In his first interview since he dropped out of the race, the president says he is concerned about the transfer of power.

US President Joe Biden has said he is not confident there will be a peaceful transition of power if Donald Trump loses the presidential election in November.

"[Trump] means what he says, we don’t take him seriously. He means it, all this stuff about ‘if we lose it will be a bloodbath’.”

Mr Trump’s comment that it would “be a bloodbath for the country” if he loses the election, made as he was talking about the auto industry in March, triggered a wave of criticism.

The Trump campaign, however, said the comment was specifically about the auto industry and had been deliberately taken out of context. It sent a fundraising email which said Trump’s political opponents and others had been “viciously” misquoting him.

    Yeah it’s pretty obvious to everyone that it’s all or bust for trump. He’s desperate. Nothing to lose.

    They’re already strategising how to steal the election. They’re already on record saying they know exactly who to call when it’s time to validate the results from each state.
