Biden called Trump's refusal to commit to a peaceful transfer of power if he loses the election 'a typical Trump distraction' — adding that he's doing so 'to take our eye off the ball, not to talk about what's happening to the people dying.'

David Thornburgh, leader of the nonpartisan election watchdog group Committee of Seventy, told reporter Katie Meyer of NPR member station WHYY that Americans should guard against reaching any conclusion from any single episode or event.Prosecutors' ability to shade public perceptions about a suspect or an investigation is one reason they're supposed to keep silent about cases until the appropriate time, other commentators said.

The FBI and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency have warned about the prospect, among other things, aboutin the hours or days after voting ends, which could heighten the tension of a close result.

After watching Trump for 3+yrs. I wholeheartedly agree with Biden and I'm an independent voter. Trump has trashed our democracy, discarded the laws ordinary people must abide by, told endless lies on almost every issue. Do we need a leader like this. I think not.

And here lays the problem. Democrats continue to play the optimism card and not the realistic card. They've had a front row to the last 3yrs of the shit show known as the Republican political game. Bottom line, Republicans know how to play dirty and excel at it. Dems don't.

I agree with Joe!

While it's possible that Trump said it as a distraction, he does have a long history of saying the quiet part out loud. Trump is good at manipulation, but terrible at keeping his plans a secret. Biden would be wise to have a plan in place in case Trump loses and tries to stay.

Has anyone noticed how great bitcoin has been doing lately? Better than Trump's beloved stocks even

It's not a distraction. It's part of the same human rights crime spree that's killed 'the people dying.' It's a threat, it's an impeachable abuse of power, and it's grounds for every U.S. voter and politician to demand his removal from office.

A distraction from what? The 200,000 people he's killed? It's a threat, it's an impeachable abuse of power, and it's grounds for every voter and politician in the country to demand his removal from office.

The Dummycrat's have said they are going to accept the results if Trump wins. Hypocrite much?

Vote for anarchists , communists and progressives will lead to a socialist state which you can’t understand because you never experienced living in Venezuela or Cuba or Russia. Destroying America by voting for Joe.

Why is this “leaving office” been a talking point since 2016, when Hillary was so sure she would win? Do the ‘Rats think they have the election already won? They don’t and won’t !!!!

Don’t get ahead of yourself. Your not going to need it. Your a big hypocrite yourself. How dare you blame him for death, maybe you should have gotten your hands dirty digging graves during that disaster. Then you would have known it was too big to be caused by man

Oh this is funny.

This is out of the Trump playbook - he's done it his entire spoiled rich kid, useless life.

Someone needs to ask BLM is they’ll agree to peaceful transition if Trump wins. If Trump wins, they’ll be rioting, looting, and arson in every city.

rkstrong45 How tf does that correlate.. at all? 🤣 Eat it up, tho, y'all. Eat it up.

There was no peaceful transfer of power back in 2016 from Obama to Trump.

rkstrong45 Lol what?

TRUMP VIRUS Killed over 200,000 Lives!! He is Willfully PURPOSELY Encouraging the Spread of a Deadly Virus....

BULLSHIT. That is NOT what President Trump said. Now let's talk about Hillary advising Hiden not to concede under any circumstances.

Um. Didn’t Hillary tell you not to concede at all costs?

Uncle Joe the pervert, according to CNN cnn JoeBiden

Don’t be so confident Trump will leave office if he loses because he is setting it up so there will be no common trusted authority that tells us who won. Trump has done what Russia has been trying to do for years, destroy trust in our system

Yup.

At this point Biden could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I would still vote for him.

Why not just concede now Joe? You have two battles you have to win: the election, then the eviction. There’s nothing in trump’s character that suggests he’ll go calmly.

news npr refuses to tell you:

Biden's low-key campaign style worries some Democrats

Agree. It's a fear trick to divert your attention. Don't fall for it.

203,000+ Americans have died from COVID-19. Trump knew how deadly this pandemic was but downplayed it, called it a hoax. 'Pres. Trump has committed a 'life and death betrayal' of the American people.' - JoeBiden TrumpKnew VoteHimOut

While I appreciate that Biden isn't taking the bait towards escalation, I personally don't believe Trump will leave the office quietly if he can help it. He knows that he and his kin will likely wind up behind bars once they lack the protections of said office.

Groundhog Joe came out of the basement and saw his shadow TODAY, 40 days from the election. This means 4 more years of Trump!!

So true.

09/25/20 Covid19 cases 6,958,632 US Cases as of today 202,329 US Deaths since 01/20 301,923 US new cases/7 days Unemployment Aid rose to 870,000 last week Schools reinfecting Re opening reinfecting SCOTUS push through/ACA threat Non approved BLM head working 1.5 years Really?

Right now, Trump's grift is trying to convince the American voter that his/her vote is meaningless or worthless when nothing could be further than the truth.

kurteichenwald Dear JoeBiden Please don’t underestimate the crisis Trump’s malignant narcissistic behavior can cause for this democracy. Trump will do anything - Anything - to remain in power. He is not bound by the Constitution or by morality. He is driven by his mania.

This is white supremacy at its finest. Lmao. If Trump was a non-white person, there would be crazzzzzy outrage.

'adding that he's doing so TO TAKE OUR EYE OFF THE BALL, NOT TO TALK ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING TO THE PEOPLE DYING' (emphasis added) – Continued...

Good insight from Sleepy Joe!

Lol. Everyday Joe accuses Trump of something because it takes the focus off of him. He's a pathological liar. LyinHidinBiden

That could be true, but Sir please have a plan just incase. He always say what he is planing to do. Just have a plan please, be prepared. Thanks !

AND getting evicted, and going hungry, and not paying their bills, and not having any healthcare help.....Media, let's put an eye on how NOTHING IS BEING ACCOMPLISHED, IMPROVED, STABILIZED or SAFE! BECAUSE of TRUMP! GET ON IT!

Of course he will leave office when he’s voted out.... 🗣 HE DOESN’T HAVE A CHOICE.

Trump is trying to undermine the popular groundswell of early voting and voting by mail. As I said in a previous tweet, 'Right now Trump is running a campaign to discourage voting because he is all too aware of the power of voting in a free election.'
