Trump ‘Will Accept the Results of a Free and Fair Election,’ Says White House
Kayleigh McEnany, the White House press secretary, downplayed President Trump’s previous refusal to commit to a peaceful transfer of power if he were to lose the November election.

But I think that your question is more fitting to be asked of Democrats who have already been on the record saying they won’t accept the results of an election.” “Are the results legitimate only if the president wins?” “The president will accept the results of a free and fair election. He will accept the will of the American people.”
