When it comes to the unpredictability of the Trump presidency, nothing has been as predictable. That’s why Hillary Clinton is issuing a stern warning ahead of next month’s election. While polls show that former Vice President Joe Biden leads incumbent President Donald Trump by a significant margin, Clinton thinks that if he were to be ousted from office, Trump would not “go quietly.”
While on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah on Monday, Hillary Clinton issued a stern warning about voter suppression. During an episode of the popular The Daily Show, Hillary went further and said that it’s conceivable that there will be a voter suppression campaign to keep people away from the polls or block them from obtaining mail-in ballots. Not only that, but she is concerned about whether Trump will profit again from Russian or Ukrainian election interference.
“Well, I think it is a fair point to raise as to whether or not, if he loses, he’s going to go quietly or not,” she stated. “And we have to be ready for that.”
In recent years, however, the United States Postal Service has proven to be an extremely valuable and secure tool. His claims did not withstand closer examination. However, Trump’s supporters are concerned that foreigners and immigrants will pretend to be citizens and vote in order to support him.
“There have been so many academic studies and other analyses, which point out that it’s just an inaccurate, fraudulent claim,” said Hillary Clinton to Trevor Noah. “There isn’t that problem. All the games that are played … to try and keep the vote down – that’s the real danger to the integrity of our election, that combined with disinformation and misinformation and all the online shenanigans we saw in 2016.”
With a background in American politics that spans decades, Hillary Clinton emphasized, “Republicans have two prongs to their strategy to try to win. The first is: try to prevent many people who they think won’t vote for them from voting. So, make the lines really long, where young people vote of African Americans vote, or Hispanics vote. Try to make a vote by mail as difficult as possible, when in fact, that is how Donald Trump votes and everyone who knows vote by mail understands that.”
Low election turnouts pose a “real danger,” according to Hillary Clinton, because people may be too scared to go to the polls during a pandemic. Lower voter turnout is beneficial for Trump and Republicans since they won using the electoral college rather than the popular vote.
“Look, I want a fair election,” she stated. “If people get to vote and they, for whatever reason, vote for Donald Trump, OK, we’ll accept it. Not happily. But I don’t think that’s what will happen, because I think the more people who can actually get to the polls, whether by mail or in person and get their votes counted, then we are going to have the kind of election we should have. And then it will be a win both in the popular vote and the Electoral College.”
