Alyssa Griffin says Biden administration should be ready to 'secure Capitol' as Trump may steal elections
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Alyssa Farah Griffin, co-host of 'The View', has expressed concern that former president Donald Trump might try and "steal" the upcoming 2024 election.
Griffin, former Donald Trump administration official, who has since denounced the former president, warned Trump of being man enough to accept the result.
'The View' co-host Joy Behar says Donald Trump is 'whitewashing' January 6 event
'The View' co-host Joy Behar kicked-off the conversation by recalling the January 6 Capitol insurrection and how it affected former vice president Mike Pence on the talk show on October 16.
"We all saw it with our own eyes, even Mike Pence, who needs to come out stronger now, I think," Behar, 82, said.
"His life was on the line. They had a noose ready for him. How do these people that are still following him, follow him? I don't understand the mentality anymore," said Behar, according to OK Magzine!.
Reflecting on the continued support for Trump among certain Republicans, Griffin pointed out how some have changed their stance on the former president.
She noted that there "has been a total rewriting and white-washing" of the events of January 6.
"They completely changed their tune when Donald Trump showed that he's still got some power and still got some support because it was politically advantageous to them," Griffin added.
Alyssa Farah Griffin says Donald Trump will not concede easily
Alyssa Farah Griffin voiced her concern about how Donald Trump will handle potential loss in the 2024 election.
She asked her co-hosts, "If he loses, do you guys honestly think this time he'll take it like a man and just concede and move on?"
She then warned, "He's going to try to steal the election, and the Biden administration needs to be ready to secure the Capitol and state capitals."
The conversation then shifted to the possibility of Kamala Harris winning the election, with 'The View' panel predicting Trump’s reaction.
Co-host Whoopi Goldberg added her thoughts, alleging that Trump would "try to start some poo" if Harris wins in November.
Sunny Hostin believes Donald Trump will deny election results
Sunny Hostin also expressed concerns about what might happen after the election, predicting a contested result if Kamala Harris wins.
"I'm very worried about the fact that I do believe that Kamala Harris will win the popular vote and also win the election, and I think he'll deny if she wins," Hostin said.
She added, "I think we need to be really, really vigilant the weeks after November 5, after the election."
Griffin closed the discussion by contrasting how Harris would likely handle a loss compared to Trump.
"By the way, if he wins, Kamala Harris will concede, and she will likely show up to his inauguration because that's what we do in America. We allow the peaceful transition of power," she remarked.
