US President Joe Biden said on Wednesday that does not trust in a peaceful transfer of power in the country if Republican Donald Trump loses the November 5 election.
“If Trump loses, I have no confidence at all”Biden said in an interview with CBS News when asked if he thought there would be a peaceful transfer of power after the vote.
“He means what he says. We don’t take him seriously. He means what he says.” All that talk about if we lose there would be a bloodbath”Biden added.
During a campaign appearance in March in Ohio, Trump warned of a “bloodbath” if he did not win the election. At the time he was talking about the need to protect the American auto industry from foreign competition, and later clarified that he was referring specifically to that when he used the term.
