Biden ‘not confident’ in peaceful transfer of power if Trump loses in November

President Joe Biden doesn’t believe there will be a peaceful transfer of power if former President Donald Trump loses the election.

In an excerpt of a CBS interview set to air Sunday, reporter Robert Costa asked Biden if he was confident there would be a peaceful transfer of power in January 2025.

“If Trump loses, I’m not confident at all,” Biden told Costa after first mistakenly saying, “If Trump wins.”

During the first presidential debate in June, Trump said he would “absolutely” accept the results “if it’s a fair and legal and good election.” 

Biden said he’s worried about comments Trump has made about fears Democrats will rig the election against Republicans. 

“He means what he says. We ought to take him seriously; he means it. All this stuff about ‘If we lose, it’ll be a bloodbath, stuff will happen, there will be a stolen election,’” Biden said. “Look at what they’re trying to do now in the local elections where people count the votes. Electors are putting people in place in states where they’re going to count the votes, right?” 

Trump made the “bloodbath comments” during a campaign appearance in Ohio earlier this spring. As he mourned the decline of U.S. auto manufacturing to China, the GOP leader told rally attendees he would put a “100% tariff on every car” China sells Americans and said Beijing wouldn’t “be able to sell those cars if I get elected.”

“Now if I don’t get elected, it’s going to be a bloodbath for the whole … it’s going to be a blood bath for the country,” Trump told Ohioans. 

The GOP leader has claimed Democrats took his blood bath comments out of context. Later in March, Trump railed against “the Fake News Media, and their Democrat Partners” in a post to Truth Social, saying that they “pretended to be shocked at my use of the word BLOODBATH, even though they fully understood that I was simply referring to imports allowed by Crooked Joe Biden, which are killing the automobile industry.”

One Comment

  1. Absolutely: Biden is not confident of anything. But he can still ruin the country, with Harris (Kammie the Commie) assisting. We as a country are at great risk.

    DEMOCRATS ARE TO BLAME!
