Joe Biden says military would intervene if Trump refused to leave White House
2020-06-12
[NYPOST] Presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden
...Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids....
said he was "absolutely convinced" that the US military would intervene to remove President Trump from the White House if he lost his re-election bid and refused to leave.

Speaking during an interview on "The Daily Show with Trevor Noah" Wednesday night, the former vice president made the comment after being asked if he had ever considered the possibility of Trump refusing to concede the election and vacate the White House if he lost.

"Yes I have," Biden told Noah before the interview appeared to be edited and cut off.

The next frame shown in the Comedy Central appearance was of the Democrat remarking about the "many" senior military officers who had spoken out about the commander-in-chief in recent weeks, specifically the Trump administration’s response to the protests over the death of George Floyd.

"I’m promise you, I’m absolutely convinced they will escort him from the White House with great dispatch," Biden said, arguing that the military would step in if necessary to ensure a peaceful and orderly transition of power.

Biden also warned of his "single greatest concern," that "the president is going to try to steal this election."

That concern is not new for Biden.

In April, Biden warned donors during a virtual fundraiser that he believed the commander-in-chief was going to try to put off the November election despite having no legal authority to do so.

"This president, mark my words, I think he’s going to try to kick back the election somehow, come up with a rationale why it can’t be held," Biden told donors during an online fundraiser.

#8  I wouldn't count on that Joe. Especially if there are a ton of voting irregularities. If you try, you can expect a full shooting war.

#6  at this point they know they can't win, so they will try everything to muddle the vote to make it as 'close' as possible, so that they (with the help of their allies in the media) can throw doubt onto the election results.

and we all know if there is doubt in the results, it always has to go to the Dem
