Republican nominee Donald Trump’s suggestion that he may not accept the result of the presidential election makes him a “sore loser,” his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, said Sunday.
{mosads}”To say you won’t respect the results of the election — that is a direct threat to our democracy. The peaceful transfer of power is one of the things that makes America, America,” Clinton said at a rally at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.
“And look, some people are sore losers, and we just got to keep going,” she added.
Trump stunned viewers during the final presidential debate of 2016 when he said he would leave people in suspense about whether he would accept the election result.
He has since doubled down on that rhetoric, saying at a rally last week that he would gladly accept the result — but only if he won.
