President Obama dismissed GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump's comment this week that the election may be "rigged" this year.
"Of course the election will not be rigged! What does that mean?" Obama said at a news conference at the Pentagon. "That's ridiculous. That doesn't make any sense."
The president added Americans should not take Trump's musings on this seriously. "We do take seriously, as we always do," the president said, "our responsibilities to monitor and preserve the integrity of the voting process."
On a Monday campaign stop in Ohio, Trump told voters: "I'm afraid the election's going to be rigged. I have to be honest."
Obama today equated Trump's comments to children in the schoolyard complaining about a loss "before the score is even tallied."....
