People argue against excluding #Trump from the election because he needs to be defeated at the ballot box.
Trump‘s response:
While discussing the U.S. economy and its auto industry, Mr. Trump promised to place tariffs on cars manufactured abroad if he won in November.
„Now, if I don’t get elected, (…) it’s going to be a blood bath for the country” and “I don’t think you’re going to have another election, or certainly not an election that’s meaningful.”
