ā€œThe guy is not a democrat with a small d,ā€ the president told CNNā€™s Erin Burnett.

PresidentĀ Joe Biden said in an interview Wednesday he is all but certainĀ Donald Trump, his predecessor and presumptive 2024 rival, will reject the results of the November election and called Trump ā€œdangerousā€ for the nation.

ā€œThe guy is not a democrat with a small d,ā€ Biden toldĀ CNNā€™s Erin Burnett during a visit to Wisconsin this week.

ā€œHow many court cases do they have, Supreme Court cases? Theyā€™ve all said this is a totally legitimate election. ā€¦ HeĀ mayĀ not accept the outcome of the election? I promise you he wonā€™t. Which is dangerous.ā€

The president went on to say other world leaders had expressed to him their fear of a second Trump presidency and pointed to Trumpā€™s pledge to prosecute his political opponents if he enters the Oval Office once more.

    Huh?

    I donā€™t know if youā€™re really defending the GOP here, but even though neither of us will accept losing, letā€™s see:

    They donā€™t respect trans people

    They donā€™t respect womenā€™s rights

    They donā€™t want to help the poorā€¦

    But tell me more about them being the same as us because we both wonā€™t accept election results

      Lol I donā€™t think the sides are the same in any way shape or form for the reasons you mention and more. Iā€™ll vote the hell out of a full DNC ballot any day any time. Iā€™m lucky to be in SF where even within the mainstream party, local and state offer progressive options, so I havenā€™t had to vote third party much over the years.

      My point was the above comment was like ā€œIā€™m not gonna do this thingā€ ā€œokay, so Iā€™m doing this thingā€ ā€œand now my point is proven bc I didnā€™t do the thingā€ Have you seen the Rick James couch skit on Chappelle? Itā€™s like that.

        Haha yeah, good bit.

        I just wanted to be clear that just because weā€™re both going to deny the election results if we lose doesnā€™t mean weā€™re at all similar in other regards.

        Sorry if I was a little defensive. Lot of ā€œBWAH I DONT LIKE THISā€ in the comments but zero ā€œActually I think weā€™ll just say ā€˜Well done Donnie, enjoy being president. See you in four years.ā€™. Not even ā€œWell if HE wins then it actually WILL have been rigged so of course weā€™ll call it that.ā€. All " booā€ no content
