President Joe Biden, who decided to step out of the presidential race and endorse Vice President Kamala Harris, has warned about possible chaos during the transfer of power following the election if former President Donald Trump wins or loses.
In a recent interview on “CBS Sunday Morning” with Robert Costa on Aug. 7, Biden said: “If Trump wins, no I’m not confident at all – I mean – if Trump loses I’m not confident at all,” said Biden, initially misspeaking before correcting himself.
“He means what he says. We don’t take him seriously. He means it, all the stuff about, ‘If we lose, there’ll be a bloodbath,’ it’ll have to be a stolen election,” he added, referencing comments Trump made in March.
The Trump campaign responded to this at the time, saying the comment was about the auto industry and had been deliberately taken out of context. “[They] fully understood that I was simply referring to imports allowed by Crooked Joe Biden, which are killing the automobile industry,” Trump said at the time.
During the CNN debate in June, which triggered Biden’s candidacy crisis and eventual dropping out of the race, Trump was asked directly whether he would accept the 2024 election results. “If it’s a fair and legal and good election, absolutely,” Trump responded.
In the CBS interview, Biden addressed his decision to drop out of the 2024 presidential election, claiming that it was his “obligation to the country.”
He explained that losing the confidence of senior House and Senate Democrats, who feared his unpopularity would hurt them at the polls in November, had helped him decide to give way to a “younger” candidate.
“Although I have the great honor to be president, I think I have an obligation to the country to do the most important thing you can do, and that is we must, we must, we must defeat Trump,” he said.
The president also admitted that pressure and growing unease inside the party that he was too old for the rigors of a second term, at the age of 81, took over him. He claimed not to have taken the decision lightly as he first consulted his family at home in Delaware. At the time, he said, he still believed he could win in November.
“The polls we had showed that it was a neck-and-neck race, it would have been down to the wire. But what happened was a number of my Democratic colleagues in the House and Senate thought that I was going to hurt them in the races and I was concerned if I stayed in the race that would be the topic,” he said.

“I thought it would be a real distraction. [When] I ran the first time I thought of myself being a transition president. I can’t even say how old I am. It’s hard for me to get out of my mouth. Things got moving so quickly. And the combination was … a critical issue for me still … is maintaining this democracy.”
This was compounded, he added, by his catastrophic performance during the debate.
“I had a really bad day in that debate because I was sick. But I have no serious problem,” Biden said, denying he was impaired by any cognitive issue.
