Biden thinks Trump won’t concede if he loses election: ‘He’ll do anything to try to win’

Joe Biden says that Donald Trump will “do anything” to try and win the 2024 presidential election, and contest the outcome “no matter what the result is”.

Ahead of Super Tuesday on 5 March, a rematch of the 2020 election – pitting the two men against each other – is all but certain, following Mr Trump’s domination of the Republican primaries so far.

In a rare feature interview with The New Yorker, Mr Biden said he believed he was the person “best positioned” to beat Mr Trump at the national polls again.

“I’m the only one who has ever beat him. And I’ll beat him again,” he said, adding rhetorically: “If you thought you were best positioned to beat someone who, if they won, would change the nature of America, what would you do?”

Despite his confidence, supporters continue to voice serious concern about Mr Biden’s age.

A recent poll by The New York Times/Siena College poll has found some 73 per cent of voters believe he is too old to be an effective president.

Some 42 per cent of voters believe Mr Trump is also too old for the job, being just four years younger than Mr Biden and raising eyebrows over the weekend with a string of gaffes.

In his interview with the magazine, the president also discussed the fallout from the insurrection on Capitol Hill on 6 January 2021. A CBS poll back in January 2024 found that half of the respondents believed that the losing side of this year’s election would resort to violence.

Mr Biden told The New Yorker that he believed Americans would reject a “Trumpist” view of politics, but was prepared for the outcome to get ugly.
