Will US President Donald Trump leave power easily even if he loses? Trump himself created suspicion.
Trump was directly questioned at the press conference. Will you hand over power peacefully if you lose? Trump's response, then, is to see what happens.
On Wednesday, he said he believed the debate over the outcome of the presidential vote could go to the Supreme Court. Because he has already expressed doubts about postal voting. And because of Corona, most states are encouraging American voters to vote in the postal ballot.
There are only 41 days left until the presidential election. In it, Trump detonated the bomb. Has created a skepticism about the transfer of power, which is a fundamental issue in a democratic system. If the incumbent president or prime minister loses the vote, he immediately relinquishes power to the winning rival. But Trump said, "I'm equally vocal about the ballot. And this ballot will be the cause of disaster. "
Not new
Trump, of course, said the same thing in 2016. He then said that he would not accept the result if he lost to his rival Hillary Clinton. Hillary said Trump is hitting the roots of democracy. But he won that vote. So there was no question of denying the result.
Now that Trump is saying, solve the ballot problem. Then you will see that everything is going on peacefully. There will be no transfer of power. Because, he will not lose.
Just last month, Hillary Clinton warned Democrat candidate Joe Biden against Trump. He said if the gap is narrow, Republicans will drop lawyers to challenge the outcome of the vote in court. So under no circumstances should Biden accept the rate.
Trump with the Supreme Court
The appointment of a Supreme Court judge before the vote is hotly debated in the United States. Biden claims that Trump cannot make serious decisions like appointing a Supreme Court judge now. Whoever becomes president after the vote will make this decision.
But Trump said the outcome of the vote could be appealed to the Supreme Court. So there needs to be nine judges. Trump's clear words, Democrats will make a scandal in the vote. An appeal will be made to the Supreme Court against that scandal. So Trump is determined to appoint a woman judge to the vacant post of Supreme Court.
Trump's objection to the postal ballot. He fears fraud there. This time the tendency to vote in the postal ballot will increase due to Corona. The chairman of the Federal Election Commission said the allegations were baseless. There is no possibility of fraud with the postal ballot.
Complaints about the postal ballot are not unheard of. Has risen in some states. According to a 2016 survey, fraud can occur at a rate of zero to zero to zero to zero to four to nine percent, which does not fall into the category of fraud.
