| Win or lose, President Trump will not relinquish power unless he’s crushed in the 2020 election, according to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. “We have to inoculate against that,” Pelosi told the New York Times. "We have to be prepared for that.” Pelosi became the House speaker in January after Democrats gained 40 seats in the November 2018 midterm election. She feared then that the President would challenge the results of that race if it was not decisive. "If we win by four seats, by a thousand votes each, he’s not going to respect the election,” she said. “He would poison the public mind. He would challenge each of the races; he would say ‘you can’t seat these people.’”
Among Pelosi’s concerns is that the President has suggested, without evidence, that in 2018, voter fraud may have benefited Democratic congressional candidates. He made similar remarks in 2016, again without evidence, after handily winning the presidency in the electoral college despite losing by nearly three million votes in the general election.
