Biden Says Not Confident in Peaceful Transfer of Power if Trump Loses

A clip from an upcoming CBS interview with President Joe Biden depicts the president claiming that he thinks there will be civil unrest if Donald Trump loses  the presidency in 2024. 

Biden, who is obviously declining with senility and could not manage to get through a June 27 debate without slurring and making incoherent statements, said he’s “not confident at all” that there will be a peaceful transfer of American power if the former President does not win the White House. 

To support this, Biden relied on a favorite tactic: lying. Biden has repeatedly furthered the lie that Trump praised neo-nazis at a rally in Charlottesville Virginia (Trump did not), and that Trump refused to visit an American WWII cemetery in Europe because Trump did not have respect for “losers and suckers.” This rumor has no credibility, but Biden repeats it frequently, as he did in the June 28 debate. 

It is not clear if the president understands that he is not telling the truth. 

Biden’s latest lie to CBS was to claim that Trump threatened a “bloodbath” in America if he did not win the presidential race. This is not true. Trump made the bloodbath remark as a reference to what he believed would happen to America’s finances if Democrat policies continued to crush the auto industry under increasing regulations. 

None of this stops Biden from repeating falsehoods that reliably scare left-leaning voters. In the clip, Biden states, “He means what he says. . . all that stuff about if we lose there’ll be a bloodbath.” He also remarked, oddly, that the Trump camp is putting observers into states to ensure that votes are counted accurately. It seems Biden may incorrectly believe there is something illegal or nefarious about political parties checking the vote to ensure accuracy. 

During the disastrous-for-Biden June debate, Trump said he would accept the results of the fall election “if it’s a fair and legal and good election.”

The full Biden interview will air on CBS this coming Sunday.
