On grounds related to his legal troubles not other grounds such as not liking his policies

Would you be OK if he won by OK I mean peaceful and the like not that you have to like it.

As in, would I accept the peaceful transition of power--yes. That is a cornerstone of American democracy, without which the very foundation of our republic would crumble.

I believe in the peaceful transition of power.

In addendum: My religious convictions are such that I do not believe in the use of violence to attain a desirable end. Christ teaches that I turn the other cheek, love my enemy, bless those who curse me, and pray for those who persecute me.

I'll never vote for Trump. Not ever. I was never much of a fan in the first place, but how he handled his exit after his first term ices it for me. Honoring the electoral process and respectful and peaceful transfer of power has been one of the hallmarks of American democracy. Until Trump. I believe he is a threat to democracy as we have known it. I can't believe the number of people willing to overlook that.

Actually, this was more aimed at the claims that if Trump loses there will likely be violence.
But it's Trump himself who says that the most and the loudest.

Usually when a candidate says “I can’t win without you”, they don’t mean “by any means necessary”, though.
