“The guy is not a democrat with a small d,” the president told CNN’s Erin Burnett.

President Joe Biden said in an interview Wednesday he is all but certain Donald Trump, his predecessor and presumptive 2024 rival, will reject the results of the November election and called Trump “dangerous” for the nation.

“The guy is not a democrat with a small d,” Biden told CNN’s Erin Burnett during a visit to Wisconsin this week.

“How many court cases do they have, Supreme Court cases? They’ve all said this is a totally legitimate election. … He may not accept the outcome of the election? I promise you he won’t. Which is dangerous.”

The president went on to say other world leaders had expressed to him their fear of a second Trump presidency and pointed to Trump’s pledge to prosecute his political opponents if he enters the Oval Office once more.

    That doesn’t seem like a productive way to carry on a conversation. I said I didn’t get your point. Perhaps you could try to explain it to me in another way instead of devolving into insults and unfounded accusations.

      By refusing to consider a user’s post history and therefore blinding yourself to their obvious motivations, you are making a conscious choice to be ignorant.

        I didn’t refuse anything. I said I wasn’t sure what their post history has to do with this one comment, and then immediately got accused of being an alt account.

          lmao I’m always glad when I stumble upon a comment section like this where someone makes it abundantly clear that blocking them will be of no consequence whatsoever because they have absolutely no intention of approaching any discussion in good faith. It saves us all a little hassle, so thanks!

            I got insulted almost immediately and I’m the one who isn’t approaching the conversation in good faith?

              Correct. You are intenionally being ignorant by refusing to see the whole concept. I am quite positive you are the kind of person to say “But I am just asking a question!” when you are being called out to your bs.

                That’s colloquially called sea-lioning, and not what I’m intending to do.

                I think you’re the fifth different person (unless you’re all alts, hardy-har) to reply to me now and still no one has even tried to explain to me what I’m missing.

      Ain’t falling for the bait, champ. It’s clear as day what my point is, and if you can’t see it, then idk what to tell ya. Why is it everyone else gets my point and you’re the only chucklefuck that doesn’t?
