The president of the United States, Donald Trump, suggested a possibility of discontent in the event of a defeat in the presidential election. In a briefing at the White House on the 23rd (local time), he said: “I have to see what will happen” to the journalist’s question: “Will you be sure that there will be a peaceful transfer of power after the elections?” “I have complained a lot about the (mail) votes, and those votes are a disaster,” he said.
He also said: “If the (postal) votes are eliminated, there will be no transfer of (regime) and, frankly, there will be consecutive terms,” he said. “The votes (by mail) are out of control.” It means that if there is no mail ballot, you will be re-elected. Through vote-by-mail, each statewide election committee mails ballots to voters and receives and counts ballots by mail. Trump, who sees voting by mail as unfavorable for him, has raised the possibility of manipulating votes by mail.
In a social media event that took place before the day’s briefing, Trump said: “I think this (presidential election) will end in the Supreme Court.” “This scam committed by Democrats will be referred to the Supreme Court of the United States.” They argued that the Democratic Party would vote fraudulently through a mail ballot and, as in the 2000 presidential election, when President George W. Bush won, the Supreme Court ruling was expected to determine the outcome of the election. .
Trump also said on the 26th that he will nominate Supreme Court Justice Ruth Vader Ginsburg, who died on the 18th, and said, “It is very important to have nine justices on the Supreme Court.” He said, “I don’t think it’s a good situation for the situation where (the remaining eight judges decision) is 4-4,” he said. did.
Currently, of the eight justices excluding Judge Ginsburg, a total of five, including two nominated by Trump, are classified as conservative. However, Supreme Court Justice John Roberts, who was nominated by former President George W. Bush, has also made a progressive decision on the case. That’s why Trump is in a rush to nominate Judge Ginsburg.
Earlier in mid-July, Trump said, “I think the vote-by-mail will manipulate the election” and “I have to see (if you agree with the results).” In late July, he wrote a post on Twitter that said: “Will you postpone the election until people can vote safely? Even then, Trump said, “If you apply a vote by mail, you may not know who won after the election.” However, at the time of some 40 days before the election, it once again involved “no objection to the presidential election.”
For this reason, American experts worry that after the November 3 presidential election, the result will not be judged soon and no one will win. The American news magazine The Atlantic reported in its latest issue: “Elections can separate America. In the worst case scenario, Trump is using his powers to avoid decisive consequences against him. The Atlantic said that “Trump’s legal team is already laying the groundwork for post-election strategies to avoid (without accepting) the results of the competition.” He also said that if the results of the presidential election are not summarized until January 20 of next year, which is Trump’s presidential term, “two people could appear to take the oath.”
Concerned by such a scenario, the Democratic Party initiated a “democratic protection bill” in the House of Representatives on the same day that it restricts the authority of the president. The bill, which is called the “Post Trump Reform” within the party, contained content that restricts the president’s right to pardon and declare an emergency. In a joint statement today, the seven permanent chairmen of the House of Representatives Democratic Party said: “This bill aims to prevent future abuses of power by the president, restore checks and balances and protect our elections.”
