This comes at a time the United States is holding an African-like elections where President Trump is accusing his opponent, Joe Biden, of stealing his votes among other irregularities; however, the South Sudanese president did not bother to comment on the U.S. elections saying he does not like interferring in other countries’ internal affairs.
U.S. headed into peaceful elections two days ago but so far the border lines between the winners and losers especially between Trump and Biden are still quiet uncertain.
While Joe Biden is narrowly leading and he is positive of winning the election, President Donald Trump is worringly complaining of irregularities and filling lawsuits.
Trump’s campaign teams have filled lawsuits in multiple states and cities including Michigan and Georgia but some of their lawsuits have been thrown out due to lack of evidence.
“They are finding Biden votes all over the place — in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan. So bad for our Country!” Trump wrote in a tweet Wednesday morning.
“They are working hard to make up 500,000 vote advantage in Pennsylvania disappear — ASAP. Likewise, Michigan and others!” he added in a subsequent tweet that Twitter labeled as promoting misinformation about the electoral process.
