The Spin

Democrats support a peaceful transfer of power whether Harris or Trump wins the presidential election, and that Biden will attend the inauguration ceremony regardless of the outcome further proves such a commitment. Meanwhile, Republicans have indicated they will not accept election results if Trump loses.

REven if Biden is well-intentioned and truly believes that this announcement can ease tensions ahead of Election Day, his fellow Democrats are quietly planning how to block Trump from returning to the White House. As they usually do, Democrats will challenge the election in the event of a Republican win.

Metaculus Prediction

There's a 55% chance that the 2024 US presidential election will also be considered fraudulent by the losing party, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
