Carl Bernstein warned President Trump may throw the election to the House of Representatives to decide in an attempt to hold onto office on CNN Monday night.
"We need a political and cultural protector in this country between now and Election Day from the president of the United States and his recklessness," Bernstein demanded.
"Everything is about the base, as he calls it, and getting the base to somehow re-elect him or get him close enough to reelection that he can then put into authoritarian practice, some kind of mechanism that will allow him to hold on to power, perhaps throw the election into the House of Representatives, which indeed is being talked about in the White House," Bernstein said.

CARL BERNSTEIN: I think we have to recognize that we have a national emergency unlike anything in our history. That national emergency is that we have a president of the United States who is demonstrably unfit, incompetent, not honest, and not capable of dealing with this horrible situation.We need a political and cultural protector in this country between now and Election Day from the president of the United States and his recklessness. People are dead because of his recklessness.
We need the political system to respond, which means Republicans particularly, because the Republicans on Capitol Hill as well as those who left the White House, they know he is not a stable individual. They have told dozens of people, they believe the president of the United States is out of control, that he is not fit to be the president of the United States.

Somehow this Bernstein guy still gets the All-Star treatment from CNN Fredo's show, still can't help himself and brought up his own HEROISM wrt Nixon 'scandal'. Wish I could puke in his face.
I smell great desperation.
Trump would lose in the house
What are they smoking?
Where in the world does Bernstein get his bizarre claims from? Fortune cookies?
Carl needs a padded cell next to Uncle Joe. . . .
these people are truly delusional...
Seek help Carl.
This guy is insane.
Woodward and Bernstein were Mark Felt’s lacky stenographers. Felt (Deep Throat) had a major league axe to grind against Nixon (he wanted to replace J. Edgar Hoover_, and Bernstein was a useful idiot for Felt’s nefarious purposes. Investigative Journalist? He was Felt’s Butt Boy.
When did this rectum start writing for the Babylon Bee?
The commie left knows they are going to lose so they are coming up with every excuse in the book..you can smell their desperation
What scenario exactly is this nut saying would put the election to the house?
An electoral tie is pretty remote.
LOL...like he would know.
Carl Bernstein - Red Diaper baby, son of two hardline communists, biased “reporter”, overpaid bum, he fits right in with what passes for the “press”.
Somebody ought to bring Carl up to speed. Obama's not President anymore.
Exactly, now the sap lefty reporters sit around in their pj's getting emails from various Deep State lefty whistle blower leakers trying to get noticed.
Funny, I read today that Laurence Tribe is saying that if we keep counting votes well into January the House can coronate Queen Nancy.
Presumed to be a lie.
If is a Leftist source, the presumption is it is a lie and the presumption can only be refuted by clear and convincing evidence to the contrary.
When it comes to Leftist reports and assertions, the burden of proof is on the Left to show clearly and convincingly their report or assertion is not a lie.
Why do you say he would lose in the House?
I would think he would be almost-guaranteed a win in the House.
