During his first interview since dropping out of the 2024 presidential race, President Joe Biden stated Tuesday that he was “not confident at all” that there will be a peaceful transfer of power if former President Donald Trump loses via Deadline.
“He means it, all the stuff about, if we lose there will be a bloodbath,” Biden told CBS News‘ Robert Costa in an interview today. An excerpt was shown on CBS News 24/7’s America Decides, and the full interview will air on CBS Sunday Morning.
“Look at what they are trying to do now in the local election districts where people count the votes, electing or putting people in place that are going to count the votes, right?” Biden said. “You can’t love your country only when you win.”
Costa stated that the interview “was bracing, in his perspective, for a moment in time that’s just on the horizon, should Trump be defeated, where this country is not just going to have a kind of merry walk toward January 2025. A peaceful transfer of power is the core of the American democratic process.”
It has been noted that as of yet, new Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris has not done a sit-down interview since entering the presidential race, nor has her new running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, since he was selected. But there is some expectation that there will be one before the convention, as has been typical for a presidential ticket in the past.
Speaking to reporters earlier, Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance held a press conference and criticized Harris for not doing one of her own.
