have to see,” Trump said of accepting the result in November. “I have to see. No, I’m not going to just say yes. I’m not going to say no, and I didn’t last time either.”
The comments echo Trump saying at a 2016 presidential debate “I will tell you at the time. I will keep you in suspense,” about whether he would accept the results of that election, which he followed up with the statement, “I will totally accept the results of this great and historic presidential election if I win.
Trump has repeatedly dismissed polls showing him down by wide margins as “fake” and “suppression polls,” instead citing anecdotal metrics like boaters and motorcyclists with Trump flags as evidence of enthusiasm.
