Michigan’s Democratic Senate nominee said he’s concerned that Donald Trump and GOP Senate candidate Mike Rogers “are not committed to the institution of our democracy.”

Michigan’s Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed said his fellow Democrats need to “win by massive numbers” in the upcoming midterm elections so the result “is unquestionable.”

“Donald Trump has already threatened to do what he did in 2020, which is deny the outcomes of an election,” El-Sayed told NBC News’ “Meet the Press” in an interview that aired Sunday.

Asked by NBC News on Saturday whether he would accept the results of the midterm elections no matter who wins, Trump said, “Of course I will. But we don’t want cheating.”

    It’s crazy that the election denial was about the 2020 result since the Trump admin was in charge at the federal level and the GOP in charge in most of the Governors offices in many battleground states. They never complain when they win and always want to ignore that they are the ones running the elections they lose. Sometimes they throw out hanging chads too.
