Onetime GOP Sen. Rick Santorum argued on CNN on Saturday night that President Donald Trump won’t simply concede because he lost the presidential race.

“I just want to say that what wearing hearing from the Trump White House is the president is willing to concede if certain conditions are met,” Santorum said on CNN hours after the race had been called.

Some said it "looks like a hostage negotiation."

Others pointed out that "the third stage of grief is negotiation."

Others noted that "a concession is not necessary, that Trump will have to leave on Jan 20."

1. No plea bargains!

Go directly to jail. Do not collect $200 for passing Go.

No get out of jail free cards!

Lock his fat ass up for life!

11. I absolutely agree

I still say he should be removed with the 25th Amendment, and I doubt Pence has a clean slate. His own indiscretions, such as having knowledge of orangeloser's criminal acts, should be used a leverage to be sure that Pence doesn't even think about pardoning him.

Realistically, Pence stands no chance of ever becoming President on his own. This would allow him to hold the title for two months.

16. Yes, he is extremely dangerous!

He just fired the person overseeing our national nuclear weapons stockpile!

18. Are you serious? That means he'll probably give russia all the info they could ever dream

of. He's been working for the russians since before he got the white house. He's going to give putin the codes.

20. Absolutely serious!

22. Thanks, SheltieLover. I had not seen this post.

23. The intelligence community should do what they always do when they find a suspected Russian asset

Feed him bad information and wait for it to show up in Russia.

25. There will be plea bargains for the GOP, but not Trump.

Biden signaled that clearly. He wants to forget past bad blood and move forward. We’ll see if the GOP takes him up on that, but I doubt it. Biden will get some traction because he’s white and a Senatorial institution unto himself, but only a little.

I don’t expect anyone from Biden’s Administration to touch the Trump family in any way. They will be cast out and whatever legal problems they face, Biden will allow, but not hunt for specifically.

This is going to piss off many on the Left, but its what will happen. Just like Obama not going after W and his people for war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan.

2. 'Negotiate' a concession speech? Shove it up your ass, donwald

[doc03]

3. How did that moron get elected Senator? nt

[yellowcanine]

4. That's what a lot of us native Pennsylvanians asked at the time.

He had a lot of support from "Concerned" Women for America as I recall.

[PCIntern]

6. I know he got re-elected from the inside, and it was not pretty

I knew the Dem kingmaker in Philly and they essentially deliberately threw the election. He could easily have been defeated.

10. Why does CNN put him on their shows?

Who gives a shit what Splat thinks?

[doc03]

15. He couldn't get a job at Fox so he was the only Republican available

[Rorey]

5. Honestly, I'd rather he not give a concession

He's just solidifying what an immature, classless oaf he is. I mean, we already knew that, but he can't even bring himself to fake it.

It's really just becoming a game to see how long he'll go, if ever. And the longer he takes, the more immature he looks.

7. Ok Trump

here are your conditions. You and your icky, creepy family will be out the door of our house January 20, 2021. Gone. Leave it like you found it. Get your tacky crap out so we can fumigate and remove all traces and memories of you living there. Oh yes. Put the portraits back up you tiny handed, ego driven baby and skedaddle out for your lifetime of being sued and hopefully ending in years of prison. THOSE are your conditions.

IOW, grow the fuck up and try to act like a real man for once in your disgusting life. K?

8. I hope the media doesn't spend too much time on asking this Question

Instead they just need to report that it doesn't matter if Trump concedes or agrees to a transition . He will be gone either way .

We don't need him to say anything or do anything for him to leave.

The american people already made the decision that he will leave . It's up to him how that will happen but the fact he will be gone is already decided.

24. Once again the media falls for it

Probably asking, "what do the Democrats have to do to get (Dotard) to concede?" as if there is a real issue there.

9. Turn off CNN

When they have these has been hacks on and include Kasich in that bunch. Is this all the better CNN can do? Or do they get them cheap? Get them the hell off the air. They serve no purpose.

12. Senatorfrothymixsaidwhat?

[Autumn]

13. Those conditions have already been met. We dumped his fat orange ass.

[TheBlackAdder]

14. Why is that guy even relevant? He was a two-bit congressman that is just a bullshitter.

.

It's amazing that he parlayed that into a life-time TV speaking gig.

The fucking people at MSNBC and then CNN were duped by him, the way Trump dupes the rubes.

CNN always fights for legitimacy, then they parade that fool out and delegitimize themselves again.

17. He does not have to concede.

He lost and we've moved on. As team Biden said, come January, we know how to get rid of trespassers. At the point, I really don't care if he concedes or not.

19. Hostage negotiation?
