“The guy is not a democrat with a small d,” the president told CNN’s Erin Burnett.
President Joe Biden said in an interview Wednesday he is all but certain Donald Trump, his predecessor and presumptive 2024 rival, will reject the results of the November election and called Trump “dangerous” for the nation.
“The guy is not a democrat with a small d,” Biden told CNN’s Erin Burnett during a visit to Wisconsin this week.
“How many court cases do they have, Supreme Court cases? They’ve all said this is a totally legitimate election. … He may not accept the outcome of the election? I promise you he won’t. Which is dangerous.”
The president went on to say other world leaders had expressed to him their fear of a second Trump presidency and pointed to Trump’s pledge to prosecute his political opponents if he enters the Oval Office once more.
There are very important differences and I am NOT saying both sides are the same generally. I sincerely hope Trump loses. But one thing in common: Neither side will accept losing.
If Biden wins, the GOP will say the election was rigged.
If Trump wins, the WMP will say the election was rigged.
100.00% chance
Don’t you think you could give a shred of evidence for why you feel you can both-sides this? Though I have a feeling your supporting argument for this will be a painfully bad take.

Its a prediction not an argument
Under no circumstances will we see the truth of both predictions
Hopefully Biden will win and we’ll see whether the GOP accepts it. That would be the evidence for half.
If God forbid Trump wins, we’ll have evidence whether the WMP accepts it. That would be evidence for the other half.
I would LOVE to be wrong, but sometimes that’s how the human scientific process works. We make a prediction THEN look at the evidence to see if we were right
A baseless prediction is of no value whatsoever. A theory with no evidence to support your claims is not worth anyone’s time or consideration. But please, continue lecturing us about the scientific method.
Not sure “lecturing” is accurate but sure, I’ll allow it.
For the record, is it your claim that if Trump wins, we will just accept it as the results of a free and fair election? Just “Welp, guess the voters were in your favor this time Donnie. Good game. We’ll try to bring it in four years!” right?
Also for the record we agree that Trump could get no states and 30% of the popular vote and still say it was fixed and he should have won right? Honestly that’s the result I predict most likely so the experiment will likely be of no value. Just saying.
It’s just my prediction bro! But there is a 100.00% chance. That’s right, it’s definitely going to happen, but I can’t say why. But we’ll just have to see what happens! It’s called science, ever heard of it?
Heh, fair. I do think 9999/10,000 is about right but I don’t know you enough to trust you enough to make odds.
Tell you what. One sided free money bet. If you claim WMP will just say “Well, guess we lost this one” and not say the race was rigged (is this your claim? You still haven’t claimed it yet I think) I’ll come back in November with a post titled “CoggyMcFee I’m Calling You Out!” linking this post.
If Biden wins, so much the better for the world. If GOP doesn’t accept it we’re both winners, no trade. If GOP accepts it we’re both losers, no trade.
If Trump wins, God help us, and WMP just says “Congratulations, hope we win next time” I’ll give $500 to your favorite charity, or half that to anyone I can’t write off, yourself included.
If Trump wins and WMP says the election was rigged, well, you haven’t agreed to anything and owe me nothing. If you feel honor bound, my charity is OSI the Open Space Institute.

If I forget call my ass out. If Trump wins frankly we have bigger problems but I’ll pay.
The Windows Media Player?
Haha Democrats
We’re WMP Republicans are GOP. Probably stands for something but just shorthand
It’s not a good shorthand if you can’t define it.
Fair. I didn’t invent them. I could backronym them maybe. Grumpy Old Party and Workers Matter Party?
Those do work pretty well.
If I say I don’t think both sides are the same, but then say both sides are the same, you won’t notice…
Okay, I love these games… How about… No backsies no come tos! What’s next??
Huh?
I don’t know if you’re really defending the GOP here, but even though neither of us will accept losing, let’s see:
They don’t respect trans people
They don’t respect women’s rights
They don’t want to help the poor…
But tell me more about them being the same as us because we both won’t accept election results
Lol I don’t think the sides are the same in any way shape or form for the reasons you mention and more. I’ll vote the hell out of a full DNC ballot any day any time. I’m lucky to be in SF where even within the mainstream party, local and state offer progressive options, so I haven’t had to vote third party much over the years.
My point was the above comment was like “I’m not gonna do this thing” “okay, so I’m doing this thing” “and now my point is proven bc I didn’t do the thing” Have you seen the Rick James couch skit on Chappelle? It’s like that.
Haha yeah, good bit.
I just wanted to be clear that just because we’re both going to deny the election results if we lose doesn’t mean we’re at all similar in other regards.
Sorry if I was a little defensive. Lot of “BWAH I DONT LIKE THIS” in the comments but zero “Actually I think we’ll just say ‘Well done Donnie, enjoy being president. See you in four years.’. Not even “Well if HE wins then it actually WILL have been rigged so of course we’ll call it that.”. All " boo” no content
