President Joe Biden used his first White House briefing appearance since taking office to threaten that the 2024 election outcome will not be “peaceful” and to smear former President Donald Trump’s concern about election integrity as “dangerous.”
“I’d like to know how you’re feeling about how this election is going,” a reporter asked Biden during his surprise appearance in the briefing room. “And then also, do you have confidence that it will be a free and fair election and that it will be peaceful?”
In spite of the lawfare, censorship, and overseas ballot harvesting already plaguing the 2024 election cycle, Biden claimed that the Nov. 5 face-off would be “free and fair.” He couched this claim, however, by reviving Democrat-led doubts that the 2024 election would be “peaceful.”
“Two separate questions. I’m confident it will be free and fair. I don’t know whether it’ll be peaceful,” Biden replied.
The Democrat claimed his fears were rooted in Trump’s questioning of the illegal election rule changes, Zuckbucks, censorship, and other interference that marred the 2020 election.
“The things that Trump has said and the things that he said last time out when he didn’t like the outcome of the election were very dangerous,” Biden said. “Have you noticed — I noticed that the vice presidential Republican candidate did not say he’d accept the outcome of the election. They haven’t even accepted the outcome of the last election So, I’m concerned about what they’re going to do.”
The reporter asked if the president’s concerns have pushed the Biden-Harris White House to make “any preparations” or get “security briefings related to domestic security.”
“I always get those briefings,” Biden replied, before White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre pivoted him to a new question.
Biden’s comments painting Trump’s concerns as “dangerous” come roughly 24 hours before the Republican presidential nominee is scheduled to return to the site of his first failed assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, for another rally.
Shortly after Trump took a bullet to the ear in the Coal State in July, Biden called for Americans to “lower the temperature in our politics.” The president, Vice President Kamala Harris, other Democrats, and the corporate media, however, have refused to abandon the violent rhetoric fueling their assassination prep campaign.
Instead, White House cabinet members like United States Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo have doubled down on calls to “extinguish [Trump] for good” because he is a “threat to democracy.”
