As the United States is all set to select their next president on November 3, recent comments from reigning president Donald Trump hints at the fact that he does not believe in American democracy. The president also declined to commit to a peaceful transfer of power if he loses the upcoming presidential election.
“We’re going to have to see what happens. You know that I’ve been complaining very strongly about the ballots, and the ballots are a disaster,” said Donald Trump responding to a question about whether he would commit to a peaceful transfer of power.
The comments from Donald Trump have literally shocked political experts, as this is for the first time that a sitting president in the US is making such irresponsible comments about voting in presidential elections.
Donald Trump also criticized the mail voting system that will be introduced in the United States this year due to the coronavirus outbreak. According to Trump, widespread mail voting could lead to massive fraud.
This is not the first time that Donald Trump is commenting on his non-commitment to carry out a peaceful transfer of power. Last July, Trump similarly refused to commit to accepting the results of the presidential elections.
“I have to see. Look … I have to see. No, I’m not going to just say yes. I’m not going to say no, and I didn’t last time either,” said Trump.
However, the Joe Biden camp claimed that the American people are wise enough to escort trespassers out of the White House.
