DONALD Trump has said that the “whole country will be Minneapolis” if he loses the election to Joe Biden.

The president made the comments during a Father’s Day interview with his son, Donald Jr, which aired on Thursday night.

Trump said: “The whole country will be Minneapolis.

“I feel like if the Democrats get in, we are literally going to end up in a recession/depression the likes of which you’ve never seen.”

The city erupted into protests last month following the death of George Floyd.

The 46-year-old died after white cop Derek Chauvin was filmed kneeling on his neck during an arrest.

When riots erupted in Minneapolis, Donald Trump called for “law and order” and sent soldiers from the National Guard to protect the city.

On May 30, the president tweeted: “The National Guard has been released in Minneapolis to do the job that the Democrat Mayor couldn’t do.

“Should have been used 2 days ago & there would not have been damage & Police Headquarters would not have been taken over & ruined. Great job by the National Guard. No games!”

Speaking about his decision in the new interview, Trump said: “When the National Guard went in, it was so beautiful.”

The president then went on to explain, what he believes, would happen if the Republican party are not re-elected in the 2020 presidential election.

“It’s a very sad thing. But I happen to think it’s explaining to people that are getting ready to vote on November 3, that there’s only one answer, and you can’t go back to the bedlam.

“The country, I don’t think would ever recover from it.”

He then added: “The cities that are having trouble are Democratic run cities, meaning Democrats…

“The Democrat-run cities are the ones that are having the trouble.

“It’s a very simple thing.”

The president is set to restart his 2020 campaign on Saturday in Oklahoma.

Trump is set to give a speech at a rally in Tulsa – which will be the first one held amid the coronavirus pandemic.
