On Saturday, Donald Trump again pushed the idea that he will not leave peacefully if he loses the election this year.
Talking to a crowd in Ohio on Saturday, Trump said the following:
“Then they talk about, if you lose will this be a friendly transition. And I said, ‘let me answer your question: When I won did they give me a friendly transfer?’ They spied on my campaign. They did all this stuff. That was not a friendly transition.”
A peaceful transfer of power is the hallmark of a stable democracy, which is why so many leaders ask about it. When Trump was elected, there were protests, but a war never broke out and his supporters weren’t attacked or killed at his inauguration.
Trump’s claims that his campaign was spied on still hasn’t been proven. In fact, PolitiFact has called this claim false.
Take a look at his remarks below:
