US President Joe Biden has said he is not confident there will be a peaceful transition of power if Donald Trump loses the presidential election in November.
"[Trump] means what he says, we don’t take him seriously. He means it, all this stuff about ‘if we lose it will be a bloodbath’.”
Mr Trump’s comment that it would “be a bloodbath for the country” if he loses the election, made as he was talking about the auto industry in March, triggered a wave of criticism.
The Trump campaign, however, said the comment was specifically about the auto industry and had been deliberately taken out of context. It sent a fundraising email which said Trump’s political opponents and others had been “viciously” misquoting him.
Of course he’s gonna try it again, you took it far too lightly last time. Maybe Kamala will enforce the law
She is a former prosecutor and former AG. If anyone would, it’s her.

Typically, the crowds don’t fight back, or half the police force switches sides, or who knows what may happen.
