NYMag: Obama Had a Secret Plan in Case Trump Rejected 2016 Election Results
In October 2016, senior staff in the Obama White House discussed what they should do if Hillary Clinton won the November election and Donald Trump refused to accept the result as legitimate. They had cause to be worried. At that time, Trump had openly speculated that the election might be “rigged.” During his final debate with Clinton on October 19, he said that his opponent “should never have been allowed to run” and declined to answer the question of whether he would concede. “I’ll keep you in suspense,” the Republican nominee said.
“It wasn’t a hypothetical,” Ben Rhodes, Obama’s senior aide and speechwriter, told Intelligencer. “Trump was already saying it on the campaign trail.”

The secret plan, as it is here called, represents a plan should Trump carry out his threat. For you to go to another level and dump on Obama/Hillary/Russian investigation reveals an attempt to deny what is truly simple and straightforward and not simply the iceberg of a game Hillary and Obama playing no matter what took place.After all, it was UNDER Trump that Rosenstein, Justice Dept., order the Mueller investigation.
Did these guys ever have time to run the country? O on down were scheming on how to cheat and beat Trump. Someone needs serve some time to send a very clear signal this will not be tolerated.
You are fake news WNU. No mention of Soros or his Antifa army planning white genocide and confiscating baby Jesus.
Fake News.
Yes. they had time to run the nation. Just look at how much time has spent when not playing golf to write executive orders to undo what Obama had put in place...and not replace it with, say, a health plan as promised or infrastructure plan, as promised.
It is so nice not having that absurd degenerate Fred trolling the Blog lately.
Dear M.P.
is that all you have, a 5th-grade insult?
Dear All; this topic should be take seriously and not used to insult each other. This issue has serious implications and IF Obama and Hillary conspired to trap Trump into false allegations to concede power; this is VERY bad shit. I don't much care about some agreement to get him to concede if he had lost a valid election, seems like prudent thing based on (now lies) intel and this is at the heart of the issue. I am very sickened by this notion but have read enough world history to understand this is possible.
If I read the post correctly, it states that IF TRUMP would not go along with a win by Hillary that was perfectly legal, then action would have to be taken to make sure that the nation continued to function in the way it was meant to. That simply put means that Trump would be acting illegally. Now pwerhaps we are so caught up in our hates, one side against the other, so let us put it in a different manner:
In, say, a European nation, there is an election. The winner is announced but the loser decides he does not like the outcome and so refuses to concede and tries to get into power. The real winner, sensing that this might occur, makes plans to ensure that all legal and constitutinal mandates are carried out.
That is clear. But in our peculiar way, we are now seeing this as some conspiracy by Obama/Hillary when in fact there were none and the legal winner took office and the loser conceded.
Yep there WAS violence, rioting and looting, from the democrats!!
Tell it to Bernie, Fred. Was he not eliminated by machinations of the HRC and DNC crowd?
I'd say that from what we have experienced of the DNC and HRC's efforts to win the last presidential election and to overturn the results by some, there is evidence enough to think in terms of conspiracies. How quickly you forget, Fred; Brennan, Clapper, McCabe, lesser players Page, Strzok, the Fusion crowd, all trying to drum up an impeachment situation and thus see Trump removed as a result of that impeachment.
When we read the headline, we all knew Fred would be commenting.
Yes, we did.
The question put to Trump was a gotcha question. It was done to make him m look extreme or depress Republican turnout.
We all knew Obama was dirty. Here is a another notch ion the counting stick proving it.
