- Biden referenced Trump's previous comment
- The Trump campaign said the comment was taken out of context
- Biden emphasized the importance of accepting election results
US President Joe Biden expressed concerns about a peaceful transition of power if Donald Trump loses the presidential election in November.
In an interview with CBS News, Biden stated, “If Trump loses, I’m not confident at all” about a peaceful transition.
He referenced Trump’s previous comment about a potential “bloodbath” if he loses the election, which sparked criticism and accusations of threatening democracy.
The Trump campaign clarified that the comment was taken out of context and referred to the auto industry.
Biden has previously raised concerns about Trump’s willingness to accept the election results, citing his unfounded claims of election fraud in 2020 and the subsequent storming of the Capitol building.
In the interview, Biden also hinted at efforts to complicate post-election certification processes, but did not provide specific details.
He emphasized the importance of accepting election results, saying, “You can’t love your country only when you win.”
