President Biden predicts that if Trump loses the 2024 election, he will not accept the results and will do anything to win.
Biden criticized Trump’s refusal to acknowledge his 2020 loss, leading to criminal indictments.
“Losers who are losers are never graceful,” Biden said. “I just think that he’ll do anything to try to win. If — and when — I win, I think he’ll contest it. No matter what the result is.”
Biden emphasized the importance of peaceful transfers of power, questioning how the country could reelect Trump.
A CBS News poll highlighted concerns about future election outcomes.
“How can we, as a democracy, elect anyone president who says violence is appropriate?” Biden said. “It’s like you’ve all become numbed by it.”
Biden’s stance on defending democracy contrasts with public opinion split on whether democracy would be safe under Trump or Biden.
Trump leads in national and swing state polls, with past examples of candidates disputing election results.
