President Trump fails to be worthy of the office

President Trump again refused to commit to a peaceful transition of power if he lost the election to VP Joe Biden in the debate last night. I think this is one of many very disturbing parts of the debate. Time described The Biggest Moments From the First Presidential Debate and this was one of them.

In a stunning break from norms and a display of non-respect for how elections are conducted, Trump continued to feed doubts about the integrity of the election. He refused to say that he would accept the results, urged his supporters to be vigilant and declined to tell his allies to remain peaceful if the results came into question.

Biden, by contrast, said he would accept the results, whether he wins or loses.

One of the hallmarks of our democracy is the peaceful transition of power as we change presidents. President Trump has refused to commit to this several times. It is such a big issue I asked earlier if this is Impeachable behavior?

Such a failure. Think about this when you vote.
