This isn't a joking matter, & the Democratic nominee must be prepared for it. Trump has repeatedly signaled that he'll reject the legitimacy of any loss because conceding leaves him vulnerable to prosecution. He already rejected his 2016 popular vote loss by blaming bogus fraud
Buttigieg's full answer is no more satisfactory: He was asked what he'd do if Trump refuses to recognize an election defeat, & his response was to say we need to win so big that doubt is unstainable. That's a great hope, but it doesn't answer the question rawstory.com/2020/02/buttig…
The law doesn’t enforce itself, as countless disputed elections in other countries have shown. If Trump & right-wing media refuse to accept a legitimate loss & incite his base, November is going to be dangerous. And imagine if John Roberts is determining the “lawful” victor
