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.

      False again

      Edit: I get it, this is one of the first time in your life when you thought you would step out and show everyone your brilliant ideas. That’s good, but you need to learn that being contrarian isn’t just opposing all external view points. Contrarians are only useful when they use rigor and data to expose weaknesses in any course of action. Hurling accusations at people is not an argument, or at least a very convincing one.
