without Donald Trump issuing shocking comments or statements that make headlines we are back with another one and this is serious the former US president has warned that he will not accept the election results in Wisconsin this year in in an interview on Wednesday the returning presidential hopeful said that if everything is fair and honest in the election process only then he will accept the results in Wisconsin he said and I’m quoting if I do not believe that the results in November’s election is legitimate you have to fight for the right of the country his comments bring the case of Georgia election overturn back in the spotlight Trump is currently facing criminal charges on several counts for alleged election interference in the southeastern state during 2020 presidential polls Trump is Accused to have pressured Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffine spurger to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential elections when it comes to Wisconsin 2 the former US president claims he is in fact won the election in the Midwestern State in 2020 Trump lost to Biden by about 21,000 votes the Republican leader claims that election was tainted by fraud he also tried to disqualify almost 240,000 ballots cast for Biden but was unsuccessful now this is just one quote from a single interview in a separate interview with Time Magazine a week ago Donald Trump took it up a notch the Republican leader did not rule out the possibility of political violence around the election you saw it last night because said and I’m quoting again that it depends on the fairness of the process Trump’s comments bring back the memories of the infamous Capital Hill rights by Republican supporters who stormed the official building on January 6th 2021 in order to disrupt the Congress session to certify the results of the presidential election which Joe Biden won a mob of trump supporters stormed the chambers of Congress and several buildings in the complex causing damage worth roughly $1.5 million the two remarks in a span of one week beg the question is Donald Trump hinting that he will resort to pressure tactics and political violence if the Mandate does not go his way in the upcoming November presidential elections in the United States [Music] now all of this comes in the middle of a court trial that is currently underway against Donald Trump that is the hush money trial just yesterday we saw Donald Trump returning to the campaign Trail and he very strategically chose the two states of Wisconsin [Music] now to take this further we are being joined by our correspondent Susan terani live from New York Susan good to see you what do you make of these new statements coming in from Donald Trump I think even Trump supporters are concerned that we’re going to see a repeat of all of the drama that we saw in 2020 because of uh the questioning of Elections going to court and all of that but I just want to say that it was only until Donald Trump became president that this issue became quote election denial past presidents almost through every election even local ones you can think of Hillary Clinton Stacy Abrams and Alabama to become governor and others have often questioned the result of Elections before and it’s everyone’s right it’s not a crime uh but I think first of all to the extent that the former president went to when they weren’t able to find anything and whatnot and also because it’s Trump again and he makes headlines you know something like this has become so vast and so big and tied to January 6th that it becomes the issue of election denial uh so you know he was saying that if it’s fair I’ll accept it if it’s not then we have to save the country it is what he believes but I think the majority of Americans really don’t want to see even if Donald Trump is elected H that kind of rhetoric and that path going forward about you know just election integrity and whatnot but I do want to say you know the problem is during the pandemic there were just a lot of rule and Law changes uh that had not just Trump but a lot of people questioning you know whether or not there should just be more monitoring or maybe different kind of uh you know U set of rules for elections all right Susan thank you so much for getting us all those updates from New York all right moving on now as the elections in South Africa inch closes troubles increased between the African National Congress party and former South African president Jacob Zuma in the latest the South Africa’s ruling party formerly notified former president Jacob Zuma of a disciplinary hearing against him the hearing is scheduled for Tuesday at the party’s headquarters thec issued a statement that said that this critical step underscores the party’s dedication to its constitutional principles the ANC suspended Zuma last year after he announced that he will be campaigning for the the newly formed MK party which was the military wing of thec during apath the letter sent to Zuma states that he contravened the party’s Rules by appearing on the Parliamentary list of the MK party that is not affiliated with thec absolutely [Music] F now our correspondent Kalin omu gets us more from Johan B the ANC has set down the date for a disciplinary hearing against former president Jacob Zuma but it is not known whether he will attend the hearing on Tuesday it’s a normal process for an ANC to summon members to a disciplinary hearing if they breach the party line the hearing comes after Zuma declared his support for the umun CES party late last year Zuma remains a member of thec even though the party had suspended him for cont Ving a number of its rules including collaborating with another party recently president s Raposa during his party’s campaign said that Zuma will go through a disciplinary process he will be given an opportunity to argue his case and it is up to the disciplinary committee to make a finding and emphasize that the committee works independently this is Ceno from Johannesburg South Africa for we on world is one now another news Serbia has a new government on Thursday lawmakers voted for a new Coalition after two days of
