Joe Biden has once again displayed his infamous knack for alarmism, throwing shade at the prospect of a peaceful transfer of power if Donald Trump were to lose the upcoming election. In a riveting CBS interview, the President made it clear that he is less than confident about the ability of America to handle its democratic processes without any drama. This prediction, however, seems to have more in common with his party’s history than reality.
When pressed by reporter Robert Costa about the likelihood of a smooth transition in January 2025, Biden, in a moment of clarity, stated he wasn’t optimistic—especially if Trump doesn’t win. One could almost hear the collective eye-roll from the conservative faithful as Biden seemed to imply that a loss for Trump could lead to chaos. It's funny how this sentiment echoes the Left’s usual fear-mongering tactics whenever conservatives hold power.

Biden’s comments come after Trump decisively stated during a previous debate that he would accept the election results as long as they are fair and legal. If only the same could be said about the Democrats, who seem to have initiated their own “rigged election” narrative every election cycle. Little does Biden realize that it is his party that has spent years tweaking rules and regulations in their favor, leaving many right-leaning citizens to question the integrity of elections. Hypocrisy? You bet.
The President expressed concerns over Trump’s past remarks regarding potential electoral fraud, asserting that Trump’s rhetoric should be taken seriously. Yet, it’s perplexing how Biden can throw shade at Trump while conveniently ignoring the countless instances in recent years where Democrats have questioned the legitimacy of elections themselves, often without any basis. If anyone should be worried about the “bloodbath” rhetoric, it’s Biden’s party, considering their history of protests and unrest following their electoral losses.
Trump’s “bloodbath” comments, made during a rally lamenting the decline of American auto manufacturing (thanks in part to policies like Biden’s), were sensationalized by the left as typical Trump hyperbole. The former President’s remarks about tariffs were twisted into dire predictions of violence, which are much more reflective of the Democrats’ penchant for inciting chaos over loss than anything Trump has ever proposed. It couldn’t be more clear: when it comes to the fear of losing, the Democrats have proven to be the real drama queens of American politics.
Biden’s doomsday scenario may be a diversion tactic to distract from the growing concerns surrounding his own administration’s failures. As the election cycle heats up, it’s less about who might “stir the pot” and more about how the American people have finally caught on to the games being played by the Democrats. After all, nothing says “I’m worried” quite like spreading unfounded fears about Trump’s hypothetical loss. If anyone needs to be concerned about a peaceful transfer of power, it seems like it’s time for the Left to take a long, hard look in the mirror.
