NEW: Donald Trump is STILL Pushing Baseless Election Denying Lies and Refusing to Commit to Accepting November’s Results Arrow

In response to Donald Trump refusing to commit to accepting the results of this November's election while once again spewing lies about his loss in the 2020 election, DNC Rapid Response Director Alex Floyd released the following statement:

"Donald Trump knows he's running a losing campaign that is centered around an extreme, unpopular, and dangerous agenda - that's why he is already trying to cast doubt on the results of this November's election, just like he did after he lost by over seven million votes in 2020. Trump is hellbent on attacking our democracy, threatening political violence, and promising a 'bloodbath' if he loses in November, but the American people are having none of it. Every time Trump opens his mouth, he makes it clear that democracy is on the ballot and gives voters yet another reason to make him a loser once again this November."

NEW: Donald Trump defended his denial of the 2020 election results and refused to commit to accepting the results of this November's election.

Interviewer: "There have been other close races and men have said, 'listen, for the betterment of the country, we're going to move on, we're going to accept the results of the election.' Would that have been the right course of action?"

Trump: "No, it would've been a terrible thing."

Interviewer: "Would you accept the results of this election?"

Trump: *refuses to say yes*

NBC News: "Re-litigating the 2020 election, repeating false claims it was stolen and casting aspersions on the security of mail voting remain major fixtures for [Trump] on the stump. … He regularly refers to the 2020 election as 'rigged' on his social media channels."

Associated Press: "Trump, running for the White House for the third time, has signaled that the 2020 election will remain an integral part of his 2024 presidential bid."

Trump continues to praise and promise pardons for violent January 6 rioters - who he calls "hostages" and "patriots."

​​Washington Post: ​​"Former president Donald Trump on Thursday praised and embraced a woman convicted of defying police orders on the U.S. Capitol grounds on Jan. 6, 2021. … Trump has steadily escalated his advocacy for people charged in the Capitol riot, including by pledging to pardon them if he returns to the White House, praising them as patriots, participating in a recording with Jan. 6 prisoners singing the national anthem, and playing it at his first rally of the 2024 campaign last month."
