NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: First Lady Jill Biden claimed reelecting Donald Trump as the President of the United States may lead to the end of many rights enjoyed by Americans, during her appearance on the May 29 episode of 'The View.'

Joining co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Sara Haines, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, and Alyssa Farah Griffin at the Hot Topics table to promote her new book, 'Willow the White House Cat,' Dr Biden expectedly addressed the upcoming general elections, which is expected to be a rematch between incumbent Joe Biden and the presumptive GOP nominee Trump after 2020.

Jill Biden warns against Donald Trump returning as president

Mentioning that women voters would play a crucial role in the 2024 elections, co-host Haines inquired, "We’ve heard Trump bragging about stripping women’s reproductive rights, 14 states have a total ban on abortion, and now IVF is under attack. How dangerous is this time for women and how much worse can it get under a second, or third ... Trump presidency?"

"Well, it could get a lot worse under a Trump presidency," responded Dr Biden. "I mean, you have to believe him when he uses words like ‘dictator,’ ‘bloodbath,’ ‘third term,’ ‘violence.’ We’ve seen it, so when he says these words, believe him. Don’t think this isn’t going to happen."



 

"And women’s rights? Absolutely, women’s rights and IVF," she continued. "I mean, we have to have a choice, and Joe (Biden) wants to codify (Roe v Wade) and we have to. We have to fight hard so we get it back because, (co-host Behar), you and I remember when Roe became the law, and we kept thinking, ‘Oh, this won’t be taken away.’ But we cannot take things for granted, because they can."

Jill Biden's concern over conservatives becoming Supreme Court justices

While discussing the necessity to fight for the conservation of human rights, Dr Biden brought up the subject of Supreme Court justices, stating, "Think of the Supreme Court for God’s sake. Talk about things getting worse. Can you imagine if we put any more Republicans on the Supreme Court? No!"



 

"We will lose all of our rights. So we’re talking about women’s rights, gay rights... I mean we will lose our rights to freedom," she said, agreeing with co-host Goldberg as she interjected "Voting rights... all these are at stake.
