Joe Biden, however, expressed confidence that the US military would escort Trump out of the White House, if he losing the election and not recognizing the result.
“It is my biggest concern, my only biggest concern: this president will try to steal that election,” said Biden in an interview broadcast on Wednesday, quoted by Reuters.
Biden did not specify how Trump could “steal”. The politician, however, cited Trump’s opposition to postal voting and said Democrats would have lawyers present at polling stations across the country to prevent Republican efforts to suppress the vote.
The Democratic candidate said that recent statements by former military officers, who criticized Trump’s response to the protests nationals against police brutality, left him confident that the military would intervene if Trump refuses to accept the election results.
“I am absolutely convinced that they will escort you out of the White House with great readiness,” said Biden.
Tim Murtaugh, director of communications of Trump’s re-election campaign, responded to Biden’s comments. “This is just another Joe Biden brainless conspiracy theory, as he continues to undermine confidence in our elections,” said the marketer.
“President Trump has made it clear that he will accept the results of the 2020 elections,” added Murtaugh.
In 2016, candidate Trump questioned whether he would accept the result if Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton won the presidential election.
