During a fundraising event on Thursday, President Joe Biden revealed that two journalists privately told him that they would be forced to leave the country if Trump won the upcoming election after he threatened them with jail.
The President made the revelation as he addressed journalist Katie Couric who was among about 60 guests to attend Bob Klein’s fundraiser.
“Katie, there’s two of your former colleagues, not at the same network, told me personally that if he wins they have to leave the country because he’s threatened to put them in jail,” Biden said.
“We can’t take anything for granted. Trump and his friends are trying to divide us.”
“I promised I wouldn’t name them,” he added. “It doesn’t say much about political courage. It says what the state of the party is right now.”
