The president of the United States hopes that the Supreme Court of the United States will rule on the outcome of the November elections. Without electoral fraud, there would be no change of power.

US President Donald Trump has refused to guarantee a peaceful transfer of power after the November elections. “We have to wait and see what happens,” Trump said Wednesday at a news conference at the White House. A journalist had previously asked him if he would guarantee a peaceful transfer in the event of “victory, defeat or draw” in the “here and now” elections. Republican Trump will compete against his challenger Joe Biden of the US Democrats in the November 3 elections.
In his response, Trump again warned against fraud with a view to increasing mail-in votes, without providing any substantiated evidence. The president made it clear that without electoral fraud, in his opinion, there would be a continuation of his government rather than a change of power.
Trump also expressed the expectation that the election will finally end in the country’s Supreme Court. That is also the reason why it is so important that the panel is again occupied by nine judges, he added. The question of a quick replacement following the death of previous judge Ruth Bader Ginsburg a few days ago has sparked a fierce dispute. Trump wants to take office as soon as possible, while Democrats and some Republicans are demanding that he wait until after the presidential election.
With the appointment, Trump could cement the conservative orientation of the body of nine people. Of the eight judges who remained after Bader Ginsburg’s death, five are considered conservative. Members are appointed for life. Trump has already been able to fill two new positions during his tenure to date.
“This is how democracy dies”
Biden said in Wilmington, Delaware, according to reporters about Trump’s remarks: “He says the most irrational things. I don’t know what to say. “Senate Democratic Minority Leader Chuck Schumer criticized Trump’s statement on Twitter with the words:” This is how democracy dies. A president who is so desperate to cling to the power he wants commit to a peaceful power shift. “
Trump has already caused a stir in the past by not wanting to commit to accepting an election result. In an interview with Fox News in July, the president said when asked if he would accept the result: “I have to see that.” In the 2016 election campaign, Trump said: “I will fully accept the results of this great and historic presidential election if I win.”
