"Well, we have to see what
happens," Trump, said at a White House press conference when asked if he
adhered to the basic tenets of democratic governance in the United States in
terms of peaceful transfer of power. Change of President.
Biden, who has a strong lead over
Republicans in the polls ahead of the Nov. 3 vote, expressed distrust.
"What country are we in?" The
former vice president said this when asked by reporters about Trump's comments.
"Look, he says very irrational
things. I don't know what to say."

criticizes Trump's numerous but rare party, added that any hesitation in
guaranteeing a basic constitution is unimaginable and unacceptable.

democracy is the peaceful transfer of power without which Belarus exists."
- 'Get rid of the ballot' -
Trump followed his remarks - unusual in
modern times for an American president.
"You know, I've been complaining
about the belt, and the belt is a disaster," he said, referring to the
increasing use of mail in the belt, apparently due to coronavirus epidemics.
Trump often claims that the ballots are
being rigged’ and that he is being encouraged by Democrats to rig the election.
However, there is no evidence that ballots
sent through the Postal Service have ever led to significant fraud in the US
election.
At the press conference, Trump, apparently
expecting a large number of ballots sent by letter, kept announcing that he
would remain in power under such circumstances.
"Get rid of the ballot and you have
to be very peaceful - there will be no clear transition. There will be
continuity," he said.
Trump's recent insistence that free and
fair presidential elections cannot take place is because, under pressure, he is
pushing for a new, right-leaning justice in the Supreme Court.
Trump is set to be nominated’ on Saturday
as a replacement for the late Liberal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died
last week.
His Republican Party, which won a majority
in the Senate, is expected’ to confirm the nominee immediately.
If he succeeds, the new justice court will
likely support conservatives for years to come.
Democrats are crying foul, saying the process should wait until the election results come out, allowing the winner to
form the Supreme Court.
Trump and Republicans have raised a series
of lawsuits challenging the use of the mail in the ballot, with election
results considered more likely.
On Wednesday, Trump said he thinks the election will "end in the Supreme Court."
